This lesson plan describes the different process points of construction of a Truss Bridge and why these bridges are useful. This lesson plan includes objectives, assessments and some samples of Truss
This lesson is lesson 3 of 4 so it is designed to be used in conjunction with the two previous lessons. The students will continue using their newly acquired drone flying skills with both DroneBlocks
Students will use solar panels to transfer solar energy to a fountain. Students will be able to explore and demonstrate the functioning of a solar energy fountain.
This is a detailed math and engineering based lesson plan that covers the processes of building and testing an Archimedes screw for water movement. Students will be working in a STEM summer camp in
This lesson plan focuses on the use of several materials to create a rocket and a launcher. Remodel the rocket as needed to validate Newton’s third law of motion and projectile motion.
Simple Machine: Pulley, helping Rapunzel escape the tower
Using pumpkins, design and create Cinderella's carriage. This lesson can demonstrate Potential Energy turning into Kinetic Energy
Students will study car barrier engineering in this lesson. They will study how Newton’s Second Law of motion can be applied to determine how to decrease the force of impact during a collision. They
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
Students will read the novel, "The Lion of Mars", design & launch paper rockets, and then design a sustainable Mars Colony inspired by the novel. This hands-on lesson is scheduled to take around 15
This lesson is based on a Navajo Story: "The Three Little Sheep". The story connects to the famous, "The Three Little Pigs". Students become engineers and create different dwelling models: a grass hut
