STEM Lesson Plans

What are the parts of a plant? What is pollination? What parts are involved in pollination? What happens when a bee or another pollinator flies from flower to flower? Why is pollination important? How

Students will be creating their own arcade games with recycled materials. One idea can change the world! During this activity students will be going through the engineering design process.

After completing a ratio table and researching the benefits of the ingredients in chicken feed, students will now be able to build a bag of chicken feed for a local farmer!

This lesson plan is designed to teach students about Newton's 3rd Law of Motion through hands-on experimentation. Students will build cars and test the effects of collisions to gain a deeper

This lesson plan walks you through our engineering of a garden box and extended lesson of our plant growth.

Students will create 3D Models of a water form. Learners will record a photo of their model, write and type or record information about their model via iPad or tablet. Students will record a learning

This is session 4 of a 4 session unit on innovative thinking, agricultural engineering, and farm model making. This is the second session of hands-on farm model making. Students will work with a

This is session 3 of a 4 session unit on innovative thinking, agricultural engineering, and farm model making. In this session students begin to work with a partner or small group to construct their

This is session 2 of a 4 session unit on innovative thinking, agricultural engineering, and farm model making. This session introduces students to agricultural engineering. It discusses how due to a

This is session 1 of a 4 session unit on innovative thinking, agricultural engineering, and farm model making. The first session introduces students to Dr. Temple Grandin, a creative thinker who has

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.

The students will be working and pretending that they work for an engineering company that is designing a bridge. The Department of Transportation wants to see a model of the bridge, so they will be

Students are put into groups of 3 or 4. As a group they create an animal cell model and then create a slide show naming and describing the organelles of an animal cell.

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

In this lesson, students will create their own golden record that may travel throughout our solar system and beyond. The Golden Record acts as a time capsule and students collaborate which popular

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

Students will experiment with stirring colors and creating effects, to learn through experimentation while creating a piece of art. The purpose of this lesson is to use visual arts to explore

Students will learn how weather and climate can impact planting in this second lesson out of 4. Agenda What is weather? What is climate? What is the difference between weather and climate? How will

In this lesson, students will develop and use the model of a simple circuit to explain how energy is moved through electric currents. The current and voltage in circuits with 1 dry cell and 2 dry

In this lesson, students will calculate the surface area of rectangular prism, first constructed and then deconstructed and make observations about any potential differences. Making these connections

Model Building For Disaster is a 4-6 week unit in which students research natural disasters around the world and their effect on developing countries. Following their research, student teams design

Summary: Today we will observe and test five known mystery powders, identify examples of physical and chemical reactions to determine who committed the crime. Materials: 6 teaspoons or small spoons

Students will plant and observe plants from seed to full germination while making observations on growth in this engaging lesson. This will be done using a science notebook to record germination

This engaging lesson is all about reverse engineering! Students will read and discuss the hook “A.I. Apocalypse”. They learn all about reverse engineering during this project as they determine a
