Design and create a space rover using recycled materials.
This lesson takes a student's understanding of both light and sound to the next level. In this lesson students will use their understanding of both art, science and technology to create a visual and
In this project, students will create a professional blueprint of their real-life home. Students will then do research to find at least ten places in the home that impact the environment (positive or
In this project, students will choose an environmental problem to research. They will look up why this problem is occurring and how it is harming the environment. Students will then come up with two
This lesson provides the students an opportunity to learn hands-on. They work as a worm biologist or Annelidologist, observing how the external features of the worm, such as its segmented body and
I use this egg drop/crash lesson as an introduction to Energy and Energy Transfer in physics. Students understand basic kinematics, but I generally conduct this lesson before projectile motion, but it
Students will be able to look at proportion and percentages of the Earth's layers. Students will research, get the percentages, and create a model of the layers of the Earth.
In this activity students work together to create a model to show the relationship between plants and animals and where they live using play doh or clay. Students will explore things around them and
I use this lesson as a fun activity to visualize unit conversions and the immense scale of the universe. I love this lesson because I find it challenging to teach unit conversions with hands-on
Students will use engineering, art, technology, and 21st century skills to create Halloween costumes for their Sphero robots. Costumes will be showcased in a Halloween parade where students will code
This lesson is about the rock cycle. Students will start by cutting and folding paper crystals. Then students review what they already know about rocks and the rock cycle. They use their understanding
Students are tasked with using the Engineering Design Process to create a system of harvesting rainwater to meet the needs of residents in communities that have a scarce water supply (shortage of
Students will research what techniques engineers use to help a building withstand an earthquake and implement two researched strategies into a cardboard structure that will survive a medium sized
Students will compare and contrast homes and technology from 50 years ago to the present day. Students will engineer a SMART home gadget that can be implemented in to the SMART homes of the future.
This is a density lab involving hot and cold water layering, salt density layers, and a PHET online lab simulation.
This lesson is part one of two lessons that have students create a step-by-step guide on how to grow a plant from a seed, including the required materials, conditions, and steps involved.
Students will discover the different facets of building a business including product and market research, marketing, cost and profit analysis, product design and more.
Students will discover the many different facets of building a business including product research, marketing, finances, cost and profit analysis, product design and more.
This lesson could be a Part II for the 3D modeling atomic theory lesson using Tinkercad, or this lesson can be delivered independently. In this lesson students fill out an atomic theory timeline and
Students learn about atomic theory and the scientists that theorized new atomic models from experiments they conducted. Students then create a 3D model for each advancement in the theory timeline
Students will use engineering skills, critical thinking, math and balance, and collaboration to build a home for a visiting Hedgehog. The materials are straws, string, wooden blocks, material/fabric
Students will be divided into 6 groups, one for each of the major systems in the human body, and create a presentation to share with the rest of the class.
In Day 1 (of 3) of our exciting journey, students embark on a captivating exploration of the natural world, delving into the mysteries of plant life cycles and the essential role that bees play in
Students will focus sunlight through a pinhole onto a sheet of paper. Knowing the distance between the projection and the pinhole allows students to calculate the diameter of the Sun using ratios.
