In this hands-on lesson, students explore designing bridge prototypes with spaghetti to find weak points and redesign a new prototype. This is the 2nd lesson in a series of 3.
In this lesson plan, students will be asked to model and introduce an invasive species that they think will adapt and reproduce quickly but will cause harm in Arizona ecosystems. Students are expected
Students will create a scary monster that meets criteria and then present their monsters to their peers. You can use this with the book "I Need My Monster" or other themed books. You can also add in
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
A high school physics plan that allows students to explore with different lenses and lasers.
In part 1 of this investigation, groups were challenged to design for speed and collect data to find the fastest car in the class. Using those designs, part 2 will test the mass of a car vs the power
This is the 3rd part of the lesson series where students will determine the thrust and stability of their water bottle rockets to answer their essential question: Using the Design Process how can we
In this lesson, students will be given a region where they will need to research and collect data with their groups to determine patterns and formulate predications about the types of disasters that
Lesson objective: Students will explore how to create a lighting design that enhances the purpose of a song in a Broadway show through a “Broadway Song Lighting Design” Performance Project. In this
Lesson Objective: Students will explore how lighting design can affect the mood evoked during a performance through the use of colors through a “You Be the Lighting Designer” Google Slideshow Project
Lesson Objective: Students will understand the functions and qualities of stage lighting as they engage in a “Light-a-Lego” Video Project. They will design and engineer a lighting video project that
Lesson Objective: Students will learn the purpose of stage lighting and how theatrical lighting can help shape the way audience members experience a performance. They will learn about GOBO lighting
This is a culminating project for the end of a Space Science unit. Students will each research a unique star, then work in a group to research the constellation of their star. In groups, students will
~Students apply the engineering design process as they learn the advantages and disadvantages of the greenhouse effect. ~Students will work collaboratively to construct a miniature greenhouse to
This STEAM project will have us exploring some of the issues or problems associated with food and creating solutions to educate and persuade our community about how our food is produced and making the
In this 7 week unit, students will utilize resources around them to create a garden for a culminating taco party! Students will work on science, math, and ELA within the unit. Feel free to host this
This project encourages students to be more knowledgeable on the beauty and natural resources of the Grand Canyon State, Arizona, by creating informative posters and hosting a classroom gallery walk
Collaboratively, students will make a 3D-model of their chosen Arizona biome. Their model must show the different interrelationships between biotic and abiotic factors. After project making, students
In this investigation, 9th grade students will design and construct a car to test against classmates for the fastest car in the class. Students will test, collect data, calculate and share data with
