This lesson uses knowledge gained in parts 1 and 2 of this lesson. This lesson can be done independently if you do not have the other materials. Students will use many types of Snap Circuit sets to
Students take on the roll of working for an ad agency, creating a new experience that tours the human body. Students will pick one body system and create an entertainment venue that has attractions
Using the Binary alphabet, students will create secret messages that may be found on Valentine's candy hearts.
Students will use the Edison Robot as a base to create a robot capable of drawing a circle on a piece of paper. Design, modification, testing, and collaboration are all in the hands of the students
This lesson includes slides sharing an introduction to 3D printing and how it works. Students will then research ways 3D printing is used in the real world.
In this five days lesson plan or a class project, I used a picture book, "Seeds of Change: Exploring Wangari Maathai's Tree-Planting Efforts". This lesson plan is great for 6th -8th-grade students. In
In this lesson students will demonstrate their deeper understanding of how the concept of slope is applied to the real-world construction of the wheelchair access ramp. Students will use the knowledge
In this lesson, students will combine the fields of coding and robotics with music to program an Ozobot to "sing" a familiar song. Students will learn about music concepts such as notes and octaves
In this lesson, students will participate in a hands-on activity to learn about area and perimeter while also learning about structures and functions of plants by designing a garden space that
In this introductory 5E lesson to organism adaptations, 5th grade students examine the case of the peppered moth to answer two inquiry questions: 1. (to Explore) Can organism’s traits help it in its
Methane emissions are far more potent then CO2 emissions in the short-run in the atmosphere yet this is rarely covered in the media. Students will create a multi-media public service campaign to cover
Using the Engineering Design Process, students work in teams to create a covered wagon that the Bee-Bot pulls as they program on a mat from Missouri to Oregon. Students are learning about the Western
Students will create an airplane model that goes the fastest and farthest from point A to Point B and collect data of their experiment. To create a multimedia presentation showing the design of each
Students examine the relationship between a ball's bounce height and its drop height to see a linear relationship. They then calculate the slope of their data to compare "bounciness" with other groups
Students think about dipping a cube in paint, then count the amount of faces that are painted (either 1, 2, 3, or none) they then make a table with the data and are asked to find any patterns they may
Students will construct paper bridges with pennies acting as weight to see the proportionality between the amount of pennies it takes to collapse the bridge. Students graph their results to see a
Using Vernier motion sensor technology (not included) students will model their position vs time on Vernier Graphical Analysis.
Students will first build and collect data on how fast their solar car is. Then students can change items to increase the efficiency of the solar panel to increase the overall speed of the solar car.
Students will increase efficiency of the solar panels by using angles. Students are given a solar panel, protractor, and a multimeter. They need to complete a pre- investigation plane before they
Rad Roller Coasters Part 2 comes at the end of our paper roller coaster project. Students will collect data on their coaster and use that to calculate velocity, potential energy and kinetic energy
Learning how to plot coordinates using Lego Prime Educational Set. This lesson integrates technology and mathematics.
Students will learn about the history of the Ferris wheel while engineering their own out of Popsicle sticks. Students may work individually to create their own spinning ferris wheel An emphasis on
What is a geometric shape? Observe and discuss a variety of geometric shapes. Similar/different? Mathematical geometry vocabulary/activities with shapes Engineering a geometric playground Share or
This lesson will implement chain reactions and simple machines into a Rube Goldberg invention. Students will learn about the Rube Goldberg and his crazy inventions. They will then create their own
