Engineering Design Process

Lesson Summary: 2nd Grade students listen to the story; Sadie Sprocket Builds a Rocket and reflect how they would create and design a space lander/rover. We watch the video; Curiosity; Mars Rover and

Students are challenged to complete a Ziggurat temple with a working marble run attached. It is a challenge for students to construct the longest working marble run.

Students will plan and design a maze using the supplies provided to move one marble from the start line to the finish line. They will learn about potential and kinetic energy properties. We will use

This lesson plan will focus on different fun and engaging activities pertaining to one of the most complicated standards in physics, which is projectile motion. At the end of this lesson students are

In this lesson, students will learn the differences between kinetic and potential energy, and the meaning of conservation of energy. Students will also, compare and contrast balanced and unbalanced

Students will better understand gas, liquid, and solid states of matter through hands-on learning stations and a create-a-toy design challenge.

This lesson will explore aerodynamics, rocketry, and principles of space flights. Students will act as engineers. Their job is to research, plan, design, and build a water bottle rocket that will

This lesson provides an engaging STEM project by making a catapult. The goal is to shoot a pingpong ball in a basket. Student's knowledge on forces and engineering design processes are essential to

This STEM activity is designed to be used with an animal habitat lesson. Students will create a UV animal using color changing UV beads and design a shelter to protect the animal from harmful UV light
