STEM Lesson Plans

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

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

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.

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 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

Students learn about abstract art and engineering design techniques. Students put them to use by creating a cardboard abstract likeness of themselves. They also use video to record their presentation

Students from the Trigonometry class can construct the Sundial and see the Experimental application of Trigonometry. Student will not just delve into the trigonometry, but they will also see the

Students will research, design and build a treehouse using the engineering design process. They will practice budgeting by pretending to have $100 to spend by using a supply budget sheet. Students

In this lesson, students review key architecture components found in Ancient Greek Architecture and are challenged to create a multi-layer structure to hold their body weight. Students use the

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

Students design getaway vehicles for the Grinch, applying STEM concepts. Math, creativity, and teamwork merge in this engaging lesson inspired by Dr. Seuss.

This lesson is designed to promote hands-on, project-based learning that connects various disciplines. It emphasizes the importance of real-world applications and encourages students to think

Students will learn about Newton's Third Law of Motion and practice this law by using the engineering design process to create a paper jet engine using a balloon.

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

Day one, Students will learn the history of the boomerang. Force and motion misconceptions when using the boomerang. Then day two, the students will engineer and design their boomerang. Finally, the

In this activity, students will build a shelter that protects them (cotton balls) from a volcanic eruption of lava and ash.

Students create a scale model representing earth's history in order to analyze how life has changed on earth over time.

This lesson walks students through the movement of air in the atmosphere and the energy that drives it. It contains a PowerPoint, activity, worksheet and assessment.

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

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.
