The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) are K–12 academic standards that set the expectations for what students should be able to do by certain grade levels. It was developed by 26 U.S. states, the National Science Teaching Association and other organizations. NGSS and adaptations of it are used in about 40 states.

The National Science Teaching Association (NSTA) is the world's largest organization dedicated to promoting excellence in teaching science. NSTA works with us to select topics of our videos as well as reviews scripts for accuracy, clarity, and alignment to NGSS DCIs. They also approve videos before we release them. Working with NSTA allows us to maximize the effectiveness of the lessons.

The password is used to login. The PIN you create during checkout is used to make administrative changes to the account. This prevents students from accidentally making changes like upgrading or downgrading your subscription or changing your username to something silly.

A classroom account is for access on 1 device at a time, such as a computer, tablet or phone. That is ideal for one teacher who can use it in front of the class. It also includes ability to send out student links that can be accessed by up to 35 students. Students clicking the student link do not need to login and do not need an account.

A school account gives ALL teachers and ALL students access on an unlimited number of devices.

Yes. We make this available to subscribers on the manage account page (click on the gear icon, top right corner). You can access this page after subscribing.

We do not because you already have most of them. Our DIY activities were designed to be done with common materials like paper, bottles, soap, baking soda, water, etc. 95% of the materials are like this. There are a few that can be found at a grocery store or online for a few dollars. The DIY activities are optional so it is best to see which ones your kids want to do first.

Our K-8 content is made with the appropriate depth for that age group. With that being said, many high school teachers use our 6-8 content as a foundational review at the beginning of their units. For example, to learn about stoichiometry, a review on chemical reactions and the law of conversation of matter could be helpful (we cover both of those videos at a 6-8 level), or to dive deeper into evolution, a review of genes & mutation, comparative anatomy, the fossil record and natural selection can help (we cover all of those at the 6-8 level). Other foundational topics include newton's laws of motion, rock layers (geologic time), etc.

100% of our videos have subtitles in Spanish. Simply click the "CC" button on the video player bar and select Spanish. Currently all written materials are in English.
