STEM Lesson Plans

Students will listen to a story then participate in a Round Robin discussion. After the Round Robin activity, students will make a reindeer and race it against another student's reindeer.

Students will use geometric reasoning and the engineering design process to construct solar ovens while learning about renewable energy.

This is the fourth and fifth lessons of 7 in the Take-Off & Landing unit. This unit is the first for the Aeronautics 2 students. Students must have completed the 8 Basic Handling Unit lessons from

This is the first of 7 Take-Off & Landing Lessons. This unit is the start the Aeronautics 2 lessons. Students must have completed the 8 Basic Handling Unit lessons from Aeronautics 1 course. (See

Students are expected to design the interior of a tiny house for a client who wants to maximize their small space but not skimp on style and functionality.

Students will listen to Iggy Peck Architect by Andrea Beaty and describe what an architect does, engineering and the design process. Students will be able to design and engineer a strong bridge. They

This lesson is an activity to see what an angle is and how is can be used to approximate the time of day or even navigating vessels by measuring other celestial bodies. Students will use sextants to

Students will create a STEM Cardboard challenge after listening to the story Not a Box by Antoinette Portis.

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

Just like many things we do in our lives, pumpkin growth and coding follow a pattern. Students will learn the life cycle of a pumpkin and fill in a practice page that talks about the pumpkin's life

In this lesson students work together to create a model to show the relationship between plants and animals and where they live using play doh or clay. Students will explore things around them and

In this STEM Challenge, students add materials to help their rock roll better. Then, they examine how to push and pull their rock.

Students will use engineering, art, technology, and 21st century skills to create Halloween costumes for their Sphero robots. Costumes will be showcased in a Halloween parade where students will code

Students are tasked with using the Engineering Design Process to create a system of harvesting rainwater to meet the needs of residents in communities that have a scarce water supply (shortage of

With this lesson, students work in teams and are tasked with creating and designing a greener/cleaner city that has a minimum of 20 green/clean sustainable features. In order to engineer this, the

Students will compare and contrast homes and technology from 50 years ago to the present day. Students will design a SMART home gadget that can be implemented into SMART homes of the future.

Engage students with competitive activities. Students will be predicting measurements, collecting data, and determining the difference between the estimation and the actual. Students will create la

Students observe particle movement for solids, liquids, and gases. They then write Pseudocode for coding particle behavior and then they code particle movement on Scratch for the three states/phases

This lesson could be a Part II for the 3D modeling atomic theory lesson using Tinkercad, or this lesson can be delivered independently. In this lesson students fill out an atomic theory timeline and

Students learn about atomic theory and the scientists that theorized new atomic models from experiments they conducted. Students then create a 3D model for each advancement in the theory timeline

This lesson teaches graphing in a variety of ways and looks at how data can be made misleading. Students will begin with a story and creating a behavior over time graph. Then they will engage with the

Students will focus sunlight through a pinhole onto a sheet of paper. Knowing the distance between the projection and the pinhole allows students to calculate the diameter of the Sun using ratios.
