Calculating Moles to gram of multiple different compounds to make playdough. Includes easy and advanced practice problems (with answers) and teacher background knowledge. Basic easy ingredients are
This lesson walks students through the movement of air in the atmosphere and the energy that drives it. It contains a PowerPoint, activity, worksheet and assessment.
Lesson explores compounds, mixtures and solutions, defining each and what distinguishes them from each other. Students complete a lab as an introduction, use a PowerPoint to refine their knowledge and

Students measure the temperature of water as it cools to learn about heat transfer and thermal properties while using line of best fit, linear regressions and/or quadratic regressions.
A lesson to teach students how to collect, organize, interpret data, make inferences, raise awareness, and suggest possible solutions on the water quality of the waterbodies in the state of Arizona.
Students will solve mysteries using a digital scale, systems of equations, and their ingenuity! It enhances problem-solving skills and understanding of mathematical concepts.
Water Troughs on the Rez is a lesson plan to help students understand the mathematical perspective of everyday items around our homes on the reservation. Students are to share different types of water
This is part 2 of a two-part series focused on the effects of grafting tomato plants to potato root stock in order to create "pomato" plants. This lesson is written for junior high students but can be
With this lesson, students learn how to do simple macroinvertebrates sampling and identification using common resources to determine the environmental health status of perennial streams in Arizona
In this lesson, students use the Kepler’s Laws PhET Simulation to collect data on the period and average radius of the planetary orbits. They graph and analyze that data to derive Kepler’s 3rd Law.
This lesson uses a PhET Simulation to allow students to collect data on the orbits of planets around our Sun, then summarize and share their results. It is designed for students in Grades 9-12.
Students will be using simple equipment to demonstrate the 3 laws of motion. They will be incorporating technology, math, and the scientific method to demonstrate what they know.
This is a high-school level hands-on project that allows students to build their own working sundial, make predictions and assess their accuracy. This lesson ties in with the study of Kepler's Laws.
This is a hands-on activity where students can visualize, using Skittles as atoms, the concept of balancing chemical reactions. Many students get thrown off by the fact that products often look, smell
In this final lesson, students will use a life expectancy model to figure their likelihood of dying at a certain age They will use this answer to calculate their best life insurance policy, and
Students will orient to the varied rates of death that depend on age. They will learn how to check for conditions of valid sampling designs that let them use the Normal curve for modeling their sample
In this lesson two of four, students have to estimate and guess how much weight each of four factors has on a person's life expectancy, which often causes discomfort. They will ask you for direction
In this first of a four-part unit, students are introduced to the question under investigation: How much life insurance should I buy to cover myself when I am 45 years old? To answer this
Students in 4th grade learned about natural disasters through this interactive STEM lesson focused on the creation on a 'tsunami-proof' home. Students used the Engineering Design Process to create a
Students learn about the Colorado River watershed and the impact of water rights and usage. They will read about the past and present water flow data, build a model of the watershed, calculate data
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 an activity to see what an angle is and how is can be used to approximate the time of day or even navigating vessels by measuring other celestial bodies. Students will use sextants to
This lesson is an activity to show how projectile motion and many other motions in nature fallow a parabolic curve. Students will manipulate that knowledge and analyze data using small play tanks to
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
