STEM Lesson Plans

Students will collaborate to design a school map to include living and nonliving 3-dimensional objects. Students will use a Cubetto or Sphero device to navigate through a student created map

Students will create an interactive soundboard (assistive technology) to support students in lower grade levels with skills such as math, reading, or language. They will use Makey Makey to support the

This lesson pairs STEM with the book - "Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief". Students will discuss characters, their relationships to the Greek Gods, the importance of the Greek Gods

In this kindergarten computer science lesson, students explore algorithms through a playful "Looping Train Adventure," connecting everyday actions to the way computers follow instructions in a

In this high school lesson, students will get the opportunity to engage in scientific research, studying sustainability and fuel options, while creating models to represent their knowledge.

This is a four-day lesson where students work in groups to design a fixture using LEGO bricks that holds a marker in an upright position while attached to their Edison Robots. Students code the robot

Through guided lessons and research, students generate their own circuit review questions by creating a board game that requires designing and building several circuits.

Students will apply STEM principles to design and build a working circuit in the shape of a heart, incorporating science concepts, technology tools, engineering skills, and mathematical calculations.

Students will model series and parallel circuits in Tinkercad and transfer the design to a physical breadboard. At the end of the lesson, students must use the design process to design and build a

Students will research, design and build a treehouse using the engineering design process. They will practice budgeting by pretending to have $100 to spend by using a supply budget sheet. Students

In this lesson students will learn about the Makey Makey. They will create conductive touch points, record voice in scratch, and connect Makey to create an interactive poster. This can be used for any

This lesson is an introduction to Micro:bit. Students will learn parts of the device, as well as how to program and download a simple dice randomizer. Once the program is downloaded to the microbit

The lesson is adapted from resources created by the Green Drone AZ Project. This is module 1 of 4 featuring focused activities to address real-world environmental challenges within Arizona communities

In this lesson students will use the Engineering Design Process to create a working foosball table. Students will also code a Micro:bit that they will use to keep score between the two teams.

The Navajo Code Talker Mockup Radio Transmitter Project is an ELA/STEM hands-on lesson designed for 11th-grade students. This project-based lesson that involves students working in small groups to

Students will learn the history of rainsticks. They will engineer and design their rainstick. Students have to figure out how much rice, beans and corn goes inside to make the sound of rain. Finally

This is the second lesson in a series of four lessons on building a robotic rover with the BBC micro:bit. In this lesson, students will design, model, and 3D print brackets for a TT motor to find the
