Students have a book to read about the three states of matter. Students experiment with the three states of matter of water. They record their observations in their STEM notebook. Students look at a

This plan is meant for 3 days of work. Two books go with this plan. Two types of model rockets are included in this plan. Discussions and entries into a STEM Notebook are part of this plan.

This lesson gives a hands-on way of teaching the 2nd law of motion. Students are able to experiment with different objects with different masses to discover how mass affects force and acceleration.

In this lesson the students will apply the knowledge of thermal energy to design, build and test a container that keeps cold beverages cold.

In this lesson the students will determine the factors that affect the strength of electric and magnetic forces.

In this lesson the students will learn to identify some common household substances whether it is acid or base using red cabbage juice.

Today students will design a mini golf hole. Their hole theme should be based on the inventor they researched.
