Students are left stranded on an alien planet and must wait for rescue. In the meantime they have found some valuable resources from a previous space craft crash. Students encounter the aliens and are

Go through different STEM, reading, and writing activities with Roz and her friends in The Wild Robot. Students will problem solve, participate in discussions, and learn about artificial intelligence

This lesson plan will allow students to explore the use of a PhET simulation in creating a series and parallel circuit, then apply this knowledge in creating a real circuit. Students will also learn

With the cereal box the students created in lesson 1, they will design and create a new cereal. They can create a logo and an advertising plan.

Students will create a geometric net to estimate how many cheerios will fit in the cube. They will use volume to create a real sized cereal box that they can fit 100 cheerios into without having lots

Students program and present Lego Robot to be able to effectively use different data types such as time (seconds), speed, and degrees of rotation. Program and synchronize motor movements of a

In this lesson plan students will use fractions to design a space for a flock of chickens. Using only 2 Items they will have everything they need for this lesson.

This lesson looks at the Fibonacci sequence and the story of Fibonacci. It looks at the numbers, the rectangles and places in nature and art where they can be found.

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 simulate the Oregon Trail journey using STEM to make decisions and analyze outcomes.

The purpose of this lesson is to introduce and apply the concept of frequency. Students will be begin by a motivating “click the mouse” challenge. This will help them to develop the concept of

The goal of these lessons is to introduce work and power and then apply it by having students find the power produced by a future NFL player. The students will then be challenged to see what type of

This lesson includes literacy, math, and art about snowflakes. Within math, students will dive into an analysis of angles within a common snowflake. Students will listen to an informational text about

This first grade lesson includes the life cycle and survival of a seed. Students will participate in observing the life cycle of a seed, asking questions, writing about the life cycle, and listening

This lesson walks students through reimagining a schoolyard space by calculating scale model and creating scale objects.

Students who have been studying logarithms can apply them using a chemistry lab to discover the pH of acetic acid (white vinegar) and even compare this to other acids.

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

In this lesson, students will identify the significance of the numbers found in and around their home. Making these connections will help strengthen number sense and provide a real-world framework to

Classes will prepare several garden bins for planting, by using a tape measure students take into consideration the recommended distances of seed planting described on the seed packet and the

In this unit, students will study the effects of air pollution and engineer an environmentally friendly air filter to reduce pollutants in the air using common household items and recycled materials

In this lesson, students will be measuring the dimensions of the classroom, then calculating its perimeter, area, volume and (optional) surface area. Then they will participate in a design challenge

The students can able to build a solar power car and test it if it works outside when there is a sun at the of this activity. They can able to discuss what solar energy can give to human through

This lesson takes place in as classroom for one or more 60 minute class periods. The data collection portion may continue for 2+ weeks (or whatever time frame you decide). An emphasis is placed on the

In this lesson, students will create and test multiple helicopters to create a helicopter that lands the slowest in a given target. Students will take their best design and share with the class.
