STEM Lesson Plans

Introducing how EdScratch programming works with the Edison Robots. Activities and ideas linked in the lesson.

Lesson Two of Four: This lesson will help to show students there are lots of possibilities when building robots and students will be able to create their own prototype.

First of Four. Introduction to how Edison Robots work. Students will self discover some of the possibilities of what the robots can do.

Electricity and magnetism are fundamental to the workings of nearly every gadget, appliance, vehicle, and machine we use. This great 6th Grade lesson covers magnetic fields where students will be able

Design a helicopter out of paper only. Students will explore design and paper types.

As part of a unit on renewable energy, students build and collect data on a solar powered fan. They learn about agrivoltaics and build a model of a racking system. They explore angles and energy use.

For this lesson, students will use the engineering design process for the tiny house design challenge, which will include a design board, floor plan, scale conversion sheet and a tiny house prototype

Students will apply their knowledge of food chains within ecosystems to the design of a mandala. This lesson will combine science, visual art and geometry. First, students will get a review of food

Student Objectives: Your challenge is to thoroughly research real-world oil spills and what has worked to help clean them up in the past, then engineer your own prototype boom to clean up a simulated

Your job is to build an aqueduct that will supply the Roman cities with clean water to private homes, public baths and glorious fountains. With this success, the citizens will drink clean water

Students program and present Lego Robot to be able to effectively use different data types such as time (seconds), speed, and degrees of rotation. Program and synchronize motor movements of a

Students explore the solar system by conducting research and display their knowledge through creative writing and poetry.

How is Res going to collect samples from Mars? Can you use Edison to design a collector that can help Res collect Mars samples? In this lesson students will use Edison to design a sample collector

Phenomenal Forces and Motion is an amazing lesson which introduces students to the world of physics and Newton’s three laws of motion. Students will find out how some of the basic principles of

Students will use known geographical features to identify landforms on images from the Mars Orbital Reconnaissance Satellite.

Students explore the solar system and space concepts (including microgravity, eclipses, etc.) using technology. Student choice is given with a choice board.

The "Virtual Reality (VR) Exploration: Building a 3D Solar System" lesson is an exciting and immersive STEM experience designed for 8th-grade students. In this lesson, students delve into the world of

Explore temperature and weather with students. Teachers will guide students through this graphing and research activity. The unit opens with a literacy component, Global Warming with Seymour Simon

Students build a wind turbine and test how much work it can do. Students also use data about wind energy production to complete a Claim-Evidence-Reasoning assignment.

NASA needs Resilience to take pictures to send back to Earth for observation. Resilience needs a cell phone holder that can take pictures or videos from multiple views. Can you use Edison to design a

This lesson plan will give you an idea on how to deliver the Area of Rectangles topic to your classes which will make your students enjoy and interact during the discussion. This will require some

In this lesson SW illustrate food systems, food miles, and plant use in everyday items. SW transplant plants from mini garden to raised garden bed. SW perform plant measurements and make observations

This lesson give emphasis on the systems A and B of the chemical reaction that represent the reactants and products. This also focuses on investigating not just the system involved in the chemical

When Res lands on Mars she will encounter various terrain that she must navigate successfully. Can you create wheels that will help navigate her through the terrain? This is part one of a four part
