STEM Lesson Plans

In this lesson, students will conduct an investigation to see how temperature can affect the state of matter.

Engage your students in this read-aloud lesson, integrating ELA and Computer Science. Students will be able to identify words and phrases in stories that suggest feelings. Students will also use

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

Students will learn how robots help complete repetitive tasks for humans. Robots use a series of steps that are programed into their circuits. It must be done systematically and include each step, in

Students will explore the different types of mouth parts and how their feeding needs are met. Students will 'pretend' to be insects with different mouth types and collect data on their success on

This is a two part lesson for students to have fun with robots! In this first part, encourage reading in a fun way! Students choose a book they have read and write down the story elements. They will

Engage your students in this read-aloud lesson, integrating ELA, Math, and Computer Science. With prompting and support, students will be able to ask and answer questions about key details in a text

An engaging read-aloud lesson integrating ELA & Computer Science. Students will listen to Balloons Over Broadway and be able to complete a compare & contrast diagram. Students will also complete a

The Mystery Box Investigation combines science concepts about properties of matter, how we use and identify matter based on its properties, and the mathematical concepts needed to calculate density

Students will have the opportunity to apply the skils of finding area of a rectangle and volume of rectangular prism when they determine the area and volume of garden beds at the school.

This lesson combines plant science with measurement and line plot graphing. Students will research plant needs through books and media to plan and conduct an experiment which tests different growing

Students are presented with a real-world problem, the newly poured delivery ramp for the cafeteria is too slick, students are tasked with suggesting a surfacing that will increase the ramp's safety

Students will create a scientific claim that is supported by evidence as to which car is the better deal, the Hot Wheels car or the generic car. During the four day activity, students will conduct

In this engaging lesson, students will program a Bee-Bot and answer prompts that describe familiar topics, likes, dislikes and family members. This is a beginning of the year activity. Students will

In this hands-on lesson, students program a Bee-Bot and name the student, teacher, principal, or important places at your school. This is a beginning of the year activity. Students will be coding a

Bee-Bot is ready for math! In this engaging lesson, students break apart numbers and make different combinations of numbers to make a whole number. Students will be using a Bee-Bot to code and show

When Res is hurling towards Mars, he needs a parachute that will help him land safely. Can you design a parachute that will help Res land safely on Mars? Students will design a parachute using coffee

This lesson plan will encourage students to reconstruct one of the most ancient engineering designs. Not only will they explore how canals have shaped human survival, but also how we continue to use

Students will learn about animals that are native to their area and design and engineer their own animal bridge to help a specific animal species of their choosing to cross the road safely. There is

In this lesson, students will construct an argument supported by evidence for how plants and animals (including humans) can change the environment to meet their needs. There is a story integration
