STEM Lesson Plans

In this lesson, students will extract chlorophyll from spinach leaves and make different concentrations following the dilution method. Students will learn to compare the absorbance values obtained at

This is a phenomena-based introduction to how emission spectra of elements and the connection to electrons and energy levels. Students first get to explore the emission spectra of several gases using

In this project, students will choose an environmental problem to research. They will look up why this problem is occurring and how it is harming the environment. Students will then come up with two

I use this lesson as a fun activity to visualize unit conversions and the immense scale of the universe. I love this lesson because I find it challenging to teach unit conversions with hands-on

Students are given data and are required to graph the data, analyze the data to determine the carrying capacity of four different organisms.

Built as a month long, end of year project, students get to discover the water quality of several geographically different natural water sources by completing field research and data collection. As a

This is the first lesson in a set of four where students work to design a native plant garden using rainwater harvesting principles. In this first lesson, students learn about the ongoing water crisis

This lesson falls within our unit learning about the elements of the periodic table, how it is arranged and what trends exist within it. This lesson asks students to apply their knowledge of chemical

This lesson uses a Modeling Instruction approach to experimental design and analysis leading students to develop the graphical and mathematical relationships for accelerated motion, or kinematics.

This is a two-day introductory lab exercise using video analysis to derive the equations that govern projectile motion. It employs elements of Modeling Instruction to engage students in doing science.

Students get to discover the relationship between solutes and solvents in relation to concentration. As an inquiry based lab, students will mix their own concentrations of Kool-Aid or other powdered

Growing Crystals Part 2 is a unique lesson that has an emphasis on the synthetic growing of crystals in the laboratory. This activity also focuses on investigating the process of how synthetic

GROWING CRYSTALS PART 1, A lesson that focuses on the different types of formation of crystalline solid, its properties and the attractive forces responsible to it during chemical bonding. It is

In this lesson students will identify what groundwater flow is, how it affects our water shed and do a two part experiment tying all the information learned in the lesson into a hands-on experience.

In this lesson plan the students learn to design, construct and determine weight loads capabilities for their project.

Students who have been studying logarithms can apply them using a chemistry lab to discover the pH of acetic acid (white vinegar) and even compare this to other acids.

THE PHYSICS BEHIND RC PLANE This lesson plan focuses on the following standards : HS.P3U2.7 Use mathematics and computational thinking to explain how Newton’s laws are used in engineering and
