Students will be learning about adaptation. Students will participate in a project where they will see if seeds can grow in a bag without soil and natural sunlight. They will also compare and contrast
Students will investigate the difference between amplitude and frequency to see which one transfers more energy. Students will collect data, graph their data, and complete a written conclusion.
This lesson, adapted from NOAA, focuses on tides. Students pretend to be a ship captain delivering materials to a construction company. However, their ship must go under a bridge. Students must find
Students will discover: What will happen if animals are eliminated in ecosystems and food webs?
Students will participate in a hands-on scientific experiment that addresses the question: "Can you grow plants without seeds?" To further explore this concept, students will actively listen to a read
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 use large building bricks to practice computational thinking, direction giving and being specific in those directions. This lesson can be completed in one 30-45 minute class session. This is
This is part of an introduction to EdScratch using Edison Robots. Students will model the flow of an ecosystem. This is a hands-on experience for students to explore life science concepts using
This lesson is an introduction to Tangible Coding and Sequencing to model the flow of an ecosystem. This is a hands-on way to incorporate coding and robots with life science concepts. This is a 2-part
In this lesson, students will learn about projectile motion and the factors that affect it by designing and building a simple catapult. Through hands-on experimentation, students will investigate how
This lesson plan involves dilation and scale factors and how the human eye perceives 3D when it only uses 2D images. The hand-on activity is a perspective drawing of a city scape and teaches about
In this lesson, students will understand the impact of oil spills in the ocean. They will work cooperatively to come up with solutions and materials to clean up a simulated oil spill. Students will
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
In this inquiry-based lesson, students explore energy with the phenomenal Newton's cradle. They will be able to understand and apply the Law of Conservation of Energy. Students will identify the
The investigation focuses on how a rubber band is used to transfer energy to an object. Students will determine a pattern for how the speed of the rubber band determines the distance a paper cube
In this hands-on lesson, students will explore the water cycle and learn how it works. Students will be able to make their own model and observe the water cycle in class. They create an art piece and
This lesson is part two of evidence of the big bang theory. Students investigate red shift and blue shift and how it supports the expansion of the universe. They will complete an online simulation
In this lesson students will identify the four seasons. They will then explore how trees change with the seasons and how that impacts what humans wear and act. Students will also count to four and
In this lesson kindergarten students will explore their 5 senses and determine how they can be used in the garden. There is a literacy integration and nature walk within the lesson along with
Designed for three hour-long STEAM Club meetings for scholars from kindergarten - fourth grade. This lesson plan can also be used for fifth-seventh grade scholars. Scholars will learn about
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 lesson plan is designed to allow students to express their creativity while applying science, technology and math concepts by designing their own dream house.
