A look at all of the anatomy homeostatic responses that the body has. Each section has a lab or calculations

This hands-on lesson introduces students to gardening and the sustainability of food. Students will grow small gardens and manage them.

This lesson assumes prior knowledge of basic electricity and magnetism concepts and focuses deeply on Induction. Levels adjusted 9 - 12, dual enrollment and AP Physics.

In this hands-on lesson, students create solid fuel rockets to explore the idea of parabolic motion and outside factors which can affect the path of a rocket. This lesson has enrichment involving the

In this engaging lesson, students will connect the path of a straw rock to the arc of a parabola. By changing the angle of the launcher, they will discover the relationship between distance and height

A lesson on what diabetes is, what is the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, creating a food diary, how the sugar gets into cells, how to count carbs, how people with Type 1 diabetes

Intro to magnets purpose: students engage in practical experimentation. The primary objective of this lesson is to acquaint students with the concept that magnetic force can either draw objects closer

A look at the effects of dehydration and over hydration on the body and electrical conductivity of the heart. A look at what electrolytes are, basic heart rhythms seen on an EKG and how the heart

This is the third lesson in a 4-lesson unit about the physics of bat and ball style games. Students will explore force, motion, kinetic energy and potential energy through projects and gameplay. In

Students will collect and analyze data demonstrating how electromagnetic forces can be attractive or repulsive in this lesson. They test different items using a magnetic wand. Students will carry out

With this hands-on lesson, students will compare and contrast the growth of plants cultivated in an SPV lab environment with those grown in natural sunlight, understanding the impact of light sources

In this primary Kindergarten-1st grade STEM lesson, students will learn to define algorithm, bug, and debug in reference to programming. Through engagement with a virtual simulation, students will

Students will understand the concept of levers as simple machines and will identify and classify everyday objects as levers. Students will apply basic mathematical concepts to measure and compare the

Student will be able to compare the energy content of two common fuels used for energy production (ethanol and kerosene). Students will work with a partner to investigate the efficiency and

This is the first of two lessons. The focus is to engage students in the hands-on activity of growing corn in water and study the germination process. Students will discuss and learn about the

Create potential for masses or charges. Students get to create 3D models of these potential and gain a deeper qualitative representation of why masses or charge move towards lowest potential.

This set of lessons allows students to model the decay chains of radioactive isotopes and relate the mathematical patterns and scientific concepts together in a innovative and interactive way.

The lesson is primarily about building a Lego or any block tower with a good foundation. This can be done in a group of 5 - 7 students. In my case I am considering 7th and 8th grade class to perform

Over the course of the next 15 days, students will have the opportunity to create a sourdough starter using a one of six different flours provided. This lesson focuses on one of the data collection

An investigation into the function and uses of solar panels in agriculture - Agrivoltaics. Exploring how to get the most efficient use of your solar panels for your gardens.

In this engaging lesson, "Exploring Gravitational and Electromagnetic Forces," students embark on a captivating journey to uncover the unseen yet powerful forces that shape our world. Beginning with

Get ready to engage with some hands-on activities that will illustrate the mechanics of calculating both kinetic and potential energy and unravel the equations for these essential parts of physics.
