STEM Lesson Plans

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

In this lesson students will learn about weathering and erosion. They will also plant seeds to take home and to also grow at school. The lesson title is Gardening from School to Home Lesson #3.

The mutants have been in danger because of a bacteria. You will create a new X-men to save them all.

Students will research and understand bird evolution. They will identify the functions of body parts and ecosystems. They will predict evolutionary changes that a specific bird will go through and the

Designed for three hour-long before-school STEAM Club for scholars from Kindergarten to Fourth Grades. This lesson plan can also be used for fifth-seventh grade scholars. Scholars will learn about

This first grade lesson includes the life cycle and survival of a seed. Students will participate in observing the life cycle of a seed, asking questions, writing about the life cycle, and listening

Four 60 minutes class periods (dependent on student’s coding experience and ability) What are the parts of a plant? What is pollination? What parts are involved in pollination? What happens when a bee

This lesson compares and contrasts different hydroponic systems and their benefits and setbacks. Then, the plan walks the students through the hands-on activity of creating a Kratky bin for hydroponic

This lesson provides opportunities for students to immerse themselves into the world of Jurassic Park. The students will read the novel, Jurassic Park and be able to research one of the dinosaurs

1. Present the project and explain the basic steps that the students will be completing over the next 2 to 3 class periods. • The students will be working and pretending that they work for an

Students will use jelly beans to model the variation that results from sexual reproduction. They will use Punnett Squares to practice probability.

This lesson takes place in as classroom for one or more 60 minute class periods. The data collection portion may continue for 2+ weeks (or whatever time frame you decide). An emphasis is placed on the

In this unit, students will study the effects of air pollution and engineer an environmentally friendly air filter to reduce pollutants in the air using common household items and recycled materials

Summary: Today we will identify the most common types of fingerprint patterns, demonstrate how to lift fingerprints off varying surfaces, analyze how fingerprints play a role in solving a crime

In this lesson, students will be measuring the dimensions of the classroom, then calculating its perimeter, area, volume and (optional) surface area. Then they will participate in a design challenge

Students develop an understanding of patterns and how genetic information is passed from generation to generation. They also develop the understanding of how genetic information and environmental

Students will be go on a nature walk, notice nature, and increase their observation skills. Students will be able to identify different plant types and make connections to the plant’s needs: sunlight

Students will learn about energy and how it relates to growing plants. Materials needed: copy of parent signature form, student handbook. Agenda: What is Energy? What is the rule of energy? Try to

This lesson investigates that a solar panel can change energy from sunlight into electrical energy and water flows out of the fountain. With the use of protractor, students will figure out the best

Summary - Students will be identifying the structures and functions of plant reproductive parts. Materials - Flowers, scissors, magnifying lenses, resource materials (internet/textbook)

This is the second lesson in the series of lessons comparing how garden growing techniques determine plant growth/production. In this lesson, students will research the best types of plants to grow

Summary Today we will understand the stages of the bean cycle from seed to plant. Today we will learn the importance of each stage in the growth of a bean plant. Today we will predict the life cycles

This would be an end of the unit project. Students would need prior knowledge about animal adaptations and biomes/habitats. I use Flipgrid, but you could use any other video app or website. Magazine

Lesson is on how weather and climate can impact planting. Agenda What is weather? What is climate? What is the difference between weather and climate? How will knowing about weather and climate help
