STEM Lesson Plans

Students will go through the process of counting pumpkin seeds and analyzing data through mean, median and mode as well as creating correlating graphs. Students will learn what causes fruit

This lesson is to be used as a follow up activity when learning about the water cycle. Students are able to play a game either digitally or physically to demonstrate their own journey through the

Students will use a Sphero bot to collect data on the actual speed of the Sphero bot and use the data to make predictions as to how far the bot will travel in a given time frame.

In this high school science/engineering lesson on exploring cracked steel, students will delve into the concept of cracked steel and its impact on structural integrity. They will define composites and

This lesson includes fourth grade reading, writing, math, science, and engineering standards. The potential is endless with additional enrichment activities. Students participate in the nurturing and

A look at 3 different injuries and the different systems that are affected and the math behind the functions of the body and medical interventions.

Students will be paired up, or a group of three if one odd number, and create a Mom and Dad creature with Dominant and Recessive Traits that get passed on to two offspring through the flipping of a

This lesson provides a quick and easy to understand introduction to Binary code. In this lesson, we focus on binary numbers whereas, subsequent lessons can focus on the binary alphabet.

Engage students with competitive activities. Students will be predicting measurements, collecting data, and determining the difference between the estimation and the actual. Students will create la

Students will be divided into 6 groups, one for each of the major systems in the human body, and create a presentation to share with the rest of the class.

Students will learn how fingerprints are used to solve crimes. Students will then take their own prints, examine patterns within their prints, and compare/contrast the percentages for each type of

Students are learn to collect data from their robot. Students will also learn how to use that data to determine the mean absolute deviation of the robots movements.

Students will build an ice snowman and a house for him to live in. They will collaborate to design a structure to keep him from melting. This project uses basic materials to study insulation and

In this five days lesson plan or a class project, I used a picture book, "Seeds of Change: Exploring Wangari Maathai's Tree-Planting Efforts". This lesson plan is great for 6th -8th-grade students. In

As an intro to Thermal Energy, students are challenged to create a warmer that will keep my coffee warm. Students project will be tested in class, data will be collected, compared, and graphed.

This is a series of lessons where students will observe natural activities in the garden for five days. From the observation, they will identify the factors that have high probability of causing

In this lesson, students will apply the knowledge of calculating volume to determine the amount of soil they need to fill their planters. They will also use their skills to multiply and divide the

This is a series of lessons that discusses the process and factors that may affect and may not affect seed germination. This also builds the background of the students about the needs of the plants

Students use color theory, write recipes, and use an iterative design process to create a natural dye.

Students will first build and collect data on how fast their solar car is. Then students can change items to increase the efficiency of the solar panel to increase the overall speed of the solar car.

Students will increase efficiency of the solar panels by using angles. Students are given a solar panel, protractor, and a multimeter. They need to complete a pre- investigation plane before they
