STEM Lesson Plans

This lesson includes 1 or 2- 50 minute period(s) worth of particle pollution exploration. Students are creating an explanation of events for carbon dioxide and particle pollution detection, creating

In this hands-on lesson, students create a trebuchet that launches a projectile to hit targets at specific distances, as well as launching the projectile the farthest distance. A report must be given

This lesson includes 1 or 2- 50 minute period(s) worth of Greenhouse gas exploration. Students are creating and refining a drawn model of greenhouse gasses in our atmosphere, reading and discussing

This lesson is about students understanding the scientific process through a Community Maze game. Students experience the importance of observation, collaboration, discovery, feedback to achieve a

This lesson plan is a continuation of Part 1 (link to Part 1 is included). In this lesson, students will apply what they've learned from deconstructing boxes, and they will design their own unique

In this lesson, students will deconstruct cell phone boxes and other tech-packages to understand how packaging design relates to consumer experience. They will analyze what makes some designs more

Fashion design & apparel engineering is a multidisciplinary field that combines the knowledge of engineering, technology, math, science, and the arts with the creativity of fashion design. In this

This is the final lesson of 4 lessons. In this lesson we are creating our design from lesson 3. This is a project-type lesson, so it is not done in a traditional manner. Students will create either

This is the 3rd lesson of a 4-part series. In this lesson the students will be using their gauge from their swatch to design a garment or accessory for a model. Using proportional relationships

This is the second lesson of a 4-part series that explores STEM in Knitting. This lesson is optional and requires the teacher to be an experienced knitter either by hand or with a knitting machine

This lesson is the first of 4 lessons that helps students on the journey to knitting with Math. The lesson uses proportions and ratios to help students understand the basic swatch and how to calculate

Students will learn the basics of coding concepts such as sequencing, algorithms, and conditional statements, while also reinforcing math skills related to counting and addition. They will be using a

This lesson is about geometric shapes. Student will watch videos about the solar system. They will view the geometric shapes in the solar system and draw pictures of them.

In this hands-on lesson, students will utilize Beebots and the app iClips on the iPad to create a film about bees. Students will create their own storyboards and props and will analyze each other's

Students learn about celestial and transitory objects in the sky while creating a piece of art depicting a constellation. The constellation can be seen during the day by holding it up. It helps

In this lesson, students will apply their knowledge from the prior day's lesson (Magnetic Marble Run Newton's Laws of Motion Day 1), to complete an Advanced Build of a Magnetic Marble Run. This lesson

This lesson can be used to reinforce physical science standards, engineering design concepts, and collaboration. Students will work with a National Geographic Magnetic Marble Run to construct a basic

In this creative lesson, students will digitally create objects on a four-quadrant background and use the unit circle reference angles to demonstrate the angles and radians their object are at.

In this creative math lesson, students will use their knowledge of special right triangles to create a unit circle on a real world 2D or 3D object!

This is the 4th and final part of a 4-part series that allows students to communicate what they've learned through using the engineering design process to develop new vision technology. Links to all

This hands-on lesson allows students to engage in the engineering design process by building a new vision technology with applications of convex and concave lenses. This is the 3rd lesson in a series

This is lesson 7 of the Life Science Unit. Students explore a variety of learning experiences. There are 2 objectives. #1 Objective: I can create a mixed-media art piece with a message for the world
