Students will use the Sphero Indi's to navigate across the table or floor using the colored tiles. Students will learn basic sequencing and pattern recognition based off the different colored pads

This lesson, is one to make your students taste buds jump for joy as they get to create their very own edible eyeball cookie. This is a great STEM lesson to use when learning about the parts and

Using the Sphero Bolts/Sparks to joust as a Medieval Knight. Students will understand the basics of Sphero Bolt and its programming environment.

In this engaging and interactive lesson, students explore adaptation and creative problem-solving. Inspired by "The Great Turkey Race," students will engage in a hands-on engineering lesson to design

Students will go through the process of counting pumpkin seeds and analyzing data through mean, median and mode as well as creating correlating graphs. Students will learn what causes fruit

This lesson includes academic areas for ELA, math, and coding. The lessons are completed with students in small groups effectively using their collaboration skills to completed the assingments and

Students will read the story "If I Built a House" and then record their elements of the story on index cards. Next they will design and build a House of Cards using index cards.

This lesson is to be used as a follow up activity when learning about the water cycle. Students are able to play a game either digitally or physically to demonstrate their own journey through the

This is the 3rd lesson in a 4 part roller coaster project for 6th grade. In this lesson, students will design and build a roller coaster that fits the criteria and follows a budget. Students will

Students will use the projects from lessons 2 and 3 to analyze the data of the electric cars they made. They will identify the variables in their cars and plan improvements to their designs.

This is the second lesson in a four part roller coaster project for 6th grade. In this lesson, students will learn about friction and gravity. Students will test different materials to determine which

This lesson uses the knowledge of circuits (lessons 1 and 2) to make a battery-powered car. We used a tutorial from Tinkercad and designed our own body of a car. Then, I printed their cars. They

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

In this lesson, students will explore the different pigments in green plants using spinach leaves. Students will identify the pigments by doing a lab using paper chromatography. They will observe the

Students will create a Google slideshow presentation to document their progress through the engineering design process, which includes: researching the science of sound, then creating an instrument

Students will have fun building and testing with KidSpark observing and calculating forces such as load and effort.

The owl pellet dissection is an engaging lesson where students will be looking closely at regurgitated pellets and discovering energy transfer through the owl and their prey. Students will be creating

After learning about emission spectra, electron energy levels, orbitals and configurations, and periodic trends for atomic radius and ionization energy; this is concluding activity that require

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

Students will read and respond to the story, Room on the Broom. Then students will plan and create a sturdy broom to hold as many pumpkin candies as possible.

The math and research of hot cocoa. Students will find or use a teacher provided hot cocoa recipe and practice working with fractions to increase or decrease the recipe yield.

In the 5th-grade Paper Plane Aerodynamics lesson, students embark on an exciting journey into the world of flight. Through hands-on activities, they explore the fundamental principles of aerodynamics

Students will use geometric reasoning and the engineering design process to construct solar ovens while learning about renewable energy.
