This lesson is part of a 4-Day mini-unit developed for 7th and 8th grade about Ethics and Artificial Intelligence. This introductory lesson can be used as a stand-alone lesson analyzing the meaning of

Using prior knowledge of vertices, angles and sides, students will explore the traits of six shapes, polygons and non-polygons, and correctly categorize shapes with corresponding traits.

In this lesson, students will apply the knowledge of calculating volume to determine the amount of soil they need to fill their planters. They will also use their skills to multiply and divide the

This is a series of lessons that discusses the process and factors that may affect and may not affect seed germination. This also builds the background of the students about the needs of the plants

In 5th grade Social Studies we learn about the American Revolution and study evidence of Espionage used by the Patriots to win the Revolution. Prior to the activity students will read a variety of

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

Students use color theory, write recipes, and use an iterative design process to create a natural dye.

This is part 2 of 2 where students will be conducting a life science experiment with their Worm Worlds created from part 1 and finding out what a red wiggler's favorite food is.

In this lesson, students conduct an experiment that answers the following driving question: Which type of bedding do red wigglers like better- coconut husk or shredded cardboard? This lesson allows

Students use the engineering design process to create paper rocket protoypes and complete a cost-benefit analysis to help choose the best one.

Context: This lesson takes place in a classroom for two or more class periods Students may work in small groups of 2-4. An emphasis on the experiment of making an indestructible Edison robot Creative

Students will create an inclined plane using Pythagorean Theorem and will experiment with rolling objects and try to find a solution to reduce the speed through friction, or air resistance or weight.

This lesson plan provides material for two 90-minute periods. Day one provides guided opportunities to explore chemical equations and day two consists of 10 hands-on stations practicing and applying

Students will be reading an article and answering questions on Solar Panels to help them complete their model of how the solar panel converts the sun's energy into electricity,.

It is a lesson that is based on Mathematical computation and Project based learning. Students have to find the proportional relationship between the surface area of the house and the paint to be used

By exploring seeds and the effects of different planting patterns/depths on seed germination, students will conduct exploration of varying seed depths in soil and keep track of growth and traits over

This lesson helps kids have an understanding of how our eyes capture light. A camera captures pictures of objects using a similar way so in this experiment, kids will be making a camera using simple

In this lesson, students begin to develop questions about what is being wasted in our school. It could be waste during lunch or waste as an overall school. Students will conduct an investigation

In this lesson, students will build on what they understand about heat/energy transfer to research, design, and construct solar cookers.

Students will investigate how a simple circuit works through the use of Squishy Circuits. This is part 2 of a 3 part unit but can also be done as a stand alone activity. Students will draw and label

In this lesson students will be able to make their own slime using chemistry and chemical reactions then use their slime as a model for fractions while reading a short story called, "Slimey is Half."

This is the planning and set-up stage for an experiment to see which type of gardening is the most sustainable and produces the best results. You will need to either choose or have students help
