STEM Lesson Plans

This investigation provides a fun and engaging way for students to learn about data collection, graphing, and proportional relationships while exploring the power of renewable energy. By applying

This is a lesson about finding the volume of cubes and students will build a final project out of cubes and calculate the total volume.

This STEM lesson is all about foam gliders, aerodynamics, and the engineering design process. Students will explore flight through foam gliders and then use what they learn to plan and construct their

Using the Engineering Design Process, students will design and create a marble maze out of cardboard and cardstock, making sure to include all the required elements. They will then create an air

In this project, students from the 4th and 6th grades will collaborate and explore the science standards of Arizona. The project's main focus is to study the impact of human activities on the

Beautiful Biomes! In this project, students from the 4th and 6th grades will collaborate and explore the science standards of Arizona. The project's main focus is to study the impact of human

Today, we will articulate the concept that a mineral is a naturally occurring solid with a distinctive crystal shape. Today, we will illustrate that rocks are composed of individual mineral pieces

This multi-day activity is designed for an introductory 4th grade STEM after school club. It can be easily modified for whole classes and for lower and upper grade levels. The activity has students

In this lesson students will explore the world of VR and proceed by creating a model of what their VR world would look like if they could make one.

This is the second lesson in a series of four lessons on building a robotic rover with the BBC micro:bit. In this lesson, students will design, model, and 3D print brackets for a TT motor to find the

In this lesson, students will be creating a working model demonstrating Earth’s rotation and revolution. Students will be able to explain the differences between Earth’s rotation and revolution

In this lesson, students will explore how energy works using circuits and stored energy.

In this interdisciplinary project, 4th and 6th-grade students will work together to explore the Arizona state standards for science. The focus will be on the impact of human activities on the

The objective of this lesson is for students to use the design process to design their own solar dehydrator. When students are designing their own solar dehydrator, there are several key aspects they

Students will construct an explanation using evidence to demonstrate that objects can affect other objects even when they are not touching. They will explore electric, magnetic, and gravitational

This is the first of four lessons based on the novel Space Case by Stuart Gibbs. This lesson will help create equitable background knowledge for the literature-infused project-based learning project

This lesson plan will equip the students with the basic understanding of the forms of electromagnetic waves. It also includes a hands-on activity on assessing EMF radiation levels in classrooms that

Inspired by the picture book, "Count on Me," Kindergarten students will demonstrate the Engineering Design Process by collaboratively creating a model of a new toy for their playground, observing the

In this lesson, students explore the foundational concepts of electricity, delving into Ohm's Law and the principles of electric power. Through a series of engaging theoretical and practical exercises

In this activity, students will build a shelter that protects them (cotton balls) from a volcanic eruption of lava and ash.

Students will build landing gear to successfully land a rover on Mars.

On day one, students will learn the history of the boomerang. Then on day two, the students will engineer and design their boomerang. Finally, the students will fly their boomerangs.
