Welcome, educators!

The Academy is excited to offer lessons on water, climate, evolution, biodiversity and extinction for students in grades kindergarten through 12. We have included some of our most recent research with video segments in most lesson plans. Check back regularly to find updated science information for you and your students!

Teachers, these lessons can enhance your classroom curriculum with activities and videos that you can share with your students, and all lessons follow Pennsylvania Academic State Standards and Next Generation Science Standards.

Parents may also use these lessons to inspire activities with your kids. We encourage you to explore more possibilities on our Science From Home page.

Science never stops at the Academy — learn more about how these resources align with the Academy’s key science components of water quality, climate science, evolution and biodiversity and extinction.
