What makes us different? Everything We Do Relates to All Things STEM We don’t play favorites at — we love every aspect of STEM. Students deserve an education that reveals the wonders of science, technology, engineering, and math, and teachers should have all the tools they need to explore these subjects with their students. Blended learning is key to achieving these goals, so we offer almost all our content in digital, kit, and print. Science Our award-winning science curriculum immerses students in real-world phenomena through engaging lessons, interactive features, and high quality media, such as BBC Streaming. Tailored to your state standards, our curriculum brings science to life. Learn more Learn more Technology Turn screen time into learning time with STEMscopes Coding (powered by Bitbox)! STEMscopes Coding shows students how to build, customize, and share their own digital apps with typed JavaScript code. Students get a taste of life as a professional coder. Learn more Learn more Engineering Students love tinkering with toys, taking them apart and putting them back together. Dive-in Engineering fosters that curiosity by encouraging students to deconstruct, imitate, vary, explore real-world engineering problems, and then design their own solutions. Learn more Learn more Math Built on the 5E lesson model, STEMscopes Math shows students how math works in our everyday experiences. STEMscopes Math also provides the resources teachers need to promote meaningful learning that empowers their students with 21st-century skills for real-world application.

STRENGTH IN NUMBERS 50 STATES 3,500+ SCHOOL DISTRICTS 39,000+ SCHOOLS 9,000,000+ STUDENTS IN 2022 What teachers are saying 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 STEMscopes is a major motivator for our students. It helps them grasp concepts, build their critical thinking skills, and connect science to real-world situations.” Robin Butcher, Fifth Grade Teacher Horizon Elementary, Broward County Public Schools, Florida 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 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 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 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 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 The vertical alignment in STEMscopes has been a big benefit. It standardized science so everyone is now speaking the same language.” Bryan Dyer, Principal Cloverdale Elementary, Cascade, Oregon AWARDS News Schools Nationwide Raise Science Scores With Stemscopes Science Powered by May 8, 2024 Since 2013, nearly all 50 states have adopted the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) or similar standards to advance science education for all students. While average science scores have declined or remained unchanged in U.S. schools since 2015, districts and schools implementing STEMscopes Science have shown significant increases in the number of students passing their science standardized test. In 2023,...
