SEPUP UNITS
 

Looking for flexibility?

Although Issues and Earth Science (IAES), Issues and Life Science (IALS) and Issues and Physical Science (IAPS) were designed as full-year curriculum, we recognize that every school district is a little bit different. IAES, IALS and IAPS units can be easily mixed and matched to create a customized, integrated science program that is right for your district.

Also, if you’re looking for a replacement unit or issue oriented science activities to enhance your current curriculum, these are a great choice.

Look What Teachers
Are Saying...

The program puts the student in the role of being the scientist. They are led in a direction but, in the end, the students feel they got there on their own. Just the way the module was set up, kids ended up showing other kids their results. They saw their results as real and would argue from them. Kids who didn't get the expected results would repeat their procedures without prompting. Often, they found they made a procedural error or they didn't look close enough. Throughout the module they became comfortable with the language of chemistry. Without teaching formulas, they are ready for the next step. They rarely learned a science term without seeing or experiencing it themselves. With Solutions and Pollution, the incoming seventh graders started the year with real science. This set the tone for the entire year.
