STEM Lesson Plans

Students will be using their science and math knowledge to engineer a golf course! This is a great way for students to use that knowledge in a real life way! Students get the chance to explore how

In groups students will construct a roller coaster made completely out of paper that a marble can travel on. The goal is to have the "ride" last for a longer time than other and be able to explain the

Summary Each of the first two Basic Handling lessons is approximately 5 minutes in length. The onboard “Flight Instructor” will instruct student trainees on what they should be doing and interacting

Students will create Rube Goldberg machines from simple machines in this engaging lesson. The teacher can determine materials such as wooden planks, paper towel rolls, bottle caps, marbles, cardboard

Students are challenged to complete a Ziggurat temple with a working marble run attached. It is a challenge for students to construct the longest working marble run.

Students will plan and design a maze using the supplies provided to move one marble from the start line to the finish line. They will learn about potential and kinetic energy properties. We will use

This lesson plan focuses on the following standards : HS.P3U2.7 Use mathematics and computational thinking to explain how Newton’s laws are used in engineering and technologies to create products to

This lesson plan will focus on different fun and engaging activities pertaining to one of the most complicated standards in physics, which is projectile motion. At the end of this lesson students are

In this lesson, students will learn about air resistance, friction, and Newton's Second Law of Motion. They will then collaborate and communicate effectively with their peers to complete an

In this lesson, students will learn the differences between kinetic and potential energy, and the meaning of conservation of energy. Students will also, compare and contrast balanced and unbalanced

This lesson plan is designed for students to investigate the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration. The lesson starts with a phenomena video and hypothesis question. It is followed by a

Students will be creating their own testing station for sound waves! Each group will get 5 glasses and will put a different amount of water in each of the glasses. Then the students will tap the glass

Students will better understand gas, liquid, and solid states of matter through hands-on learning stations and a create-a-toy design challenge.

This lesson will explore aerodynamics, rocketry, and principles of space flights. Students will act as engineers. Their job is to research, plan, design, and build a water bottle rocket that will

This is a CSI lesson where students solve mystery on Physical and Chemical change. This is an engaging way as students will conduct an investigation like a real crime investigator.

This lesson provides an engaging STEM project by making a catapult. The goal is to shoot a pingpong ball in a basket. Student's knowledge on forces and engineering design processes are essential to

This STEM activity is designed to explore force, motion, friction, and speed with a student-friendly and engaging activity. Students will plan and create a marble maze using simple materials. Material

This lesson will provide students with hands-on experience to design a roller coaster that will demonstrate transformation and conservation of mechanical energy. Students will learn the concept of

This lesson plan is the nitty-gritty principles of roller coaster. It can be taught and used for 4th grade and 5th grade students. The first part of the lesson is the discussion of the principles

First students will learn what engineers do and a few different strategies they might use to build strong buildings. Students will create a structure of any shape using given materials to withhold two

Students will begin designing a container to keep and egg safe when dropped from various heights. As they begin the lesson, students will watch a video and discuss science and engineering practices

Using the Introduction to Hydroponics lab, introduce students to the features of the Hydroponic Systems. Students will explore the different types of grow mediums and grow lights used in the systems

Students will use multiple modes of learning to learn about how force is affected by mass changes. The book Newton and Me will be read aloud and used for a discussion. Finally students will construct

This lesson uses a Modeling Instruction approach to developing the graphical and mathematical relationship commonly known as Newton's 2nd Law for students in Grades 9-12. Students design an experiment
