Students will use Lakeshore Learning's Design & Play STEM Kit - Planes to explore aerodynamics and investigate how to modify plane design to go further distances.
This lesson is an integration of ELA and STEM. The students will be introduced first to the reading of a short story as a springboard for the STEM lesson. Designing and assembling planes helps
After learning about Ancient Egypt, students will be able to put their knowledge and skills to use with the Egyptian Pyramid Prototype. Each group will be challenged to build a 4 sided pyramid that
Students will listen to the story Iggy Peck Architect and create a bridge using available materials to see if it can carry weight.
This lesson will provide students with the opportunity to research and design their own roller coaster. This will give them the experience to understand how gravity works on Earth and why people are
I can use the engineering process to create a shock absorbing system that will protect two “astronauts” in a lander as it is dropped from various heights on the moon.
Students learn the history of rocketry, and the science behind rockets, and then design, build, and launch bottle rockets with compressed air and water.
This lesson is designed to have students investigate how objects, of different masses, will be affected when dropped to Earth. The lesson begins with a phenomena video - this video connects the idea
In this 2-part lesson students research the ways bats use their wings to defy gravity. They will interact with media to answer: How do bats use their wings to defy gravity? How are bat wings adapted
