Why it works for homeschooling
A real curriculum, not random worksheets
Lessons are organised Grade → Unit → Topic → Lesson across Biology, Chemistry and Physics, so you can follow a coherent sequence for Grades 6–10 instead of piecing resources together.
Mapped to NGSS, lesson by lesson
Every lesson lists the exact NGSS performance expectation it covers, with the Science & Engineering Practices, Disciplinary Core Ideas and Crosscutting Concepts spelled out — easy evidence for portfolios and state requirements.
Built for self-study
Each lesson runs a full inquiry cycle — engage, explore, explain, practise, investigate, reflect — with learning objectives up front, so a student can work through it without a parent teaching the content first.
Free, with no sign-up
Everything is free for everyone. No accounts, no paywall — progress, confidence ratings and reflections are stored privately in the student's own browser.
What's inside every lesson
Video + interactive simulation
A curated explainer video and a PhET interactive simulation with guiding questions turn abstract ideas into something students can manipulate.
Quizzes with feedback
Level 1–3 multiple-choice questions explain why a wrong answer is wrong, and level 4 open tasks come with model answers students can compare against.
Vocabulary and concept support
Key terms are defined in every lesson and collected in a searchable glossary, with tables and callouts that highlight common misconceptions.
How to use it at home
- 1
Pick a grade and branch
Open the lesson library and filter by grade (6–10) and science branch. Lessons within a unit build on each other, so work through them in order.
- 2
Follow the inquiry cycle
Start with the engage phenomenon, watch and explore, read the explanation, then practise. The investigation section gives a ready-to-run experiment or data task.
- 3
Check understanding, track progress
Finish with the quiz and reflection prompts. Completion and confidence are tracked automatically in the browser — open My Progress any time to see the picture.
Because the library also follows the IB MYP framework, each lesson names the MYP criterion (A–D) it develops — useful if your learner is in, or heading toward, an IB programme.
