In this lesson, students conduct an experiment that answers the following driving question: Which type of bedding do red wigglers like better- coconut husk or shredded cardboard? This lesson allows
Students use the engineering design process to create paper rocket protoypes and complete a cost-benefit analysis to help choose the best one.
Students will create an inclined plane using Pythagorean Theorem and will experiment with rolling objects and try to find a solution to reduce the speed through friction, or air resistance or weight.
It is a lesson that is based on Mathematical computation and Project based learning. Students have to find the proportional relationship between the surface area of the house and the paint to be used
In this lesson, students begin to develop questions about what is being wasted in our school. It could be waste during lunch or waste as an overall school. Students will conduct an investigation
Students will investigate how a simple circuit works through the use of Squishy Circuits. This is part 2 of a 3 part unit but can also be done as a stand alone activity. Students will draw and label
In this lesson students will be able to make their own slime using chemistry and chemical reactions then use their slime as a model for fractions while reading a short story called, "Slimey is Half."
Students will begin the year working with a hydroponics system to observe plant growth. To start the students will be given a seedling and determine what the plant is as it goes through the life cycle
After exploring recycling by reading "What a Waste" by Jess French and watching a video of Kenyan flip flop recycling project, students will gather recyclable materials from home and school to design
