TEKS-Aligned

100% alignment is the cornerstone of what we do. To ensure our material meets the needs and uniqueness of Texas, we write STEM science curriculum from the ground up to be fully TEKS and ELPS-aligned.

5E + IA Instructional Model

STEMscopes pedagogy is rooted in Bybee’s 5E model, Gardner’s theory of Multiple Intelligences, and the flipped classroom where students learn by doing and experiencing rather than passively observing.

What’s the 5e+ia model?

Engaging, Real-world Connections

Students learn best through hands-on experiences with experiments, exploration of ideas, interpretation of what they observe, and their ability to relate scientific concepts to the real world. STEMscopes Science™ creates a student-centric, STEM learning environment where students actually get to do science.

SEAMLESS AND FRIENDLY INTERFACE

With your feedback, we’ve streamlined our interface, added a beginning digital user student version, and made functionalities like annotations, highlighting, and assigning even easier to use.

STEMSCOPES SCIENCE™ RAISES STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT

How do we know that our science curriculum works? The proof is in the data.

Our research studies show that using STEMscopes results in a higher number of students who meet or exceed science proficiency benchmarks on state assessments. Having access to high-quality K-12 curriculum not only helps improve U.S. students’ science proficiency levels, but addresses our country’s critical need for students to pursue careers in STEM.

WHAT TEACHERS ARE SAYING

“Being a first-year teacher, I love having everything you need at the access of your computer to complete a lesson plan. From vocabulary, to video with worksheets in not only English, but also in Spanish, as well as extended activities. I love having the hands-on components that include a supply list as well as a quick how-to video on those hands on activities.”

Amber Moenning Teacher

Crockett Elementary, Wichita Falls ISD, Texas

“STEMscopes allows me to focus on students doing science, not just reading about science. The annual student subscription is reasonable and suggests materials that are inexpensive and easy to find, making hands-on science affordable for a small school with a limited science budget.”

Angelin Petit Middle School Science Teacher

Sacred Heart Catholic School, Archdiocese of St. Paul & Minneapolis, Minnesota

“We appreciate the number of lessons and activities that are available in STEMscopes and the flexible ways in which they can be used,” said Weber. “What’s most attractive to our teachers is that they have the ability to use STEMscopes as they see fit, so they can continue to deliver the highest quality instruction and help every learner achieve at the highest levels.”

Chris Weber, Ed.D Director of STEM

Irvine USD, California

“When a new curriculum gets adopted, teachers worry that they’ll need a lot of professional development and that they’ll have to spend hours planning to implement it. They didn’t do that with STEMscopes. They jumped in really quickly. STEMscopes is very intuitive and simple to use.”

Cyndi Ganfield Principal

Aumsville Elementary, Cascade School District, Oregon

“Because we’ve been using STEMscopes for a few years now, our students are better prepared in science at each subsequent grade level. Our middle school teachers say that students are arriving with a stronger foundation in science than they did a few years ago. They also have a better understanding of what’s expected of them, which is moving the learning process forward much quicker.”

Don E. Cowart II Director of Curriculum, Instruction and Assessment

Coventry Public Schools, Rhode Island

“STEMscopes has benefited my students and me tremendously. Its practice has encouraged my students to further investigate into the areas of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics as a whole. Its curriculum and experiments/activities are readily accessible, easy to use, and educationally comprehensive. I couldn’t be happier with STEMscopes!”

Elizabeth Dennis Fifth Grade Teacher

Centro Mater East II, Miami Dade County, Florida

“STEMscopes takes the guesswork out of teaching the NGSS. While many resources claim to be NGSS-aligned, they rely heavily on reading and writing about science rather than doing science. STEMscopes is the only resource I’ve seen that’s aligned to meet all of the Next Generation Science Standards. It supports our vision for student-centered learning and follows all the best practices we want to see in our science classrooms.”

Jodi Marchesso STEM Curriculum Coach

Pasadena USD, California

“STEMscopes is great. Until we began using STEMscopes, students didn’t understand that science is everywhere. In kindergarten through fourth grade, they thought science was a book. They didn’t see science as being connected to the real world, so they thought that when they left school they’d never use it again. Now they realize science is everyday life.”

Karen Silensky Fifth Grade Teacher

Horizon Elementary, Broward County Public Schools, Florida
