This outstanding multi-day lesson covers the anatomical design of the respiratory system. Students will work on a basic model project to simulate breathing action and the diaphragm. They will also

Teachers will be introduced to the VEX V5 Robotic Platform. We will start with an Introduction to robotics and how robotics is used in industry. Students will understand the key resources they will be

Students will use their knowledge of Newton's Laws of Motion to design and build a "ski jump" for a Sphero Bolt. This activity can be used for Science, Social Studies, Engineering, and (possibly)

This lesson was designed because students love to compete, and it primes them to use the Engineering Design process to build a boat and revise their design as needed. Students must use at least one

In this hands-on engineering and science project, students will become earthquake engineers tasked with designing and constructing earthquake-proof structures using toothpicks and mini marshmallows

In this project, 8th-grade students will engage in hands-on exploration of elastic potential energy and its conversion to kinetic energy using small catapults. Through experimentation and data

This lesson is part 2 of 2, Days 3 and 4. This lesson is set up to have students explore the friction bridge designed by Leonardo Da Vinci. Students have discovered the inventor and become familiar

This lesson is part 1 of 2. This lesson is set up to have students explore the friction bridge designed by Leonardo Da Vinci. Students first discover the inventor and become familiar with his life

In this lesson students will learn how to maintain their drones: replace batteries and propellers. The students will conduct a propeller altering experiment to determine the effects of changing the

Students are constructing a cardboard control vehicle. Throughout this process, they will practice working with circuits and motors. In this lesson, students will begin working on the electrical

Students are constructing a cardboard remote control vehicle. Throughout this process, they will practice working with circuits and motors.

This project sets students up to explore animal anatomy and physiology with the idea of replacing a lost appendage (beak, leg, tail, fin, etc.) This is used in small groups of 2 or 3 over the course

Saguaro cacti are collapsing in the Phoenix due to extreme heat and the urban island effect. Is there anyway to save them? This lesson allows students to investigate the factors contributing to the
