STEM in the Garden- Wild Bee Hotel
Third grade students will apply their knowledge of the significance of bee pollination by designing and creating a Wild Bee Hotel in a collaborative group which will incorporate literacy, mathematical
This lesson will show students that genetic traits come from a lot of different places, and we are all different but still made of the same things. It will use real-time data collection to present
Students explore how circuitry works with a hands-on lesson where they design and build their own working pressure plate. The use of a MakeyMakey is incorporated with helpful video resources and
This is the 2nd lesson that walks learners through the process of developing apps with MIT App Inventor. Students will create a detailed plan for an app that solves a problem, followed by learning to
This is the 1st lesson in a series of 2 where students are guided through an introduction to designing apps with MIT App Inventor. Students will brainstorm ideas for their own apps, follow tutorials
In this outstanding lesson, students will apply their knowledge of how natural and human-caused changes to habitats or climate can impact our world in a stop motion film. The lesson covers a Science
This lesson uses Edison Robots but any programmable robot can be used. Students explore how to block code a robot to create a sequence of events. Their program is tested for accuracy and revised for
More VR integration in the classroom, oh my! This is the second lesson of a two-day exploration of chain reactions. On day one, students received a general overview of chain reactions, Rube Goldberg
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
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
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 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.
Using Stop Motion Animation to Show Step-by-Step Instructions and Solve Real World Math Problems
Stop motion is a great way for students to slow down working through the steps in math to demonstrate their understanding of math concepts. Students can film a short story or step-by-step instructions
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
In this engaging lesson, students construct a real solar oven, cook food, gather data, and analyze the data to interpret if their oven was successful or not. The lesson culminates with a presentation.
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
Through this kindergarten STEM project, students will develop an understanding of weather patterns and the changes that occur during different seasons. By engaging in hands-on activities, observations
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
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
