Put the events in the correct sequence and have Olive, the Reindeer (BeeBot) travel through the story. Can you create a maze for Olive and the other reindeer to help Santa deliver Christmas presents?

Students will use distance and perimeter on the coordinate plane to determine which fence company offers the best price for fencing a yard.

Students will plan and design a rocket that will travel the greatest distance. Students will consider what they know about rockets, energy, lengths and distances while using a budget to build their rockets.

This will force a copy of a simple implementation tracker form that you can edit and use as you begin to roll out activities in your district.

Project Summary
In this lesson students will learn about electromagnetic energy through a female engineer who invented frequency hopping that is used by so many devices we use daily. Students will explore and solve a real world problem by designing a device to block or build a stronger Wi-Fi signals. Each team will record their work with Flip.
Driving Questions / Scenario (what are we trying to solve or improve?)

What is the electromagnetic spectrum?
Which part of the electromagnetic spectrum does Wi-Fi use?
What materials do you think will block a Wi-Fi signal? What materials do you think will let a Wi-Fi signal pass through?

Standard(s) Addressed

Sc- - 6.P.1 Understand the properties of waves and the wavelike property of energy in earthquakes, light and sound. 6.P.3 Understand characteristics of energy transfer and interactions of matter and energy.
ISTE - 1.1.b, 1.2.b, 1.3.d, 1.4.a-d, 1.5.b, 1.6.d,1.7.d, 1.7.c

In this lesson, students use their knowledge of sound energy to create a soundproof box to protect a secret code word! Students measure and graph decibels to determine how well their boxes omit sounds!

After a long three day weekend, STEM Lake is flooded with trash! With your team, engineer a device that can collect the trash from STEM Lake with Sphero.

Students are presented with a water accident involving a plane. They learn how water rescue teams operate in real life scenarios, and then must engineer a device for their Sphero to carry through a pool to the “disaster site”.

In this lesson students create large story maps to retell and familiar text. Students record themselves and place QR codes along the story map. Students then code Sphero Robots, dressed as main characters, to make their way through each part of the story.

Students design a house built for a family of 5 via Habitat for Humanity. The house must include bedrooms, bathroom(s), a kitchen, and living room for a budget then pitch finished house plans to the Habitat for Humanity executive board.
