2. Powerpoint Slides
(Those forced school presentation skills will finally come in handy!)
This is the meat of your lesson. Use a lot of pictures and discussion questions. The students love to get involved.

3. Worksheet
This helps the kids remember vocabulary you taught them.
Try fill-in-the-blank questions or even a wordsearch (remember how much you loved those?)

Lesson Plans
Fun. Informative. Interactive.
That's the Goal.
There are 4 parts to every lesson plan.
Go solo or grab a friend and make a lesson for any STEM subject you like.
Come to a meeting and tell us about your ideas. We may have input!
When you're done, send us your lesson so that we can look over it.
4. Instruction Sheet
Your co-teachers need a little guidance too ;)
Just let us know what you want to do 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc throughout the session. It doesn't have to be super detailed. We'll help you with it.
