This lesson is perfect when celebrating Easter. The students will be engaged in creating a trap for the bunny. The story will be read first and then the magic happens after.
How to get the egg to land safely. A fun STEM/engineering egg drop activity for 1st grade. This can also be tied to science standards with older grades (4th +).
This lesson plan focuses on the following standards. Construct an explanation of the origin, expansion, and scale of the universe based on astronomical evidence. ● The study of stars' light spectra
This lesson plan focuses on the use of several materials to create a rocket and a launcher. Remodel the rocket as needed to validate Newton’s third law of motion and projectile motion.
What if we could pass along information that can’t be stolen or intercepted? We can do it with a little coding, and some chemistry! Soon we will be writing in code, passing secret information along
Students will study car barrier engineering in this lesson. They will study how Newton’s Second Law of motion can be applied to determine how to decrease the force of impact during a collision. They
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
Students will read the novel, "The Lion of Mars", design & launch paper rockets, and then design a sustainable Mars Colony inspired by the novel.
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
A good investigation for the fall when seeds are available. Some seeds will need to be collected in the spring.
This investigation focuses on how the speed of an object affects the amount of energy transfer.
The investigation focuses on how a rubber band is used to transfer energy to an object.
This lesson is a final project/assessment for the unit. Students should have a basic understanding of structural and behavioral adaptations. Students will create a poster featuring a model of a new
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 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 will go over the book Balloons Over Broadway. The students will read the book, then do research the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade beginning and how floats are made today. The students will
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
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
