STEM Lesson Plans

In this set of lesson plans for "A Song for a Whale" by Lynne Kelly, students will investigate compasses and whale migration. The final project for the novel is a choice board of activities that

In this lesson plan, students make use of their knowledge about homoestasis, osmosis, and types of solutions to design their own science investigation that will enable them to prove and answer: Why it

Students will engage in a phenomena based lab in which they simulate relative dating of sedimentary rocks, an earthquake and volcanic eruption. In the lab, students will see how the layers at the

Students will develop a deep understanding about environmental sustainability while creating an implementation plan for a UN sustainability goal. This lesson focuses on science and technology, with

This plan was created by me and used in my afterschool STEM club in January. It tests building a soda can heater. The plan begins with the story, Snowy Day, and brings into focus the need for heat and

This lesson give emphasis on the systems A and B of the chemical reaction that represent the reactants and products. This also focuses on investigating not just the system involved in the chemical

This lesson discusses and gives you a more in-depth understanding of the relationship of particles that are held together by a certain amount of energy. The energy is required to break bonds and the

In this lesson, the students will plan and carry out investigations to explore sound propagation and its characteristics through simple activities. They will discover in which medium sound travels

Students build a wind turbine and test how much work it can do. Students also use data about wind energy production to complete a Claim-Evidence-Reasoning assignment.

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

Students explore the solar system by conducting research and display their knowledge through creative writing and poetry.

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.

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 apply physics and engineering principles to design and construct a functional mini-golf course using homemade materials.
