A Makerspace experience for the Holidays! Students are invited to launch their very own startup business just in time for the holidays! In your Makerspace group, invite students to brand, create a
Students will use evidence from an investigation to model and explain how thermal expansion of land and sea ice impact the sea level. They will quantify the impact of land ice melt and thermal
In this lesson, students are introduced to the use of synthetic pigments (biomimicry) in things they use everyday to make art. Students use solvents to separate colors and study chromatography in
Students will create an interactive soundboard (assistive technology) to support students in lower grade levels with skills such as math, reading, or language. They will use Makey Makey to support the
In this kindergarten computer science lesson, students explore algorithms through a playful "Looping Train Adventure," connecting everyday actions to the way computers follow instructions in a
Students will get the opportunity to engage in scientific research, studying sustainability and fuel options, while creating models to represent their knowledge.
Students use research and observations to plan an ideal area for our school chickens. Students build the needed structures and work together to create the chickens' home.
In this geometry/coding lesson, students embark on an exciting journey with Elsa and Anna from Frozen using Code.org. The lesson introduces fundamental coding concepts through interactive puzzles and
In this lesson, students will explore how temperature and pressure can each affect the states of matter. Students will develop a plan and a hypothesis, and will the conduct their experiment to analyze
In this lesson students learn about absorbency and are introduced to the colorful world of tie-dying as a way to recycle stained shirts.
This hands-on lesson, allows students to make observations and draw conclusions based on their own crystal growth experiments. It combines literacy and science to give the students the opportunity to
This lesson plan is about structures that are balanced using tension forces. Students will create their own tensegrity structure that will withstand a predetermined amount of weight. Students will
This is best for high school AP/IB/Honors Biology students for using clay and miscellaneous items to model and then film their model of Cellular Respiration to better understand how the Electron
In this lesson students will use the Engineering Design Process to create a working foosball table. Students will also code a Micro:bit that they will use to keep score between the two teams.
Calculating Moles to gram of multiple different compounds to make playdough. Includes easy and advanced practice problems (with answers) and teacher background knowledge. Basic easy ingredients are
Students use test strips and research to solve the issue of a fish death in our classroom tank. This would also work well for the initial setup of a tank. Students see a tangible, observable, real
Get your students up and moving! Together, you and your students will move and create a model of the solar system. Your kinesthetic learners will love this lesson! The solar system comes to life
Students will learn the history of rainsticks. They will engineer and design their rainstick. Students have to figure out how much rice, beans and corn goes inside to make the sound of rain. Finally
Students use an interactive map and ArcGIS software to analyze the impacts of climate change on global populations.
Students have the opportunity to explore solar energy and the engineering process by creating solar ovens. This lesson integrates communication skills, the engineering process, data collection, and
Lesson explores compounds, mixtures and solutions, defining each and what distinguishes them from each other. Students complete a lab as an introduction, use a PowerPoint to refine their knowledge and
Students measure the temperature of water as it cools to learn about heat transfer and thermal properties while using line of best fit, linear regressions and/or quadratic regressions.
A lesson to teach students how to collect, organize, interpret data, make inferences, raise awareness, and suggest possible solutions on the water quality of the waterbodies in the state of Arizona.
Students will solve mysteries using a digital scale, systems of equations, and their ingenuity! It enhances problem-solving skills and understanding of mathematical concepts.
