PHYSICAL SCIENCE-During this module, students observe the properties of five household substances--alum, salt, cornstarch, baking soda, and talcum powder--and investigate changes in the properties of those substances as they react with water, vinegar, red cabbage juice, and iodine. Because students often think of chemical reactions as "magic," this module helps students build an understanding that chemicals undergo predictable changes that can be controlled. The students use the processes of scientific inquiry, including fair testing (cont
Anchored Science by Mi-STAR is a comprehensive middle school science curriculum driven by a bold vision for the future, where science isn’t just a subject but a powerful, integrated body of knowledge that equips students to tackle today’s pressing societal challenges. This curriculum harnesses the full potential of the Next Generation Science Standards, empowering students to actively engage with science and engineering practices.

Level 5–6 is divided into three activity sections: algebra, proportional reasoning, and integer activities. Each section begins with an Anchor Activity followed by five or six further explorations and extensions that are connected in some way to the Anchor.
Adventures in Algebra focuses on describing patterns and relationships with symbols and evaluating expressions and equations. 
The OpenSciEd elementary science program aligns with all NGSS standards for elementary education.
