STEM Lesson Plans

This STEM lesson is designed to explore electrical circuits and engage in a hands-on activity to create, label, and identify the differences between parallel and series circuits. Students will develop

Aerospace to Sports explores the concept of how aerospace engineering has impacted sports, specifically exploring the design of golf balls. Students learn about how the industry employs engineering

Students will ask questions to obtain information about the purpose of weather forecasting to prepare for, and respond to, severe weather.

This is the second lesson plan that goes with the series of four lesson plans for the book Song for a Whale by Lynne Kelly. This lesson focuses on vibrations, sounds, and music. The final project is

This lesson includes literacy, math, and art about snowflakes. Within math, students will dive into an analysis of angles within a common snowflake. Students will listen to an informational text 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

What are the parts of a plant? What is pollination? What parts are involved in pollination? What happens when a bee or another pollinator flies from flower to flower? Why is pollination important? How

This lesson plan is designed to teach students about Newton's 3rd Law of Motion through hands-on experimentation. Students will build cars and test the effects of collisions to gain a deeper

Students will create 3D Models of a water form. Learners will record a photo of their model, write and type or record information about their model via iPad or tablet. Students will record a learning

This lesson explores how cars can be designed to ensure the safety of children passengers. Through a read- aloud, the students will see how a young child was able to design a car in the story "If I

This is a modified version of the popular Birthday Polynomial project for Algebra 2/ Pre-Calculus. Students create and analyze a polynomial and its first and second derivatives using technology.

Students who have been studying logarithms can apply them using a chemistry lab to discover the pH of acetic acid (white vinegar) and even compare this to other acids.

The students will be working and pretending that they work for an engineering company that is designing a bridge. The Department of Transportation wants to see a model of the bridge, so they will be

Students are put into groups of 3 or 4. As a group they create an animal cell model and then create a slide show naming and describing the organelles of an animal cell.

This lesson takes place in a classroom over two weeks. Students may work in small groups of 2-3. Prior to the robotics challenge, teachers should facilitate student discussion through guided lessons

Students use a constant velocity, battery powered vehicle to determine the relationship between position and time. They use their results to determine the formula for speed (change in position/time).

In this lesson, students will create their own golden record that may travel throughout our solar system and beyond. The Golden Record acts as a time capsule and students collaborate which popular

Notes Prerequisites: This lesson requires prior experience with Edison Robots. Context: This lesson can be taught to a single class or used in an after-school coding/robotics club. Students should be

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

Students will observe caterpillars and make a model of what a caterpillar looks like. Materials needed: Live caterpillars, pictures of caterpillars, marshmallows, toothpicks, pipe cleaners, rubber

Students create a video-tutorial that talks about Direct and Inverse Variation in this creative lesson. This material will showcase their full understanding about the type of variation they have

Students will learn and explain about pollination and how it helps plants to grow and reproduce. After reading about pollinators, students will collaborate and communicate effectively with their peers
