Paper Helicopter STEM Project: Gr 5-7 Scientific Method Mini Unit

Paper Helicopter STEM Project: Gr 5-7 Scientific Method Mini Unit
Science, Basic Science, Technology, Engineering, STEM, Grade 5, 6, 7, Activities

Here's a great science mini-unit for the start of the year to help your middle school or intermediate students learn about the scientific method, design, and independent variables in a fun and hands-on way! This is also a great project to complete before a science fair unit! How to Use: Print a booklet (double-sided) for each student with pages 2-9. Print a single page 10 for each student. o Types of Variables: Read through as a class, give students time to identify the mistake, and teach students the three types of variables. o Designing Experiments : Students can work in pairs or small groups to think of how they would design experiments for the following situations. Come back together and share as a class, then ensure students complete the bottom section on their own to assess comprehension. o Paper Helicopter STEM Activity: Carefully go through the instructions. Choose a date in a couple of weeks for Registration Day (students will need at least 3 hours of class time to test models). The class after that can be Finals Day. Next, students use their single sheet (p. 10) to make the initial design and test it several times to see how long it takes to fall. o Helicopter Logbook: Students make at least three new designs. Each time they should only change one variable from the previous design. So, they could first change the wing length. After that, they could change the type of paper, and finally, they could change the size of the model, etc. Each time they explain, predict, make the model, observe 3 trials, and reflect. o Registration Day: Once students have tested at least 3 designs and have their best one, they make a fresh template of that design to hand in. Finals Day: Students have 10 minutes to create their final helicopter from their template. Everyone tests three times, and the class winner can be determined! [Note: The best design usually ends up being a simple, tiny square of paper!] o Reflection: Students complete the three questions and put all their pages together to be marked out of 50.

Math in the Real World: Personal Math Research Project for STEM, Enrichment, or Early-Finishers
Math, Percentages, Decimals, Money, Fractions, Geometry, Measurements, STEM, Research, Grade 5, 6, 7, 8, Activities

Personal STEM Research Project: Each student chooses a topic of interest and answers a challenging math question about it after step-by-step mini lessons teach them how. This research project can be used in many ways: - As a whole class STEM unit with 7 mini-lessons (a great idea for Friday afternoons) - As a year/term-long project for early finishers (no more copying extra math worksheets for every single lesson!) - As an enrichment activity for a small group (for those students who are ready for an extra challenge) The unit takes students through the step-by-step process using an example (how much water is needed to fill an ice rink for the NHL). The 7 steps are: o Topic: Help your students choose a topic and then narrow it down. This way your students will be invested in this project because it is about something that interests them! o Question: Brainstorm questions about that topic that need math to be solved. Help guided your students to a question that will have more than one step to solve. o Skills: Practice/learn skills needed to answer the question. Your students can use math websites like IXL, youtube videos, or their textbook to learn/review skills. o Research: Complete research to find necessary information. Students will need to find science and technology information to answer many of their questions. o Math: Put the skills and research together to find the answer! o Present: Think of a creative way to present the solution to the class. o Reflect: Take time to think back on the process. Grades : This project works well for intermediate/middle school aged students in grades 5-8. It could also be used in a high school special education classroom with extra support.

STEM Project: Extreme Environment Technology Design & Persuasive Presentation
Science, Technology, Earth and Environmental Sciences, Environmental Science, Engineering, Earth Sciences, STEM, Grade 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, Activities

STEM Project: Extreme Environment Technology Design & Persuasive Presentation Here's a fun and exciting science project to help bring your extreme environment unit to life and incorporate some design and technology aspects too! Students brainstorm ideas and design a new or improved technology to help explore an extreme environment. Then they persuasively present their idea to the class! How to Use: Students (individually or in pairs) select an extreme environment like a volcano, arctic region, desert, deep sea or space. They envision a brand new or much improved technology that can ease exploration in such challenging conditions. Graphic Organizers: The package includes research graphic organizers to help students stay on track as they think about the challenges of exploring their selected environment, the existing exploration tools related to it, and what they could design to make exploration smoother. There is space for students to draw a detailed and labelled diagram of their invention. They can also make a prototype! Persuasive Presentation: The engagement extends further as students prepare persuasive presentations. With the aid of a brainstorming sheet and speech plan, each student will decide how to share their idea: PowerPoint slides, posters, models or pamphlet form. Audience Interaction & Voting System: On presentation day, peers watch presentations actively and vote for their favourite concepts using the provided voting slips. This cultivates critical analysis & decision-making skills among participants while maintaining a competitive yet learning-friendly environment. This resource aligns well with NGSS3-5-ETS1-1 standards as students tackle a simple design problem and consider materials, constraints, and implementation.

STEM Task: Falling Slowly Middle Grades Science Experiment

STEM Task: Falling Slowly Middle Grades Science Experiment
Science, Physics, STEM, Grade 4, 5, 6, 7, Activities

Here is a fun, low-prep science experiment for your middle grades class! It's perfect for a Friday afternoon, day before a holiday, or as part of your regular science curriculum . Students will have a chance to experiment with simple, everyday materials to learn about a science concept in a hands-on manner. They will have to make a prediction before completing the experiment and draw a detailed and labelled diagram after they are done. They will also define relevant vocabulary words and answer a question about what they learned. Falling Slowly: This deceptively simple task asks students to use a piece of paper to design an item that falls as slowly as possible when dropped from a height of 2m. They may be surprised to see that a tiny ripped piece of paper is often the best design! Discussions about gravity and the natural design of helicopter seeds could follow. Student Instructions: You must try to design a paper object that falls as slowly as possible when dropped from 2m. Fold, cut, tear your paper however you want. Test different designs. How to Use: Students can work in small groups. Go over the instructions and materials and give students time to predict before they start the experiment. Review the findings and relevant vocabulary after students have completed their experiment and diagram. Grades to Use With: This activity is great for middle grades (4-7) classrooms or high school special education classes. What's Included: One-page PDF handout with with material list, instructions, prediction, vocabulary or reflection, and room for a labelled diagram.
