An introductory lesson on photosynthesis for 5th graders, focusing on how plants transform sunlight into energy using chloroplasts and chlorophyll. Students will explore the process through visual aids, vocabulary building, and informational reading.

A collection of resources for tracking student progress, celebrating achievements, and managing the robotics workspace. includes mission logs, certificates, and reference guides.

Explore Marty the Robot using two coding methods: physical color blocks for screenless movement and Scratch-like block coding for more complex behaviors and sensing.

Transition from screenless coding to block coding with Sphero Mini. Students will explore distance, rotation, and loops while programming their robot to complete various challenges in the Sphero Edu app.

Introduce students to screenless coding using Sphero indi and color tiles. This lesson focuses on cause-and-effect and simple sequencing as students lead indi through a series of color-coded missions.

An advanced physics-based engineering unit for grades 4-5. Students take on the role of 'Roller Coaster Tycoons' to design gravity-powered coasters and braking systems, emphasizing variable testing, energy transfer, and safety criteria.

An advanced disaster relief engineering unit for grades 4-5. Students design precision supply drop crates to protect medical gear and modular flood barrier systems to save a model town, emphasizing experimental variables and cost-to-performance criteria.

A high-energy junior engineering lesson for grades 1-3. Students join the 'Storm Rescue Team' to design unsinkable rafts for flood rescues and wind-resistant shelters for high-wind emergencies, focusing on material properties and modeling.
