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

Students will learn about hibernation and adapting to the winter cold. They will build shelters with different insulating materials so that their animals do not get cold. They will then do a gallery

In this lesson, students will learn about and discuss the life cycle of a butterfly. They will then get 10 shapes total from the teacher (circles and squares). They will use their math skills to make

Coding a robot to solve a math problem has made math even more fun! In this lesson, students will work with a partner to write a code that will enable the robot of their choice to successfully solve

Students will explore beginning coding thru binary coding and creating a name bracelet.

Launch into a fun activity! Students will be building a rocket, then blow into the straw inserted and watch how high their rocket flies. This fun activity can be done indoor or outdoor. Students can

In this lesson, students will learn about Indi the robot and collaboratively solve addition problems using critical thinking and problem-solving skills. They will then become detectives to solve the

In this hands-on lesson, students will demonstrate their understanding of robotics and coding by creating a course for their robot to move on. The course will include turns, circles and straight ways.

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

This is lesson 6 of the Life Science Unit. Students engage in various learning opportunities. #1 Objective: I can count and graph camouflage animals. #2 Objective: I can camouflage a butterfly. #3

This is lesson 2 of the Life Science Unit. Students learn about animal classifications. Links to all lessons and optional fiction read-alouds, picture sorts, STEM hands-on activities, journal prompts

A 1st grade lesson plan asking students to create a model to classify dinosaurs into different groups according to similarities. Following the classification, a classroom discussion about the ways

Students will learn how robots help complete repetitive tasks for humans. Robots use a series of steps that are programed into their circuits. It must be done systematically and include each step, in

Students will explore the different types of mouth parts and how their feeding needs are met. Students will 'pretend' to be insects with different mouth types and collect data on their success on

Have you ever wondered how ducks stay warm and dry while swimming in cold water? Students will create a duck and then be able to test their theory!
