STEM Lesson Plans

In this hands-on lesson, students will demonstrate their understanding of robotics and coding by creating a course for their robot to move on. The course will include turns, circles and straight ways.

In this lesson, students will learn about rate through their lettuce seeds in our hydroponic machine. Students use an Excel spreadsheet to document their findings.

By creating a stop motion animation, students will gain a deeper understanding of how landforms develop, are weathered, and erode. This is an engaging way to help infer the history of the current

This STEM project allowed students to embark on an exciting journey of entrepreneurship with "Ride to Success." In this immersive STEM lesson plan, students will not only learn the ins and outs of

In this engaging lesson, students will program Edison robots to travel forward for 3 seconds. They will run 5 trials to measure distance, collecting data each time. They will compare data with

In this lesson students will find the diameter of M&Ms. They will enter their data into a class data bank using Microsoft Excel. They will analyze the class data set and then find the mean diameter of

Students start by listening to "Those Darn Squirrels", by Adam Rubin. Instead of helping the birds, the students will explore the technology and the engineering design process to help those pesky

In this lesson students will work in groups to design a new weather instrument that will better predict weather. They will do a gallery walk and have the opportunity to redesign based on feedback

This lesson plan is a continuation of Part 1 (link to Part 1 is included). In this lesson, students will apply what they've learned from deconstructing boxes, and they will design their own unique

In this lesson, students will deconstruct cell phone boxes and other tech-packages to understand how packaging design relates to consumer experience. They will analyze what makes some designs more

Students will use the materials provided to engineer a vehicle that is powered by a robot and deliver a treat to a chosen location. Students will use the robots you have. I use Sphero and Edison

Students are given a mission to map and collect resources with a robot needed in a Mars colony. Students need to use coordinate points to create a route from a starting point to a destination for

This week-long experience teaches students about the computer science and robotics behind NASA's Mars Rover program using Ozobots as Mars Rovers. Students will first build background on the history of

This hands-on lesson uses vermicomposting to apply virtually all of the science & engineering practices as well as several in math. Enough for a unit but a few stand-alone pieces can help your

Students will learn the basics of coding concepts such as sequencing, algorithms, and conditional statements, while also reinforcing math skills related to counting and addition. They will be using a

This lesson is modeled after STEMAzing's lesson, "Picture Perfect Rover Cell Phone Holder”. Students will build a cell phone holder for their Edison Bot, plan a drive for the Bot to collect photos or

In this hands-on lesson, students will design, construct, and defend their hummingbird feeder design.

Empower with solar, motors & wireless! Unravel renewable energy, motor tech & wireless applications in an engaging STEM journey.

Unleash creativity with drones and coding! Explore the exciting world of block coding and its application in drone technology.

Discover the power of hydraulics and pneumatics! Engaging in STEM activity on building systems and understanding fluid dynamics.

In this Part 1 of 2, students will be building background knowledge on the human eye and camera. Students will be looking at the structure and function of both. Students will be working in small

In this hands-on lesson, students will be challenged to complete an obstacle course with a Sphero/RVR/Edison through coding. Students will be given a task list to complete and will be timed. Math

In this hands-on lesson, students will use robotics to create an automated system that simulates the cleanup of a natural disaster. In this case, a nuclear reactor explosion. Students will program
