“I used to be a little apprehensive about teaching science because I never felt like I had the right tools to catch my students’ attention in a way that they would be able to understand the material. Now that I have used Science4us, I know just how excited they are to watch the catchy videos, play the interactive games, and explore all of the activities on the site. It makes it fun to teach science skills. Overall, my students seem more excited to do science activities. They ask me all the time if they can watch the video segments over again.”

“It is clear the addition of Frax to my day-to-day instruction significantly impacted my students’ scores. They loved Frax and now LOVE fractions. Interim testing data showed students did very well on topic tests that included fractional reasoning. Then, EOY FAST assessment data showed my classes demonstrated 77% proficiency in fractional reasoning—29% points above the school average!”

“I found Gizmos to be incredibly important on our state assessments. If you cannot collect data, look at a chart with data, or make a conclusion based on that data you will not do very well. Last year 80% of my students tested proficient or advanced in science. Gizmos is what pushes us over the top.”

“Awesome, awesome, awesome! Reflex is by far the best program out there. All but one of my students scored within the targeted norm range on our district calculations assessment. This was an increase from 50% on the fall assessment.”

“Using Gizmos has had a positive impact it had on student learning. Gizmos allows them to dig deeper and manipulate variables to lead them to a higher-level depth of knowledge. There were plenty of students who had a ‘light bulb’ moment using a Gizmo!”

“With Gizmos STEM Cases I love how the students can input their data, then go and look at the graph and interpret the data. It’s a great way for them to learn through inquiry and as a hands-on lab.”

“Dear Awesome People of Reflex: I just wanted to say thank you for all the math stuff you did for my class. My favorite game is: all of the games. Thanks again for making me stronger and how much fun you made me have.”

“One of my students has really taken off in math because of knowing his math facts better. He can focus on learning the actual concepts, instead of spinning his wheels because of not knowing the facts. He is now a math superstar!”
- Reflex Teacher, Granite School District, UT
“One student used to cry every time she got a math assignment. Now she proudly answers fact fluency questions as if she never struggled at all, while also recognizing that she has gained so much math knowledge in the last few months with Reflex.”

“I use Frax in my classes. On our mid-year screener, my students outperformed the other 3rd grade classes that don’t use Frax. My two classes’ average point increase was double that of the other five classes.”
