Engineering

A lower elementary (Kindergarten through 4th grade) lesson plan to explore what the robot can and can not do, to program the robot to complete a task, and to collaboratively work as a team to complete

Students use their knowledge about cells and their organelles to create a dichotomous key to help guide others' thinking to decide if a cell is a plant cell or animal cell. Students need access to

In this interactive lesson, students take three days to create a maze using Gravitrax kits and pieces. Students then use their maze to create a model and explain where they see Newton's Laws of Motion

In this creative lesson, students explore states of matter as they fuse glass. During this process, students are actively engaged as they design an art piece, work on measurements, and collaborate

In this lesson, students will show how heat transfers into an egg during the hard-boiling process, and additionally, different methods of how heat can transfer out of an egg during the cooling process

In this hands-on lesson, students use the engineering design process to create a balloon powered car that travels at least 5 feet. This is a fun and engaging way for students to experience science in

Within this hands-on lesson, students use the engineering design process to create a device that will protect an egg from a two-story drop. They work within small groups and test their creation and

In this food-related lesson, students use the engineering design process to create solar ovens and cook s'mores. They engage in critical thinking as they construct their design and test out the oven

This lesson is to introduce students to coding using EdScratch and Edison Robots. Students use LEGOs to build a house for grandma and figure out a way to keep her safe.
