You've crash-landed on an alien planet and must find a way to survive with the help of native flora and fauna. Students will document alien life-forms in a field journal and use that information to
Design a helicopter out of paper only. Students will explore design and paper types.
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
In this activity, students will use a table to organize information, create a graph to display data and use the correct labels. Students will also recognize the relationship among the table, the graph
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
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
In this lesson, students will explore how sound moves through physical matter by building a cup and string "telephone." Following testing their design, students will create a video or podcast to
In this model-based inquiry lesson, students will explore how sound travels through an in-person phenomenon. Following this experience students will then explain this phenomenon by creating a model.
Students will focus is on the historical time period of 1763- 1900 CE. The objective is to select a historically accurate person and research the person's story. Then students will plan, create
Students will use known geographical features to identify landforms on images from the Mars Orbital Reconnaissance Satellite.
The lesson introduces how the earth layers and the fossil record shows a relative time scale. The math concept of a function will be explored. Students will use cause and effect changes of Earth
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
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
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
Students will be creating two different gardens. A hydroponics garden indoors and a raised bed garden outside. Students will be gathering data to help define the question: What is the biggest issue
For this lesson, students will build a Ferris Wheel using both technic pieces and bricks from the LEGO Spike Prime kit. They will work through the engineering design process, collect data and
Students will experiment with electromagnets and building them using a 3D model. They will collect data and analyze the data. Students will experiment with 4 different types of batteries and create
This lesson will provide students with the opportunity to research and design their own roller coaster. This will give them the experience to understand how gravity works on Earth and why people are
After learning about solar, students will create a solar-powered device that can be used by the community. Students work in groups to engineer a device and present the final product to the class.
This lesson has students build a half adder, a fundamental building block for digital computers. This is a hands-on lesson that includes resources.
Students will discuss current baseball teams names and mascots. Then students are tasked to design a new team name/logo/mascot for a city/state that does not currently have a major league team
In this engaging and hands-on lesson, students will examine the Gold King Mine spill on the Animas River in Colorado before creating a model watershed in order to develop an explanation of human
