“Frax & Reflex are unlike anything we've used before. They engage students instead of just throwing problems at them. They love the fast-paced games and enjoy moving up in levels.”
- Teacher, Bellevue Elementary School
“By having Science4Us, we can give them what they’re used to. They’re able to manipulate science virtually, it makes our job easier, and we’re helping them to retain the knowledge that we want them to learn”
- Teacher, Hillcrest Elementary School
“Science4Us keeps the students engaged and requires them to retell/summarize each topic.”
- Teacher, Polk County School District
“Science4Us encouraged me to teach science the way it should be taught. Using hands-on experiences, whether seat-based or computer-based. I looked forward to teaching using the Science4Us lessons because they were not as overly simplified as some textbook lessons can be.”
- Leaha Second Grade Teacher
“I have been teaching kindergarten for six years. We use Science4Us on a weekly basis when we have science class. The students love the activities presented on the website and get excited when it is their turn to log on. They like the sorting games more than anything else. If they are struggling in a particular area, I can assign them the activities that go along with that area. The best part of Science4Us is that my students really love science now and look forward to class.”
- Stacy Kindergarten Teacher
“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.”
- Mrs. Stewart First Grade Teacher
“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!”
- Frax Teacher, Miami-Dade County Public Schools, FL
“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.”
- Gizmos Teacher, Uinta School District, WY
“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.”
- Reflex Teacher, Stevens Point Area Public School District, WI
“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!”
