MYP NGSS Unit plan sustainable housing
This is a unit plan for the IB MYP based on sustainable housing that also relates the NGSS and how that can be taught / covered at the same time as teaching this unit.
Students will use research to help them formulate design ideas, which will culminate in a design for a sustainable home (created as a 3D model using software of their choice). A successful final product requires a 3D walkthrough for the client to visualise and understand how the final design works. What features and deisgn considerations make this a sustainable home? Consider broadly all possible aspects of this endeavour, the sourcing of environmentally materials from sustainable sources, consider the market for this house and why people would buy it rather than a traditionally built home? Why are these commercially viable? What other considerations must we make? (Criteria A, B, C & D)
This unit also helps introduce the GRASPS technique to conduct assessments and students to grapple with almost any assessment that comes to them.

IB MYP Unit Planner - Food and Energy - MYP 2 & 3
This is an IB MYP - Food and energy related unit - which is ideal for relating biology and chemistry in a holistic way by considering the concepts of food and energy. This unit relates food as energy, endo- and exothermic reactions, kinetic energy, growth, a balanced diet and dietary deficiencies.
It an overview for a unit that should run for approximately 18 lessons (assuming 2 lessons a week).
If instead you are looking for an MYP unit planner which is for young students in MYP and would be an ideal first unit for their science, then consider: Nature of Science - introductory unit plan.
If rather for younger students you want to integrate both mathematics and STEM, then you might consider: MYP Artifical limb unit.
For older MYP students, then I would suggest The NGSS related - Zero impact (sustainable housing) or for an Interdisciplinary unit - the Electricity / lightning MYP STEM IDU.

What matters is... - MYP unit plan (highly detailed)
This is an IB MYP Unit plan - What matters is … - which is ideal for students relating Science, mathematics and chemical concepts. This unit engages students with the concept of an atom, what is the periodic table, how else could the periodic table be represented? solutions, solutes and solvents and a great deal more in a broad conceptual understanding. It contains many, many resource links suggested for this unit and makes clear a set of points that students should know, understand and be able to do by the end of the unit. It also has some clear and interactive formative assessments and summative assessments.
This unit is heavily detailed and ideal for something that is truly prepared to use in the classroom. It is an overview for a unit that should run for approximately 6 weeks (assuming 3 lessons a week).
If instead you are looking for an MYP unit planner that is for science and is for biology, then the characteristics of life and body systems unit plan would be suitable. For astronomy / astrophysics, then the planet unknown unit plan would be suitable. If instead, you are seeking a mathematics unit plan and is based on measurement and related concepts, then consider the mathematical vision unit plan or for geometry and artworks, try the Art of Mathematics unit plan or finally for fractions, decimals and percentages and lots of other mathematics, try the Problem with Money unit plan. For science and young students in MYP and which would be an ideal first unit, then consider: Nature of Science - introductory unit plan. For around the same age group - for MYP 2 / 3 an alternative IB MPY unit planner would be: the Food and Energy unit planner of the Growth unit planner.
If rather for younger students you want to integrate both mathematics and STEM, then you might consider: MYP Artifical limb unit.
For older MYP students, then I would suggest The NGSS related - Zero impact (sustainable housing) or for an Interdisciplinary unit - the Electricity / lightning MYP STEM IDU.
