Students investigate the movement of electricity within a circuit and examine how a circuit can be used to power a device where electrical energy is transferred to complete a task by making wobble

Students will engineer a game with rules and directions to help understand and practice proportional ratios with as little material needed as possible.

This is the second part of a fun introduction to engineering. In this lesson, students will create a board game with recycled materials based on a story they have made. Link to 1st lesson and helpful

This is the first part a fun beginning introduction to engineering. In this lesson, students will create a board game with recycled material based on a story they have made. Links to the 2nd lesson

This lesson is a STEM performance task after the students learn how solar power and solar panels work. Students draw attention to solar energy, as it is not only helpful with our power systems but can

In this health-related lesson, students will understand the significance of handwashing, be familiar with the proper handwashing techniques, and recognize the positive impact it has on personal and

Students work in groups of 2-3 and use Bee-Bot robots to practice using a map key and symbol cards to program the Bee-Bot to find locations on a map. Students program, test, and modify their algorithm

Students will engineer their very own LEGO planter by using LEGOs and LEGO bases! This fun and engaging lesson incorporates science and math with the world of LEGOs. Students first listen to a story

In this lesson, students use their knowledge of electric power to design a model circuit that expends less electrical power. They do this by using the PhET Circuit Construction Kit: DC and they may

You are a computer programmer giving a computer step by step instructions. You will be programing a code giving the computer simple commands to be carried out by the computer. You are completing a

Students will design a balloon rocket. They will then create a fish line track for the rocket to follow. The track will be able to me modified to test different angles of ascent. This will allow

Exploring chemical reactions is highly engaging for the students if taught in a student-centered lesson. This lesson was inspired by the activity of 6th-Grade Amplify Science, Exploring Chemical

A high school physics plan that allows students to explore with different lenses and lasers.
