STEM Lesson Plans

Before we can have a school garden, we need a place to put one. The task given to the students is to find a location on campus to place a garden with specific specifications. They will plan a garden

This is a solar panel investigation lesson using mini solar panels from Agrivoltaics Kits provided from U of A. Students will investigate how the direction and angle impacts voltage output.

This is a four-part lesson that will guide students in groups to create a trackless dark ride. A dark ride is a ride where engineers utilize characters, scenes, and music to tell a story to the rider

Students will solder a solar panel, dc motor, propeller to a cap and produce cool air using solar energy.

In this lesson plan students will use fractions to design a space for a flock of chickens. Using only 2 Items they will have everything they need for this lesson.

Students learn about passive solar energy and design and build a model of a passive solar house.

Use the Edison robots to tell a story from the perspective of an immigrant/emigrant moving through the US during the time period of 1700-to 1900 as it fits 5th grade Social Science Standards. Students

Explore the design world of American architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Students will gain an understanding of Frank Llyod Wright's organic design philosophy and view a variety of his architectural designs

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

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

Introduction to Robotic programming using the Wonder Cue robot with the blaster. Using Block coding or Javascript, teach the students to create a series of instructions that move the robot through a

Students will build an obstacle course for a robot to traverse using geometry concepts. They will build prisms & cylinders and calculate volume and surface area. Once their obstacle course is built

Students will calculate the better buy to fill a gardening cube with soil. They will need internet access and/or store ads. They will also need to have completed the volume of their gardening cube

In this lesson plan students will show and cultivate their creativity while using the concepts of math and technology by designing their dream house from Sketchup to Graph. Materials: Oversized Graph

Students calculate the Pythagorean Theorem using the Grid Edison Robot Mat. They discover that the shortest distance is the straight line from point to point. The numbers obtained are then used to

Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions

Students will read the novel, "The Lion of Mars", design & launch paper rockets, and then design a sustainable Mars Colony inspired by the novel.

The purpose of this lesson is to introduce and apply the concept of frequency. Students will be begin by a motivating “click the mouse” challenge. This will help them to develop the concept of

This lesson is an introduction to CAD, possibly leading up to 3D printing. The idea is to be familiar with CAD and more specifically the TinkerCAD application.

In this lesson students will define what a garden is and what it needs to grow. Students will illustrate the parts of a seed. Students will plant a mini soil garden and create a gardening journal.
