This lesson is an activity to show how projectile motion and many other motions in nature fallow a parabolic curve. Students will manipulate that knowledge and analyze data using small play tanks to
Students will create a STEM Cardboard challenge after listening to the story Not a Box by Antoinette Portis.
Students will use a Sphero bot to collect data on the actual speed of the Sphero bot and use the data to make predictions as to how far the bot will travel in a given time frame.
Students will be able to obtain, evaluate, and communicate evidence about how natural and human-caused changes to habitats or climate can impact populations. Additionally, they will be able to
This is lesson one of a 4 lesson unit. Students will apply the engineering design process with a problem scenario focusing on thermal energy efficiency in a home. The unit incorporates collecting
This lesson plan has three main objectives. The first is that students will be able to recreate a map of the canal with 3D structures along the way. The largest structure being Casa Grande, or the
Students build a free standing structure while following set parameters. The challenge is that the structure's base cannot be larger than a 1" cube! Students will need to work together to balance
In this high school science/engineering lesson on exploring cracked steel, students will delve into the concept of cracked steel and its impact on structural integrity. They will define composites and
In this project, students will create a professional blueprint of their real-life home. Students will then do research to find at least ten places in the home that impact the environment (positive or
