ScienceOur first Mystery Science Unit, will teach us how scientists work. Mystery Science has interactive, engaging lessons. Mystery Science helps our students investigate, their natural curiosity will develop into a scientific perspective on the world. This ability to think scientifically is fundamental to any career or subject a child chooses to pursue as an adult. It's the ability to look at a question or problem, systematically investigate and collect evidence, and come to an independent conclusion.
