Students have the opportunity to explore solar energy and the engineering process by creating solar ovens. This lesson integrates communication skills, the engineering process, data collection, and
Math is All Around Us
Inspired by the picture book, "Count on Me," Kindergarten students will demonstrate the Engineering Design Process by collaboratively creating a model of a new toy for their playground, observing the
Teach students about the unique and amazing structures of plants and animals in the Sonoran Desert. Students will learn about how specific structures help animals and plants survive the unique
Students will construct an explanation using evidence to demonstrate that objects can affect other objects even when they are not touching. They will explore electric, magnetic, and gravitational
Description: In this engaging lesson, students dive into the fascinating world of bone anatomy by creating styrofoam models of bones and simulating fractures. Through hands-on activities, students use
In this lesson students will explore the world of VR and proceed by creating a model of what their VR world would look like if they could make one.
This lesson serves to provide an extension to lesson one. In this lesson, students will have the opportunity to build their own model of the solar system to scale, utilizing math concepts of exponents
Beautiful Biomes! In this project, students from the 4th and 6th grades will collaborate and explore the science standards of Arizona. The project's main focus is to study the impact of human
In this project, students from the 4th and 6th grades will collaborate and explore the science standards of Arizona. The project's main focus is to study the impact of human activities on the
This STEM lesson is all about foam gliders, aerodynamics, and the engineering design process. Students will explore flight through foam gliders and then use what they learn to plan and construct their
This lesson plan brings us to the life of Winter and how her prosthetic tail helped her live a better life. The students would learn about the engineering design process in prosthetics and experience
This lesson serves as visual example of the concept of exponents and how scientific notation is utilized in science. Additionally, students will utilize scientific notation to measure distance of
In the unit, students will identify ways abiotic and biotic components work together in an ecosystem and what happens when it's disrupted through a analyzing wildlife roadkill in Arizona. Students
This is part 2 of a two-part series focused on the effects of grafting tomato plants to potato root stock in order to create "pomato" plants. This lesson is written for junior high students but can be
In this lesson, students will work in groups to design a model that will demonstrate the best erosion techniques for the model of a road experiencing flooding or heavy rainfall. Students will be given
Students will continue to learn about the mining process and will get the chance to do some mining in this lesson. They will get to determine the best area to mine using core samples. Students will
Students will create flying helicopter models to change the movement and motion by changing different variables. Changing the movement of an object requires a net force to act upon it. This lesson
This lesson is designed for students to conduct research in teams to create the best catapult that can launch a mini dog bone the farthest. Students use the engineering design process to create their
This lesson is intended to be the second lesson within a series. After the first lesson, exploring the transfer of power within a system, Students utilize this lesson, lesson 2, to explain how and
Using the engineering design process, students will identify a structural or spatial problem on their school campus and then plan, design, evaluate and redesign a structural and spatial solution while
In this engaging lesson, students will use cams to practice data collection and graphing skills. A variety of resources are built into this lesson including a slow reveal graph with directions, videos
This project will be an opportunity for students to demonstrate their understanding of cell structures and functions in a creative, collaborative way that will require critical thinking. Students will
In this lesson, students focus on the engineering design process to help them design, build, and test a functional bow and arrow system like the character Brian Robeson in the book "Hatchet". Students
After completing a unit on weather, students will be challenged to research, design, construct and attach a snow plow to their Edison robot. Then they will create a scratch code that will navigate
