Students will use Tinkercad's 3D Modeling tool to plan and design the layout for a school garden.
In this lab, we will be completing a set of tasks that will help us develop a better understanding of the formation and parts of both transverse and longitudinal waves.
Engineers create and use new materials, as well as new combinations of existing materials to design innovative new products and technologies—all based upon the chemical and physical properties of
Students will investigate how solar energy changes the temperature of a substance.
This lesson, is one to make your students taste buds jump for joy as they get to create their very own edible eyeball cookie. This is a great STEM lesson to use when learning about the parts and
In this engaging and interactive lesson, students explore adaptation and creative problem-solving. Inspired by "The Great Turkey Race," students will engage in a hands-on engineering lesson to design
Students will go through the process of counting pumpkin seeds and analyzing data through mean, median and mode as well as creating correlating graphs. Students will learn what causes fruit
This lesson plan focuses on force and how it can be applied through the paper ball launcher. Students will build a launcher using the engineering design process and use the model to hit a target at
Students will explore the drought in Arizona and design a solution for it. They will create their design in a 3D design program, write an informational paper, and present the design and information to
This lesson is to be used as a follow up activity when learning about the water cycle. Students are able to play a game either digitally or physically to demonstrate their own journey through the
This is lesson 4 in a 4 part roller coaster project for 6th grade. In this lesson, students will create a news report on Canva to demonstrate the kinetic and potential energy in their roller coaster
This is the 3rd lesson in a 4 part roller coaster project for 6th grade. In this lesson, students will design and build a roller coaster that fits the criteria and follows a budget. Students will
Students will use the projects from lessons 2 and 3 to analyze the data of the electric cars they made. They will identify the variables in their cars and plan improvements to their designs.
This is the second lesson in a four part roller coaster project for 6th grade. In this lesson, students will learn about friction and gravity. Students will test different materials to determine which
This lesson uses the knowledge of circuits (lessons 1 and 2) to make a battery-powered car. We used a tutorial from Tinkercad and designed our own body of a car. Then, I printed their cars. They
This is the first lesson of a 4 part roller coaster project for 6th graders. In this lesson, students will learn about potential, kinetic and mechanical energy, as well as the law of conservation of
This lesson shows how to make an electric car using a small motor and battery. Students created a car, attached a battery and on/off switch, and collected data. The data collection sheet is included
This lesson is an introduction to circuits. It teaches about what is a circuit and then applies what they learned in a variety of ways through centers. Then, they will apply what they learned about
This is a smaller part of a larger Digital Citizenship Unit. Students will spend time understanding the concept of a Digital Footprint and the long term consequences of a negative Digital Footprint
In this lesson, students will extract chlorophyll from spinach leaves and make different concentrations following the dilution method. Students will learn to compare the absorbance values obtained at
In this lesson, students will explore the different pigments in green plants using spinach leaves. Students will identify the pigments by doing a lab using paper chromatography. They will observe the
Students will create a Google slideshow presentation to document their progress through the engineering design process, which includes: researching the science of sound, then creating an instrument
Students will have fun building and testing with KidSpark observing and calculating forces such as load and effort.
