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
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
Discover the power of hydraulics and pneumatics! Engaging in STEM activity on building systems and understanding fluid dynamics.
Unleash creativity with drones and coding! Explore the exciting world of block coding and its application in drone technology.
Empower with solar, motors & wireless! Unravel renewable energy, motor tech & wireless applications in an engaging STEM journey.
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
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 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
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
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

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
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 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
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 learn about rate through their lettuce seeds in our hydroponic machine. Students use an Excel spreadsheet to document their findings.
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.
Students will redesign the front face of the school, to improve the curb appeal. Students will identify space by using math equations to properly create a plan for school makeover. Students will use
In this outstanding lesson, teachers facilitate students to design and build Meet Edison Robots for Cougar Clash “BattleBot” robot battle classroom tournament. (We named ours Cougar Clash as your
VR in the classroom, oh my! This Day 1 lesson provides students an introductory understanding of chain reactions, Rube Goldberg and his machines, the Oculus (Meta) Quest 2, the online game Dynamic
