STEM Lesson Plans

The purpose of this project is to have students use their knowledge of series and parallel circuits to create an electronic greeting card or an electronic game. This lesson should be given after

The students in this lab activity will play a competitive game with a small bouncy ball. The students will analyze the motion of the ball and apply projectile motion concepts. This activity requires

My lesson plan is entitled: Popsicle Stick Catapult. This lesson focuses on making a catapult out from popsicle sticks. This can be done inside the classroom where the students will be having fun

Students will research and use math calculations to set up a classroom worm compost bin to compare to a classroom non-worm compost bin to be utilized for observation throughout the school year for

5E lesson plan for teaching middle school students (grades 6-8) how to use sensors to control motors and interact with objects on a field using block code with a system like LEGO Mindstorms.

In this lesson students will explore human regenerative medicines through the planarian's ability to regenerate. Planarians have specials cells that allow themselves to modify and regrow into any kind

Students physically manipulate a couple of springs and then collect data from a spring force Phet simulator, graph the data, calculate the area under the curve of their linear line and then, hopefully

Students calculate their own physical power output by walking, and then hustling/running, up a flight of stairs. The change in potential energy (changing height) is the work they do (fighting gravity)

How do light rays reflect and refract? Does light travel at different speeds in different mediums? This lesson reviews how light waves can be reflected and refracted, and how light waves can change

This lesson utilizes a digital level to provide real-world applications of slope and angle measurements. Making connections to careers and practical applications enables students to answer that

In this hands-on lesson, students create solid fuel rockets to explore the idea of parabolic motion and outside factors which can affect the path of a rocket. This lesson has enrichment involving the

In this engaging lesson, students will connect the path of a straw rock to the arc of a parabola. By changing the angle of the launcher, they will discover the relationship between distance and height

Students will explore the concepts of sound and rhythm through a STEM-focused lesson plan that integrates science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) with music. Students will engage in hands-on

Students will investigate the properties of different types of matter and apply the concept of "P1: Matter" to design, model, and 3D print an object using a MakerBot 3D printer. Hands-On STEM Design

In this 2nd grade STEM lesson, students will learn how symbols (directional arrows) can be used to program an object's movements. They will develop an algorithm using a sequential graphic organizer to

This lesson plan helps students understand exponential functions by using an LED circuit. LED luminosity decreases at an exponential rate as more are added in series. As students add more lights to

This lesson explores the concept of density. Students will observe a phenomenon involving floating and sinking. They will design their own investigations and they will learn how to use the density

This is the part one of the composting lesson that is aligned to the ELA standards of narrative reading and writing. In this lesson, students build their experiences by preparing the bucket composters

This lesson was developed to spark student interest with a game component while learning to use the features in productivity applications and Canva. The focus is on learning the applications and

This lesson was developed to spark student interest with a game component while learning to use the features in productivity applications. The focus is on learning the applications and process of game

This is an introduction to the Engineering Design Process described in Engineering Standard 2.0. This lesson guides students on learning rate of change and average rate of change as described in

In this engaging lesson, "Exploring Gravitational and Electromagnetic Forces," students embark on a captivating journey to uncover the unseen yet powerful forces that shape our world. Beginning with

The students will be reading, writing, and representing three digit numbers using base ten numerals and expanded form. The purpose is for the students to write numbers in expanded form and represent

The quintessential chemistry lab, Flame Test Lab! Students will use spectroscopes to identify the component photons of light that are emitted from Spectrum Tubes and Flame Tests. Students will learn
