Finding elementary science curricula that is directly aligned to Ohio’s Science Learning Standards is challenging. Many published curricula say they are aligned to the Ohio standards but they still include topics and information that does not directly align. This leaves teachers to filter and make decisions about what to teach and what not to teach!

Ohio Science Explorers has been developed by an Ohio science educator FOR Ohio teachers. All the lessons and activities in this curriculum are directly aligned to the Ohio grade level standards for science. There is no deciding what not to teach.
