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
