List of Materials- Science Notebook, Pencil/Pen, Reflection Questions Summary- Students are reflection and revising their egg drop protectors from the previous lesson. Agenda- Reflect on the first egg

Summary- Students will redesign their egg protector for trial 2, record their observations, and respond to overall reflection questions for the project. Materials- Science Notebook Pencil/Pen

In this lesson, students will identify the significance of the shapes found in and around their home. Making these connections will provide a real-world framework to their understanding of mathematics

In this unit, students will study the effects of atmospheric pressure and air resistance on objects to engineer a landing apparatus to land cargo in space. They will then write a Claim based on

In this engaging lesson, students will use 2-3 days to build a land yacht with Lego BricQ sets. They will test different winds and angles, and then use their lab to introduce Newton's third law of

In this engaging lesson, students build a catapult using spoons, popsicle sticks and rubber bands. Students will be able to describe what a catapult is, the use, and vocabulary words.

Students will learn about the physics of motion and force and use those to create a mini-golf course hole that has obstacles and an environmental awareness theme.

This lesson plan focuses on the following standards : HS.P3U2.7 Use mathematics and computational thinking to explain how Newton’s laws are used in engineering and technologies to create products to

This lesson plan will focus on different fun and engaging activities pertaining to one of the most complicated standards in physics, which is projectile motion. At the end of this lesson students are

In this lesson, students will learn about air resistance, friction, and Newton's Second Law of Motion. They will then collaborate and communicate effectively with their peers to complete an

This lesson plan is designed for students to investigate the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration. The lesson starts with a phenomena video and hypothesis question. It is followed by a

This lesson will explore aerodynamics, rocketry, and principles of space flights. Students will act as engineers. Their job is to research, plan, design, and build a water bottle rocket that will

This lesson provides an engaging STEM project by making a catapult. The goal is to shoot a pingpong ball in a basket. Student's knowledge on forces and engineering design processes are essential to

This STEM activity is designed to explore force, motion, friction, and speed with a student-friendly and engaging activity. Students will plan and create a marble maze using simple materials. Material

This lesson will provide students with hands-on experience to design a roller coaster that will demonstrate transformation and conservation of mechanical energy. Students will learn the concept of

This lesson plan is the nitty-gritty principles of roller coaster. It can be taught and used for 4th grade and 5th grade students. The first part of the lesson is the discussion of the principles

This lesson plan focuses around 4 key topics, with activities for each. The plan covers renewable energy, solar energy, why solar energy is important, and what the children can do to conserve energy

Students will design and create a working, themed pinball machine that follows specified constraints and utilizes Makerspace materials. As students design they will be studying social studies, math

Students will use multiple modes of learning to learn about how force is affected by mass changes. The book Newton and Me will be read aloud and used for a discussion. Finally students will construct

In this lesson students will discuss how contact forces cause energy to be transferred and objects to move. They will learn that sound waves involve contact forces. Students will consider how contact

This lesson uses a Modeling Instruction approach to developing the graphical and mathematical relationships for Circular Motion for students in Grades 9-12. Students design an experiment, collect data

In this hands-on lesson, students will work together to build a system where energy is transferred between objects for as long as possible (i.e. Newton’s Cradle). Students continue the work that began

Students gain a deeper understanding of the concepts of balanced and unbalanced forces in this lesson. They will be able to identify the effects that balanced and unbalanced forces have on the motion

This is Task 1 (Lesson 1) of four tasks (lessons) of an overall project of “Escaping 7th Grade Science Room.” Students will be constructing a mini zip-line after reviewing concepts. Students will
