In this lesson students will use Tinkercad to design a puzzle piece that will be used in the Escape Room from the previous lesson. This can be used as a stand alone lesson or in conjunction with the

In this lesson students will design a rough and final draft of an escape room using scale factor and ratios. Students will also create an escape plan using math at the level of the teachers choosing

This lesson will help students learn how to code on micro:bits and create on this mini coding board. Students do not need the physical micro:bit to complete this lesson. On the website, there is a

Students will learn about kinetic and potential energy and how energy transfers. They will use that knowledge in order to collaborate with peers to create a roller coaster that will demonstrate this

The lesson is primarily about building a Lego or any block tower with a good foundation. This can be done in a group of 5 - 7 students. In my case I am considering 7th and 8th grade class to perform

After listening to the story Gingerbread Cowboy, students will use the Engineering Design Process to build a bridge for the Gingerbread Cowboy to safely cross the river.

In this lesson, students uses a PhET simulation to investigate the types of energy and its conservation. They then perform an actual experiment to prove or disprove their findings from the simulation.

Students will be working on enlarging a candy wrapper using the grid technique.

In this lesson, students will listen to the story "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" in order to understand the engineering project. Students will be introduced to the science concept of force and

Students studying 18th century portraits and way of life for diverse people in the founding era will use AI photo generators to create portraits of themselves. They will use the generation of their
