STEM Lesson Plans

Engage your students in this read-aloud lesson, integrating ELA and Computer Science. Students will be able to identify words and phrases in stories that suggest feelings. Students will also use

During this lesson, the students are going to simulate the flow of electricity using positive and negative charges drawn on pieces of paper that they will pass around in circles. Instead of passing

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

In this lesson, students will get creative with materials to rescue an unfortunate worm. After completing this activity students will have a much better concept of what the 'T" in STEM really means

In this lesson students will be able to program Dash to retell the story they read. Students will be able to run their algorithm and debug as necessary. An added challenge is for students to create a

This is a two part lesson for students to have fun with robots! In this first part, encourage reading in a fun way! Students choose a book they have read and write down the story elements. They will

An engaging read-aloud lesson integrating ELA & Computer Science. Students will listen to Balloons Over Broadway and be able to complete a compare & contrast diagram. Students will also complete a

Students will use live seedlings and available information about seedling and the Sun's energy to determine the best location for the plant to thrive.

The lesson is designed to engage 3rd-grade students in hands-on exploration of scientific and mathematical concepts using the Dash robot. The lesson aligns with the Arizona Science Standards for 3rd

In this hands-on lesson, students match a subitize card to the corresponding number using a Bee-Bot. Students may work in small groups of 2-4 to program an algorithm on the Bee-Bots. They will be able

In this engaging lesson, students will program a Bee-Bot and answer prompts that describe familiar topics, likes, dislikes and family members. This is a beginning of the year activity. Students will

In this hands-on lesson, students program a Bee-Bot and name the student, teacher, principal, or important places at your school. This is a beginning of the year activity. Students will be coding a

Bee-Bot is ready for math! In this engaging lesson, students break apart numbers and make different combinations of numbers to make a whole number. Students will be using a Bee-Bot to code and show

It's 3D printing time! In this lesson, students will design a creation all on their own and input their design into a 3D printing program. They will then print their creations and become a maker!

This lesson will allow students to learn more about 3D printing design and the engineering process. Students will brainstorm different needs in their community and people who could benefit from

Go through different STEM, reading, and writing activities with Roz and her friends in The Wild Robot. Students will problem solve, participate in discussions, and learn about artificial intelligence

Students will use science and engineering practices to design and build a parachute out of everyday items. The parachute must be able to carry a metal washer to a specific target on the ground while

Students after learning how to use EDBlocks and EDScratch programming for Edison Robots will go to a younger class and teach those students how to do it too.

Introducing how EdScratch programming works with the Edison Robots. Activities and ideas linked in the lesson.

Lesson Two of Four: This lesson will help to show students there are lots of possibilities when building robots and students will be able to create their own prototype.

First of Four. Introduction to how Edison Robots work. Students will self discover some of the possibilities of what the robots can do.

Students design a 3D bubble wand in Tinkercad and print on a 3D printer.

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

How is Res going to collect samples from Mars? Can you use Edison to design a collector that can help Res collect Mars samples? In this lesson students will use Edison to design a sample collector
