Students will discover: What will happen if animals are eliminated in ecosystems and food webs?
Students will participate in a hands-on scientific experiment that addresses the question: "Can you grow plants without seeds?" To further explore this concept, students will actively listen to a read
Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions
In this unique and engaging lesson, students will simulate the Oregon Trail journey using STEM to make decisions and analyze outcomes. They will collaborate and communicate effectively with their
In this lesson, students will learn about projectile motion and the factors that affect it by designing and building a simple catapult. Through hands-on experimentation, students will investigate how
In this lesson, students will understand the impact of oil spills in the ocean. They will work cooperatively to come up with solutions and materials to clean up a simulated oil spill. Students will
Students will research and understand bird evolution. They will identify the functions of body parts and ecosystems. They will predict evolutionary changes that a specific bird will go through and the
Designed for three hour-long STEAM Club meetings for scholars from kindergarten - fourth grade. This lesson plan can also be used for fifth-seventh grade scholars. Scholars will learn about
Students will set off and observe Wack-a-Pack. Then students will create their own version using Alka Seltzer tabs, water, balloons, and Ziploc bags. They will explore effects of pressure on
This lesson plan is designed to allow students to express their creativity while applying science, technology and math concepts by designing their own dream house.
SNOW
This lesson includes literacy, math, and art about snowflakes. Within math, students will dive into an analysis of angles within a common snowflake. Students will listen to an informational text about
Students engage in science, math, and technology skills to analyze and interpret data about rain and weather across different regions.
This activity walks students through the basics of using the 3D modeling software TinkerCAD and how to transfer their image to a 3D printer.
This lesson plan is designed to teach students about Newton's 3rd Law of Motion through hands-on experimentation. Students will build cars and test the effects of collisions to gain a deeper
This lesson plan walks you through our engineering of a garden box and extended lesson of our plant growth.
This is session 4 of a 4 session unit on innovative thinking, agricultural engineering, and farm model making. This is the second session of hands-on farm model making. Students will work with a
This is session 3 of a 4 session unit on innovative thinking, agricultural engineering, and farm model making. In this session students begin to work with a partner or small group to construct their
This is session 2 of a 4 session unit on innovative thinking, agricultural engineering, and farm model making. This session introduces students to agricultural engineering. It discusses how due to a
This is session 1 of a 4 session unit on innovative thinking, agricultural engineering, and farm model making. The first session introduces students to Dr. Temple Grandin, a creative thinker who has
Student groups research an energy resource topic and organize content in a slide presentation. Notes from group presentations are used to build a foldable.
This is one lesson in a two part lesson set. In this first lesson, students review balanced and unbalanced forces in preparation for how these forces apply to rockets! They will then research rocket
Students who have been studying logarithms can apply them using a chemistry lab to discover the pH of acetic acid (white vinegar) and even compare this to other acids.
This lesson takes place in a classroom over two weeks. Students may work in small groups of 2-3. Prior to the robotics challenge, teachers should facilitate student discussion through guided lessons
Ice Cores and Climate Change
This ice core activity takes place within a lesson on climate change that utilizes PBS Learning Media. The teacher will build ice cores for students to investigate and gather data. Students will use
