Mars Landing Module STEM Challenge (Egg Drop) - Middle or High School Physics
This is a multi-step, usually multi-week Engineering Project that I did in 8th grade physics class for many years, and it was ALWAYS super fun and a highlight of the year. It accompanies a Physics Unit on Mass, Forces, Gravity, and KE & PE Energy, and is best to incorporate project into a 4-6 week unit. It can easily be adapted for grades 6-12, varying the concepts of physics that are expected to be demonstrated.The students design a "landing module" to theoretically land on Mars, while succ

Teaching Area Formulas: Making Geometry Make Sense
Students will move through a seamless transition from finding the areas of squares to rectangles, parallelograms, triangles, and trapezoids.. The area formula for each polygon will build upon those they have already learned ensuring more retention and understanding of the formulas.Then they will apply these formulas to find the areas of complex shapes — the areas of states — as they apply their skills to problem-solving situations.
Math Measurement Project (Design an Amusement Park)
In this real-life math project students will design an amusement park. Students are asked to use formulas for calculating various shapes to design rides, food trucks, ect. Students will need large pieces of graph paper for their layout. They will also be asked to determine various calculations for each item in the amusement park. Lastly, they will write a review or advertisement about their park. Super fun project!
