STEM Lesson Plans

Students engage in science, math, and technology skills to analyze and interpret data about rain and weather across different regions.

This lesson walks students through reimagining a schoolyard space by calculating scale model and creating scale objects.

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 lesson is a fantastic way to introduce physical and chemical properties. It includes hands-on stations activities. In this lesson, students will be able to really see the properties of matter at

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

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

Engineering of the traditional and contemporary Navajo/Diné Hogan using the sun's light to produce electricity. Students create a model of the Navajo/Diné hogan and incorporate solar energy concepts.

In this lesson, students will create their own golden record that may travel throughout our solar system and beyond. The Golden Record acts as a time capsule and students collaborate which popular

Students will construct a rocket by exploring the relationship of the mass in the nose cone to the success of a launch. Students will learn about "center of mass' and how to find it, as well as the

Plants are the basis for nearly all agricultural production. Agricultural plant crops produce food, fiber, fuel, and aesthetically pleasing plants. Plants utilize energy from the Sun to convert water

Notes Prerequisites: This lesson requires prior experience with Edison Robots. Context: This lesson can be taught to a single class or used in an after-school coding/robotics club. Students should be

Students will plant and observe plants from seed to full germination while making observations on growth in this engaging lesson. This will be done using a science notebook to record germination

Students will create Rube Goldberg machines from simple machines in this engaging lesson. The teacher can determine materials such as wooden planks, paper towel rolls, bottle caps, marbles, cardboard

Classes will prepare several garden bins for planting. By using a tape measure, students take into consideration the recommended distances of seed planting described on the seed packet and the

In this lesson, students will identify the significance of the numbers found in and around their home. Making these connections will help strengthen number sense and provide a real-world framework to

The students will create a Three Sisters Garden by participating in a teamwork activity, listening to a read aloud, watching a video, creating a diagram, planting the garden, and creating a video

Students will use stomp rockets to collect data. With this data they will create and analyze trends of a scatterplot.

Students will analyze shadows to determine how light moves and changes throughout the day.

Students will germinate seeds and record any observations during the process.
