These 16 STEM labs are also part of my "STEM for the whole year" 36 Pack Mega Bundle which includes 16 Pack #1, 16 Pack #2, and 4 BONUS activities!!! Click Here!!!

***If you are interested in a differentiated version of these activities for grades K-8, please click here. There are 22 activities that span all of these grade levels.

You can customize the text in the Worksheets, Grading Rubrics, Materials Lists, and Teacher Instructions to suit your class! A link on the materials list page will take you to the Google Slides file. It's super-easy.

Each activity includes STEM teacher instructions, student instructions (worksheet), a group-work grading rubric, a demonstration video for the teacher, a materials needed list, and the related NGSS standards!

In the teacher demonstration video, I give you an overview of the activity challenge, talk about the materials involved and where to get them, demonstrate how to set up the challenge for the students, and discuss the science involved. Teachers have found these videos to be very helpful by showing them step-by-step how to run the activity and giving them a better understanding of the science behind it.

These activities will challenge students to work together in groups to complete the given task. These activities are fun, engaging, and the students will learn science in the process. Group work and problem-solving are at the heart of these challenges.

Each activity challenge will end with a real-world research question, video, or activity. It is usually an extension of what the students just discovered and learned. The students will be involved, excited, and looking forward to future activity challenges in your classroom.

STEM learning encourages engineering skills with experimenting, prototyping, inventing, and creating. Students use their imaginations to brainstorm solutions and use their critical thinking skills to determine which solutions work best and why. STEM projects can help kids explore new concepts and principles and expose them to real-world applications. This could seem overwhelming, but the low-prep STEM labs in this bundle facilitate STEM learning using simple low-cost materials and fun activities! They spark creativity and challenge students to imagine, plan, build, test, and revise!
