STEM Lesson Plans

Mad For Magnets is a lesson plan for K-4th grades. Scholars will learn about magnets, how they attract and repel, north and south poles to apply to the assigned challenge. Scholars will design and

From this lesson, students will discover how friction affects how things move. This is an excellent activity that will allow students to be creative and build a marble run to show friction. This

Go through different STEM, reading, and writing activities with Roz and her friends in The Wild Robot. Students will problem solve, participate in discussions, and learn about artificial intelligence

Students will learn about forces and motion by building a straw rocket. They will measure how far their rocket flies and then build a second rocket to see if they can make it go farther.

Students will use science and engineering practices to design and build a parachute out of everyday items. The parachute must be able to carry a metal washer to a specific target on the ground while

Students after learning how to use EDBlocks and EDScratch programming for Edison Robots will go to a younger class and teach those students how to do it too.

Introducing how EdScratch programming works with the Edison Robots. Activities and ideas linked in the lesson.

Lesson Two of Four: This lesson will help to show students there are lots of possibilities when building robots and students will be able to create their own prototype.

First of Four. Introduction to how Edison Robots work. Students will self discover some of the possibilities of what the robots can do.

This lesson plan will allow students to explore the use of a PhET simulation in creating a series and parallel circuit, then apply this knowledge in creating a real circuit. Students will also learn

Design a helicopter out of paper only. Students will explore design and paper types.

Students will create a geometric net to estimate how many cheerios will fit in the cube. They will use volume to create a real sized cereal box that they can fit 100 cheerios into without having lots

Students will be asked to design and build a playground using the given materials construction paper, toilet paper/paper towel rolls, jumbo/regular popsicle sticks, and glue/tape. They will learn

As part of a unit on renewable energy, students build and collect data on a solar powered fan. They learn about agrivoltaics and build a model of a racking system. They explore angles and energy use.

For this lesson, students will use the engineering design process for the tiny house design challenge, which will include a design board, floor plan, scale conversion sheet and a tiny house prototype

Student Objectives: Your challenge is to thoroughly research real-world oil spills and what has worked to help clean them up in the past, then engineer your own prototype boom to clean up a simulated

Students will build the strongest boat they can using only aluminum foil. They will learn about engineering design, water displacement, the effects of gravity, decimal multiplication, and geometry.

Students program and present Lego Robot to be able to effectively use different data types such as time (seconds), speed, and degrees of rotation. Program and synchronize motor movements of a

Students design a 3D bubble wand in Tinkercad and print on a 3D printer.

In this lesson, students will explore how sound moves through physical matter by building a cup and string "telephone." Following testing their design, students will create a video or podcast to

How is Res going to collect samples from Mars? Can you use Edison to design a collector that can help Res collect Mars samples? In this lesson students will use Edison to design a sample collector

Students will focus is on the historical time period of 1763- 1900 CE. The objective is to select a historically accurate person and research the person's story. Then students will plan, create
