STEM Lesson Plans

In this primary Kindergarten-1st grade STEM lesson, students will learn to define algorithm, bug, and debug in reference to programming. Through engagement with a virtual simulation, students will

This is the first of two lessons. The focus is to engage students in the hands-on activity of growing corn in water and study the germination process. Students will discuss and learn about the

Over the course of the next 15 days, students will have the opportunity to create a sourdough starter using a one of six different flours provided. This lesson focuses on one of the data collection

Students will go through the engineering design process to come up with a product that will solve a real life problem. By the end of the unit, students will design their product, make their product

Students will research, design and build a treehouse using the engineering design process. They will practice budgeting by pretending to have $100 to spend by using a supply budget sheet. Students

This lesson is an introduction to Micro:bit. Students will learn parts of the device, as well as how to program and download a simple dice randomizer. Once the program is downloaded to the microbit

In this lesson, Kindergarten students create a program that will teach their robot how to solve a simple addition problem. This lesson reviews prior learning students have already received regarding

Students will become a DESIGN TEAM. The team will be using the 4 C’s and the steps of the Design Process to produce an item for a chosen client. Students will focus on empathy to decide on components

This hands-on lesson is designed for kindergarten students. It integrates literature and Math into STEM. The lesson calls for a read out loud where RL and SL standards are aligned. Math standards are
