STEM Lesson Plans

Students will review and reinforce the rules of adding and subtracting integers through stories, games, and animations created with scratch.mit.edu. Student will explore what others have created and

Students will build a propulsion system that can deliver a payload to a given location in this engaging paper rocket engineering lesson. Students think critically and problem solve as they work

In this hands-on and engaging lesson, students build and launch model rockets. They explore the forces acting on the rocket and design an experiment They predict the time to apogee based on

In this outstanding lesson, teachers facilitate students to design and build Meet Edison Robots for Cougar Clash “BattleBot” robot battle classroom tournament. (We named ours Cougar Clash as your

Empower with solar, motors & wireless! Unravel renewable energy, motor tech & wireless applications in an engaging STEM journey.

Unleash creativity with drones and coding! Explore the exciting world of block coding and its application in drone technology.

Discover the power of hydraulics and pneumatics! Engaging in STEM activity on building systems and understanding fluid dynamics.

Students play a game to model and graph the effects an invasive species on a local ecosystem before analyzing a case study and completing a research project.

Students are learning to add, subtract, multiply and divide rational numbers using various numbers on a mat and driving an Edison robot to determine what rational numbers will be used.

In this lesson students will demonstrate their deeper understanding of how the concept of slope is applied to the real-world construction of the wheelchair access ramp. Students will use the knowledge

In this lesson, students will participate in a hands-on activity to learn about area and perimeter while also learning about structures and functions of plants by designing a garden space that

Methane emissions are far more potent then CO2 emissions in the short-run in the atmosphere yet this is rarely covered in the media. Students will create a multi-media public service campaign to cover

Students examine the relationship between a ball's bounce height and its drop height to see a linear relationship. They then calculate the slope of their data to compare "bounciness" with other groups

Students think about dipping a cube in paint, then count the amount of faces that are painted (either 1, 2, 3, or none) they then make a table with the data and are asked to find any patterns they may

Using Vernier motion sensor technology (not included) students will model their position vs time on Vernier Graphical Analysis.

Context: This lesson takes place in a classroom for two or more class periods Students may work in small groups of 2-4. An emphasis on the experiment of making an indestructible Edison robot Creative

Students will build the distance formula in a spreadsheet to create a sort of "calculator." Students begin by comparing standard math notation with spreadsheets, then practice programming simple math

Students will design and build their own popsicle stick catapults, exploring principles of force, motion, and engineering. This lesson does have a Halloween theme to it, but can be modified is needed.

In this activity, students will use a table to organize information, create a graph to display data and use the correct labels. Students will also recognize the relationship among the table, the graph

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

The lesson introduces how the earth layers and the fossil record shows a relative time scale. The math concept of a function will be explored. Students will use cause and effect changes of Earth

This a hands on activity that will have the students measure the frequency of a resonating glass bottle by using their cells phones. They will then combine with other groups to play a well known song

Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions

In this unique and engaging lesson, students will simulate the Oregon Trail journey using STEM to make decisions and analyze outcomes. They will collaborate and communicate effectively with their
