This lesson will take your students through the process of making a lunar phases flipbook. When flipped it will be animated and look like the moon going through each phase. Students will learn the

This lesson plan focuses on the following standards. Construct an explanation of the origin, expansion, and scale of the universe based on astronomical evidence. ● The study of stars' light spectra

Students will use the internet to collect data on a given State (or place) for 5 days. They will then make predictions on the weather and how to keep people in that community safe. They will then

This lesson, adapted from NOAA, focuses on tides. Students pretend to be a ship captain delivering materials to a construction company. However, their ship must go under a bridge. Students must find

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

This is the last part of the evidence of the Big Bang Theory. Students will learn of nucleosynthesis and the products of the big bang. They will watch videos and engage in activities that model the

In this lesson, students will understand the impact of oil spills in the ocean. They will work cooperatively to come up with solutions and materials to clean up a simulated oil spill. Students will

In this hands-on lesson, students will explore the water cycle and learn how it works. Students will be able to make their own model and observe the water cycle in class. They create an art piece and

This lesson is part two of evidence of the big bang theory. Students investigate red shift and blue shift and how it supports the expansion of the universe. They will complete an online simulation
