We strive to align our programs to educational science standards whenever possible. We are also happy to work directly with teachers to make any of our demonstrations meet their specific curriculum needs.
The following list shows how each of our standard interactive Demonstration Shows correlate with the 2020 Colorado Academic Standards for Science for preschool, elementary and middle school grades. Each link will take you directly to that standard on the Colorado Department of Education website, and the numbers following the links refer to the specific sub-heading items for each standard.
