Moon Phase Lab (VR Option)
I'm very excited to share this NGSS/NYSSLS aligned Moon Phase lab/learning experience with you. It is definitely something I will build on over time, but it's worked very well and I am definitely open to suggestions on how to make more of these VR experiences for you to love as much as I love making them.This lab has several components:1. An optional VR portion where students look around as an observer on Earth and draw in the moon phases. This is a great opportunity to talk about the angle of

Natural Disasters - Jello Earthquake Engineering STEM Challenge
Earthquake Engineering Challenge Engineers face the challenge of designing more robust buildings to withstand natural disasters, including tornadoes, hurricanes, tsunamis, landslides, and earthquakes. “Earthquake-safe” buildings are intended to “bend and move” with the motion of earthquakes, instead of cracking and breaking under pressure. Your challenge is to construct an earthquake-proof structure in 20 minutes using 50 toothpicks and 50 mini-marshmallows that will withstand an “earthquake” in

A free resource you can use to talk to (and show) your students about camouflage! Students can find a spot around the room that they would like to hide their moth, and must try to match the color and pattern to blend in. Then they can write a clue to help other students find their moth (and to keep track of how many moths are hidden).Included are two pages of different difficulties. One moth has many more segment lines, making it harder to camouflage.Recommended Introduction Video on Peppered Mo
