Science Detectives
TEKS-aligned science investigations from light and shadows in Kindergarten through conservation of mass in Grade 8. Each grade includes a featured breakout, ten concept activities, a STEM challenge, and teacher supports.
Open Science Detectives →CER & ACE Case Files
Hands-on evidence packets in matter, energy, magnetism, and conductivity. One reasoning routine, a Page 1 investigation, and your choice of a CER or ACE response page — plus a teacher guide and editable PowerPoint decks.
Open CER & ACE Case Files →Lab Safety Certification
TEKS-aligned science lab-safety activities — rules of the room, PPE, emergency equipment, hazard symbols, Safety Data Sheets, GHS pictograms, chemical compatibility, and procedure critique. Students pass mastery checks to earn a printable Ranger or Specialist badge.
Start lab safety →SST Activities
Getting ready for the Student Success Tool, which replaces STAAR in 2027–2028. A plain-language roadmap with the four draft TEKS maps, ACE the SST entry and exit tickets for elementary science, and Break It, Build It word-part activities for the vocabulary that blocks students.

Critical Thinking Breakouts
The CTOB library — self-contained reasoning escapes where students open clues, weigh evidence, and crack the locks. Includes the CLEAR system, Fourth of July, July 5 & Black Freedom Holidays, Bible as Literature, Science, and Idioms, plus a searchable catalog.
Open the breakout library →Bible as Literature
Academic, nondevotional study of adopted Bible texts through story, history, genre, theme, archetype, and allusion. Students open clues, weigh evidence, distinguish text from belief, and crack the locks.
Open Bible as Literature →Digital Math Tools
A searchable library of self-contained, browser-based math tools — number lines, manipulatives, counting, shapes, measurement, and sorting. The PreKindergarten & Kindergarten collection is available now; grades K–2, 3–5, 6–8, and 9–12 are on the way. Works offline; no logins, no data collected.
Open the math tools →Curiosity Challenge
Timely topics, each with five short, curiosity-first challenges teachers can use immediately — guess, sort, spot, explain, extend. Browser-based and printable, with teacher answer keys and sourced facts. October packs: World Space Week, Nobel Prize, and Día de los Muertos.

Getting to Know You
A back-to-school worksheet collection for building classroom community — icebreakers and “all about me” activities across ELA, math, science, social studies, and fine arts, with printable PDFs. Aligned to the TEKS.
Open the worksheets →Problem-Solving Teaching
Problem-Based Learning units for the Texas history and social-studies classroom — real, ill-structured problems students work as stakeholders, built deliberately from surface to deep to transfer learning. Aligned to the social studies TEKS.
Open the PBL units →Relic Rooms
Investigation activities where students examine nine mystery exhibits in three steps — identify, understand, connect. Aligned to the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills.
Enter the relic rooms →Digital Citizenship Breakouts
Breakout-style activities on being safe, kind, and responsible online — privacy, digital footprints, media balance, and standing up to unkindness — for the elementary and middle-grades classroom.
Open digital citizenship →Gen AI Literacy Breakouts
Breakout-style activities that build a grounded understanding of generative AI — how it works, where it errs, and how to use it thoughtfully and ethically — for younger learners.
Open AI literacy →Say It, Make It
106 STEAM barrier & communication activities — one partner describes a hidden model, drawing, pattern, or setup in words only; the other builds it, then they compare. Filterable by STEAM strand, print-friendly, TEKS + NGSS aligned.
Open Say It, Make It →📚 Middle & high school · Grades 6–12
PlotPoint
A literature learning arcade where students investigate artifacts, crack evidence-based breakouts, play literary games, analyze acclaimed texts, and explain their thinking through the ACE Framework.
Open PlotPoint →Contraband
Banned and challenged books turned into rigorous, standards-aligned learning rooms — vocabulary, evidence investigation, close-reading analysis, and discussion. Built on the PlotPoint engine, with a free public-domain sample room and print-ready ACE posters for every title. The response to “you can't read this” becomes “let's read it closely.”
Open Contraband →Suffrage Sojourn
A no-combat history journey through five turning points in the long movement for voting rights. Students gather primary-source evidence at each stop, meet a civic challenge, keep a student journal, and build an evidence-backed case for why 1920 was a milestone rather than an ending.
Begin the journey →History Event Maps
24 reusable one-page graphic organizers for the social-studies classroom — organizers, not lessons. Pick a map that matches the thinking you want (chronology, cause and effect, perspective, turning points, evidence, continuity & change), print it, and students fill it in from whatever event you are already teaching. Eight maps per grade band, printable grayscale PDFs, TEKS skill-aligned.
