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.
This lesson plan engages students in beginner composting. Students will discuss, design, and create a homemade composter. The lesson will also engage students in collecting and recording data to
This two day Mini-Unit will take students through observations of cats and their own physical characteristics. Students will graph data and potentially create a bar graph to reflect their observations
This lesson is for 2nd-5th grade students. It covers a range of AZ science standards and connects to math, reading, and social studies concepts. It also incorporates STEAM hands on activities to
Students will learn about the community in Yuma, AZ. We will read Roxaboxen and talk about the theme, Community. Students will use the design process to create a model and pitch it for a new park
The quintessential chemistry lab, Flame Test Lab! Students will use spectroscopes to identify the component photons of light that are emitted from Spectrum Tubes and Flame Tests. Students will learn
What lives underground? Kinder- 2nd grade students will dig into the life found underground in this 3-part series. In this lesson, students will dig underground to extract soil, investigate/evaluate
Students will show how mass affects velocity (distance/time). Multiple variables can be changed to provide a story representing Newtons Laws in action.
The lesson plan challenges students to integrate research, agricultural principles, and engineering concepts, sparking their creativity in designing efficient and sustainable hydroponic setups. From
Students will discover the Empirical Formula for the synthesis of Magnesium and Oxygen through a laboratory experiment in which they will react Magnesium Ribbon with atmospheric Oxygen by super
Students will understand the concept of Scoville units, learn about the scale's origin, and explore the factors contributing to the heat of peppers. They will also engage in hands-on activities to
Students work together to measure the lengths and angles of a maze in order to create a scale drawing of it. They then use EdScratch to program their Edison robots to navigate the maze.
This lesson is all about scale factor with a literature connection. Students will be drawing different items to scale. There is a Three Act Math, a DESMOS activity, and a Quizizz link to go along with
A Makerspace experience for the Holidays! (Part 2) Students are invited to launch their very own startup business just in time for the holidays! In your Makerspace group, invite students to brand
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 collaborate to design a school map to include living and nonliving 3 dimensional objects. Students will use a Cubetto or Sphero device to navigate through a student created map
Students work their way through the first two parts of the engineering process in order to get a deeper understanding of an environmental problem- trash. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is certainly
Students will get the opportunity to engage in scientific research, studying sustainability and fuel options, while creating models to represent their knowledge.
This lesson introduces students to coding with Edison Robots and EdScratch. The coding skills that are required for this lesson are basic, and will help students complete Part 2 of this lesson "Animal
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
Students will apply STEM principles to design and build a working circuit in the shape of a heart, incorporating science concepts, technology tools, engineering skills, and mathematical calculations.
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 will learn about and discuss the life cycle of a butterfly. They will then get 10 shapes total from the teacher (circles and squares). They will use their math skills to make
