Intro to Heat transfer and Gathering Data for Greenhouse Placement
This lesson is a continuation of learning where we will be able to place a greenhouse on the school grounds. The students are an active part of this process. This lesson includes discovery of how much sunlight is needed for plants to grow efficiently, in our cooler months, in a greenhouse and also what other items need to be considered in the placement.
We will create a model of how we think heat energy is transferred in a greenhouse.
We will compare the 2 locations chosen to determine the amount of sunlight throughout the day and graph the data.

Students will research, design and build a treehouse using the engineering design process. They will practice budgeting by pretending to have $100 to spend by using a supply budget sheet. Students
Students will learn the history of rainsticks. They will engineer and design their rainstick. Students have to figure out how much rice, beans and corn goes inside to make the sound of rain. Finally
This multi-day activity is designed for an introductory 4th grade STEM after school club. It can be easily modified for whole classes and for lower and upper grade levels. The activity has students
