Students are constructing a cardboard control vehicle. Throughout this process, they will practice working with circuits and motors. In this lesson, students will begin working on the electrical
Students are constructing a cardboard remote control vehicle. Throughout this process, they will practice working with circuits and motors.
In this lesson students model a fast change to Earth's surface by creating a landslide and a slow change to Earth's surface by simulating coastal erosion.
This lesson includes various activities involving the investigation of why the moon changes shapes. It is a hand's on lesson about how and why the moon phases occur. It also includes a design and
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
Students will be able to identify, understand and describe acute, obtuse, right, scalene, isosceles and equilateral triangles and use this knowledge to perform at the Sphero Rodeo! This lesson
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
Students will go through the engineering design process to come up with a product that will solve a real life problem. By the end of the unit, students will design their product, make their product
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
This lesson is designed for students to derive the rules for circuits in series by experimenting with different variables in simple circuits in series using the PhET DC Electricity simulation lab.
This project sets students up to explore animal anatomy and physiology with the idea of replacing a lost appendage (beak, leg, tail, fin, etc.) This is used in small groups of 2 or 3 over the course
In this lesson students use a pHet simulation to derive Ohm's law.
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
Students will use evidence from an investigation to model and explain how thermal expansion of land and sea ice impact the sea level. They will quantify the impact of land ice melt and thermal
Have you wanted to set up a STEM Night at your school? This has all the documents and stations that we used at our 5th grade Family STEM Night.
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
