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

Students work as engineers using the Engineering Design Process to design and create a parachute that will safely land a "rover" on Mars! This STEM activity uses easy-to-gather materials for parachute

In this lesson your second grade students will create a sun dial and track the movement of the sun in the sky and shadows on the ground. This lesson incorporates student objectives of reading and

In this lesson the students will apply the knowledge of thermal energy to design, build and test a container that keeps cold beverages cold.

In this lesson the students will explore the formation of rocks as the result of the flow of energy and cycling of matter within Earth.

In this lesson the students will determine the factors that affect the strength of electric and magnetic forces.

Today students will design a mini golf hole. Their hole theme should be based on the inventor they researched.

In this lesson, students will use measurement to track the growth of their plants. This lesson includes an editable one page mini-book for each student or pair of students to track growth of their

In this lesson, students will collect flower and leaf samples from around their school campus and return to the lab to conduct chromatography to separate pigments in their samples. Students will learn

In this lesson you will have the opportunity to have students build a domain from the movie/book The One and Only Ivan. Students will have the chance to build and rebuild their domain if needed. As

Students will develop and create a sail option that will propel their lego cars.

The students will construct a tower with only the given materials. They will receive a certain amount of raw spaghetti noodles and miniature marshmallows. The groups will compete to have the tallest

This lesson plan describes the different process points of construction of a Truss Bridge and why these bridges are useful. This lesson plan includes objectives, assessments and some samples of Truss

Students will learn the factors that cause climate change. They will learn that the increase in temperature can affect human populations.

Students will use solar panels to transfer solar energy to a fountain. Students will be able to explore and demonstrate the functioning of a solar energy fountain.

Students will use solar panels to convert solar energy into electricity. This solar energy is transmitted through cables to the motor and then to the fountain. The fountain pressure increases and
