Growing Plants
The beginning of the year is a great time to review the basics of setting up experiments. The most important (and often most difficult) part of a scientific experiment is to ensure a fair test or a controlled experiment. In a fair test, the only factor that changes is the variable under investigation.
The Growing Plants Gizmo is a fun way to introduce fair tests to students in elementary and middle grades. (The Gizmo could even be used as a quick review for high school students!) In the Gizmo, students can vary the type of seed, amount of light, amount of water, and type of soil. To test the effect of each variable on plant growth, students can set up four pots of seeds. The way the Gizmo is set up will naturally lead students to vary one factor at a time to isolate each effect. This will provide students with a solid foundation in the scientific method that will benefit them throughout the year.

Bring science to life with real-life STEM cases.
Gizmos STEM Cases put students in the roles of professionals tasked with solving real-world STEM problems — just like real scientists.

Everybody's Talking About Gizmos
"Using Gizmos has had a positive impact on student learning. Gizmos allows them to dig deeper and manipulate variables to lead them to a higher-level depth of knowledge. There were plenty of students who had a ‘light bulb’ moment using a Gizmo!"
- Teacher, Racine Unified School District, WI"Textbooks have come and gone in our district at all grade levels, but what our teachers have been able to rely on for years is the quality of the product ExploreLearning is putting out with Gizmos."
- Director of STEM Education, Hillsborough Public Schools, FL"Teachers deserve a tool like Gizmos to empower students to conduct their own investigations, learn without reading lots of text but by doing lots of reasoning."
- Teacher, Los Angeles Unified School District, CA“我真的是一个强大的支持者scienc的小玩意e because I have seen firsthand what it does in terms of engaging kids in labs. Gizmos really allow students to go deeper in terms of problem solving and critical thinking."
- Assistant Superintendent, Miami-Dade Public Schools, FL"I see more student engagement with lesson content when students are using Gizmos. Student grades have shown more understanding of the topics."
- Teacher, Salinas Unified School District, CAGizmos have earned every major ed tech award!
