STEM Lesson Plans

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

This unit has lessons which will introduce students to phenomena we encounter in the real world. Students will learn about high interest phenomenon through hands-on investigations. Students will

In this 2nd grade STEM lesson, students will learn how symbols (directional arrows) can be used to program an object's movements. They will develop an algorithm using a sequential graphic organizer to

MS MakeCode is the perfect stepping stone into the world of Scratch. Students will be able to create a working video game in one class period. As we all know classic video games were not built over

In this lesson, students will explore the concepts of gear ratios and proportions. They will construct a working gear system and observe how the ratio between gears affects their motion. They will use

Students measure the temperature of water as it cools to learn about heat transfer and thermal properties while using line of best fit, linear regressions and/or quadratic regressions.

Students will be able to collaboratively build, and program a simple robot using Lego Spike Prime kits. Students will demonstrate basic skills in robotics and coding by successfully constructing their

This lesson plan has three main objectives. The first is that students will be able to recreate a map of the canal with 3D structures along the way. The largest structure being Casa Grande, or the

This lesson combines ELA (reading and discussing the story), engineering (design a balloon with materials given and attach the balloon to an EdBot), and technology (code an EdBot to run the parade

This outstanding lesson guides students through an introduction to Edison Robots. Students will learn the basic features and sensors while exploring barcode programs. The slideshow and a custom

In this outstanding lesson, students will explore circuitry through working collaboratively to build a working floor piano out of simple materials. Students explore the engineering design process by

In this outstanding lesson, students will apply their knowledge of how natural and human-caused changes to habitats or climate can impact our world in a stop motion film. The lesson covers a Science

This is the final lesson for the How do sunflowers grow? unit. In this lesson, students will plant their sunflowers outside. They will continue to monitor the growth of their sunflowers. They will

Stop motion is a great way for students to slow down working through the steps in math to demonstrate their understanding of math concepts. Students can film a short story or step-by-step instructions

This engaging lesson is the 2nd lesson in a series of 2 focused on data science inquiry. Students use their My Data Portraits from Lesson 1 for data collection, analysis, presentation, reflection and

Students will learn about the three pillars of sustainability through their quail farm. They will incubate, raise and restock their quails in order for them to be sustainable regardless of what

In this lesson, students will combine the fields of coding and robotics with music to program an Ozobot to "sing" a familiar song. Students will learn about music concepts such as notes and octaves
