Moon Phases Lab & Lesson: Learning the Moon Phases & Patterns
This lab begins with a great introduction to teaching moon phases because it allows students to visually observe the changing phases of the moon as a result of the relative positions of the Earth, Sun, and Moon. Give your students this amazing EXPERIENCE that they will not forget. Don't just read about it or teach it, but let your students SEE for themselves! By the end of Day 1, students should understand why/how we have moon phases and should be able to predict the next phase in a sequence.Ma

Symmetry Light Energy Lab Activity Create a Symmetrical Design PRINT and DIGITAL
In this STEAM science lab experiment, students create a symmetrical design using a window as a light box for tracing. In the process, they'll learn about symmetry and how light boxes work (sunlight shines through translucent paper and casts shadows because of the opaque ink markings). This activity is the perfect way to blend math (geometry) and science (light energy) with art and design!

Geodesic Dome Design and Evaluation with Jelly Beans and Toothpicks
A three page lab for building a geodesic dome using jelly beans and toothpicks. This lab can be adapted to use other materials: marshmallows, gum drops, etc. as a homework project. There is a "re-mix" sheet to use for this purpose. One lab page is for construction of a dome by different student groups and one lab page is for the evaluation of the other domes created by the student groups.

Cone Zone: A Comprehensive S.T.E.A.M. Activity
Students will design a cone-shaped descent chute for a planetary landing craft to optimize stability and minimize speed in this engaging lesson. This activity lends itself to student scientists of many ages. Young learners will benefit from simply creating the cones and testing their effectiveness. Older students can use spreadsheets that they create to analyze the data on a much more sophisticated level.

Digital Geography Atlas with Google Maps
Many social studies teachers start their year with teaching or reviewing geography through Powerpoints and activities in which students read and draw maps. Shortly after teachers move on to other important information and geography falls by the wayside of instruction. Technological alternatives to the standard text based map reading can make geography a constructive tool that learners can utilize throughout the year.

Air Pressure IV: The BIG Can Crush | Demonstration of Area, Volume & PSI
My former administrator has a saying that I try to implement as often as I can. “Think Big. Now, Think Bigger”. With that in mind, I have tweaked this impressive, old experiment and implemented connections to math for use in your science/math classroom. You will explore area, volume, air pressure, and surface area in this air pressure demonstration.
If you have tried the can crusher (Air Pressure I), this is a take-off on that experiment, but it ratchets it up a bit.
