Using the new Quests, students explore real-life STEM issues through hands-on, investigative, and collaborative activities. STEM activities embedded throughout the program promote higher-order, critical-thinking skills with proven results.
Teacher-directed science inquiry leads to open inquiry in every lesson. Scaffolded instruction within Interactive Science includes models, prompts, and think-alouds to challenge learners to become independent.
