Thermal Energy Lab "Total Meltdown"
Students in this activity will feast their “ice” on the importance of insulators, conductors and how they keeps cold matter cool and hot matter warm or vice versa. Children participating in this lab will learn about the correlation between the speed of an object’s molecules and that objects temperature while getting to test different types of insulation, designing, and constructing a container of their own that minimizes the transfer of thermal energy. This is a STEM activity! Key points: · Temp

Scratch Coding Teams Planner
This is a plan that I have previously given students to begin designing and creating a program using the Scratch coding program.
I will run an immersion lesson prior to giving out this plan were I will get students to explore a game in scratch and share with the class what important features make a game or animation interesting.
The students will then use this planning document to create their own animation, game or quiz that they can share at a gamescon event at the end of a term.

Table-top Mini Golf: STEAM Engineering and Design for Elementary GATE
In From Putt-putt to Pebble Beach--Table-top Mini Golf, students will design and construct a playable table-top sized miniature golf course using the engineering design process. With these lessons, the teacher defines the problem, helps students gather background research, and specifies the requirements. The students do the rest: creating alternative solutions, choosing the best solution, doing development work, building a prototype, and testing and redesigning. The result is a classroom filled

STEM Kid Engineering and Construction -- Hoop and Launcher Game GATE
Kid-built in a few hours . . . this 7 inch tall basketball hoop can be assembled and re-assembled. We’re not going to toss a ball to make baskets with this project. Oh, no . . . we are making a little catapult to launch marshmallows at the hoop! Oh, yes! Sweet!
Use this building project as a challenging independent study for upper elementary, as a whole-class engineering project, or use it to make math and science applications like percentages, measurements and geometry, action/reaction, tr

Da Vinci Parachute Prototypes -- Hands-on STEM
In this lesson, students solve geometry problems and learn background physics concepts as they build a working model of Leonardo Da Vinci’s parachute. Logic, critical thinking, a bit of Renaissance history, writing and supporting conclusions with details from a source—it’s all here too!
Make this extended lesson a cross-curricular, standards-based mini-unit, or just make it a cool building activity. Pick and choose the level of commitment right for you and your students. With the suggested e
