STEM Lesson Plans

Students will brainstorm, and make predictions of why an airplane can fly. The teacher will present the knowledge of aerodynamics to the students using video , and giving them opportunity to process

In this lesson on "Friction Fires and Its Associated Phenomena" the objectives are as follows: Students will be able to explain the process of friction fire, including the materials and techniques

This lesson teaches how to give and receive constructive feedback by using a group carousel feedback format, and how to create a compelling presentation using Keynote, Google Slides, or PowerPoint.

This lesson teaches 3D design using Tinkercad. It provides tutorials for teachers to use in a hands-on lab to orient students to 3D design so students can begin to draft their own prototypes.

This lesson introduces students to 3D printing. It provides some background videos on real-world 3D printing use, and then uses the Jot Notes technique to generate ideas for their own designs.

This lesson plan explores the science of natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, and volcanoes, and hurricanes. It is a lesson that would help enhance student's vocabulary and

In this lesson, students will apply the knowledge of calculating volume to determine the amount of soil they need to fill their planters. They will also use their skills to multiply and divide the

This is a series of lessons that discusses the process and factors that may affect and may not affect seed germination. This also builds the background of the students about the needs of the plants

Students use color theory, write recipes, and use an iterative design process to create a natural dye.

Using the Engineering Design Process, students work in teams to create a covered wagon that the Bee-Bot pulls as they program on a mat from Missouri to Oregon. Students are learning about the Western

The lesson is designed for use as part of a unit on energy transfer within a system. Before doing this lesson, students should have a basic understanding of potential and kinetic energy. Students will

Students use the engineering design process to create paper rocket protoypes and complete a cost-benefit analysis to help choose the best one.

Context: This lesson takes place in a classroom for two or more class periods Students may work in small groups of 2-4. An emphasis on the experiment of making an indestructible Edison robot Creative

Students will first build and collect data on how fast their solar car is. Then students can change items to increase the efficiency of the solar panel to increase the overall speed of the solar car.

Students will increase efficiency of the solar panels by using angles. Students are given a solar panel, protractor, and a multimeter. They need to complete a pre- investigation plane before they

Students will be reading an article and answering questions on Solar Panels to help them complete their model of how the solar panel converts the sun's energy into electricity,.

Introduction to how a solar panel works. Students get to explore how to power a fan and lights using a solar panel and a motor. Students get to see a diagram of a solar panel and start to make a model

This lesson is from Arizona Game and Fish Department. The lesson has students look at data on elk-vehicle collisions on State Route 260. The road is being widened to a two-lane divided road with elk

This lesson helps kids have an understanding of how our eyes capture light. A camera captures pictures of objects using a similar way so in this experiment, kids will be making a camera using simple

In this lesson, students begin to develop questions about what is being wasted in our school. It could be waste during lunch or waste as an overall school. Students will conduct an investigation
