Science Starters

Science Starters are highly visual, digital science lessons that target the disciplinary core ideas of science. Each Science Starter breaks the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for science into manageable, bite-sized instruction that will strengthen any existing curriculum.  

Teacher-friendly programs are available for Elementary School (grades 3-5), Middle School (grades 6-8), Biology and Chemistry, and all come with built-in professional development. Each program contains over 100 digital lessons and loads of teacher printables, providing the visual instruction, review, and remediation necessary for success on STAAR and EOC assessments.

With just a computer and projector, teachers can use the Science Starters for whole-class instruction and end-of-course review. Students can use them for individual study on any device that has internet access. The versatile Science Starters are also ideal for afterschool programs, tutorials, home study, bilingual instruction, RTI, and pull-out programs.

Science Starters allow teachers to vertically and horizontally align science instruction and emphasize the 5E model. Thousands of images and vocabulary words assist students with language gaps and barriers, especially ELLS and struggling subpopulations. Science Starters are proven to produce results! You can explore sample modules below. Be sure to check out the interactive elaborate and evaluate tabs in the secondary modules.
