Middle School/Upper Elementary Scientific Method and STEM Fair Unit
This unit was designed as a way to incorporate STEM into a more traditional Science Fair model with connections to STEM careers. Students are encouraged to choose a topic that they are deeply interested in and they learn how to connect scientific thinking to concepts outside of science class. They are also introduced to future STEM careers and community resources. The unit is directly aligned to Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and the Common Core.
In order to help students achieve t

Spring into Statistics Data Displays and Measures of Center Lab
This is a hands-on lab that teaches about Statistical Questions, Data Displays (dot/line plot, histograms, box plots) and Measures of Center (mean, median, mode, and range). The lab includes notes pages, examples with answer keys, and a final project in which the student can survey classmates and create a "flower" by using their data to find mean, median, mode, range. They will also create a box plot, histogram and dot plot.
Investigating the Spread of a Viral Outbreak
Students in grades 5 - 9 model the spread of an infectious disease under the entertaining theme of a zombie outbreak. One student unknowingly is patient zero and students simulate the spread of an airborne illness. This highly engaging activity covers health topics, nature of science, and math skills as students graph data in a line plot. Higher level students can be challenged to find the function of the exponential growth of the outbreak.

Skittle Radiometric Decay Half-life Lab
Did you know you can use Skittles candy to demonstrate absolute dating and radiometric decay! Buy a 1-4 lb bag at your local bulk warehouse store for savings. This lab is a great way to show how isotopes decay by shaking a plate full of random skittles. Students use Skittles to observe "Isotopes" decay over each half life. At the end of the lab (and only IF they have done all their work) they can enjoy their "daughter products". Skittles were used because they are durable, hypoallergenic, and th

To Thin or Not to Thin Experiment
In these lessons students will design and conduct an experiment to determine how thinning crops affect the yield. Students are split into groups which each are measuring a different variable about the radishes. There are 4 "lessons", but the data collection day is repeated at least 6 times, and is only one day a week. Each lesson has detailed lesson plans, list of materials, and examples of work from students. These lessons some of the best to get students to think like scientists. They were des
Measuring the Ooze of Zombie Blood
