Grab your hard hat and tool belt for this lesson, exploring engineering and computer science with the scientific method.

The students will complete a mixture of transformations on paper and then watch and complete GeoGeobra simulations of transformations to identify patterns and relationships.

Computer Abstraction seems to be a difficult concept along with Translating mRNA into Proteins. Why not use one to help explain the other and how important both are in our everyday life, and in living.  This lesson comes with a Slide Deck and a worksheet that will help students understand both topics and has options hands-on kits and extension activities to drive the points home.

Do you like to  troubleshoot and solve problems yourself?  This lesson will teach you to solve problems on your technology devices and to create cars by using troubleshooting and problem solving as well.

Problem solving can be so much fun when you are building cars!  Let’s learn to troubleshoot on our computers and use those skills to create a working, rolling, car!

We may not be jumping on the “Magic School Bus with Miss Frizzle” but thanks to the impact of technology in our classrooms, our students can use virtual glasses to expand the walls of our classroom.

We're going on a light hunt!  Students will be engaged in this hands-on light investigation, they will investigate how different materials are affected by light. Students will use their knowledge in computer science by sorting and organizing items based on one or two attributes. 

What do you think will happen to Peppermint Puffs that are put in warm water, cold water, oil, and vinegar?  Will they dissolve?  In which substance will they dissolve the fastest?  In this experiment, your students will find out!  Students will also record their data and use technology (a spreadsheet on their Chrome book) to analyze, graph and discuss their learning.

What materials dissolve in water?  How does water temperature affect this?  Your students will work in groups using a thermometer and timer to discover if salt, sugar, sand, and flour will dissolve best in hot or cold water.  Further, your class will learn to record and submit data on a Google form and create graphs.  This will allow you to have great class discussions to draw conclusions about the effect temperature has on dissolving matter. 

This media literacy explains how information travels the globe and how we can find out where it came from. Students will complete an end user guide to help navigate on the internet.
