Scratch Maze Video Game Coding Unit
This is one of my favorite coding units I use in my 5th-grade STEM classroom. I think it is appropriate anywhere from 3rd-9th grade depending on students' coding skills and background. My vision with this resource is that it gives teachers and students the right amount of skills to be successful in coding and designing their own Scratch video game maze while it not being a "copy and paste" activity where they don't really know how or why the code is working. Students will have to think through t

Space Dive Documentary Mini-Unit
Watching movies in class always seemed like a waste of time to me. I rarely even left movies for substitutes to show.
This Space Dive documentary is the exception to my own self-imposed no-videos-in-my-science-class rule. Reliving Felix Baumgartner’s Space Dive (which was sponsored by Red Bull in 2012) was one of my favorite things to do each year. I love the storylines, the intensity, and the opportunity to discuss how STEMM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics – and marketing) wo

Engineering Design Challenge
The engineering design challenge utilizes the steps of the scientific method combined with the engineering design loop to solve a problem. The benefit of using both processes together is that students get the best of a controlled investigative process using the scientific method and the creativity that can come from the engineering design process. Students and their team will be presented with a problem that they will use to focus their work around for this project. Teams will take time to ident

Walls STEM Challenge
Walls… they’re everywhere we look, but have you really thought about them? What holds a wall
together? What makes a wall stand without falling? How is a wall created?
In our STEM unit, “WALLS: What Goes Up, MIGHT Come Down!” we will explore Materials Engineering — if you want to build something, the right materials matter! In this design challenge, students explore the properties of the earth materials, clay, sand, and soil, as they’re used in mortar mixtures. They will then use the knowl

SCIENCE: IMPULSE AND MOMENTUM
The momentum of an object is equal to the product of its mass and velocity.
In order to find the change the momentum of an object, we will need to calculate its impulse, which is the product of force and the time during which the force acts.
In this e-book, some vivid real life examples that tie the concept of impulse and momentum are given. These worked out physics problems will serve as a great guide for students and teachers. They are also intended to ignite the students towards adventures
