Introducing the new hands-on elementary science program that helps students think and act like real scientists. Created by our team of teacher-writers and subject experts, PhD Science® is an innovative curriculum that inspires students to wonder about the world and empowers them to make sense of it.
New scholastic standards have shifted classrooms toward inquiry-driven instruction. This means teachers are now facilitators, guiding lessons in which students help make sense of compelling phenomena. As a result, educators have less time to piece together cohesive lessons of their own. Enter PhD Science, a coherent curriculum designed for shifting educational standards that provides in-context support with every lesson.
“One of the most rewarding things I see is that all students excel,” Susan Warren, an Owensboro, Kentucky, pilot teacher, remarked when asked about PhD Science in her classroom. With this curriculum, students in more than 1,000 classrooms nationwide are building knowledge to explain compelling authentic phenomena. They make observations, ask questions, participate in discussions, design and conduct investigations, and practice modeling.
The PhD Science Teacher Resource Pack is a selection of free materials and tools, including the Implementation Guide, Family Tip Sheets, Instructional Supports, and Materials Lists.
