Sixth graders investigate the forces that move certain objects.  For this physics lesson, 6th graders design and create paper flying objects using origami methods, which they practice flying in different conditions.  Students...

Students dissamble and analyze the spring system of a click pen. They analyze a cross-section worksheet, dissamble the pens, fill in the missing parts of the cross-section diagram, and write a description of how the pen works.

Students use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve problems. In this geometry lesson, students identify the properties of a right triangle. They find the missing side and angles of a right triangle.

Students count from 0-99 using the binary number system. In this algebra lesson, students problem solve by working with faulty circuits and applying their knowledge f Binary Numbers. They work in team to create a solution.

Students solve problems with triangles. In this geometry lesson plan, students analyze shapes to find different triangles. They name the shapes created by putting triangles together.

Students use a purchased kit to build a solar powered car. They connect a solar photovoltaic panel to a motor which runs the car forward and backward. They determine how to wire the car to move in both directions.
