TCI classrooms are active, fun, and immersive spaces where students confidently question and explore the world as scientists do.
TCI’s science curriculum includes hands-on investigations, materials kits, and print and online science textbooks. With it, teachers of every grade level can Bring Science Alive! in their classrooms.
TCI’s Bring Science Alive! programs are designed to meet the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Each unit is driven by a unique storyline that introduces an anchoring phenomenon that ties into the performance expectations.
From intriguing phenomena that get students asking questions to robust hands-on investigations, TCI’s programs make NGSS come alive.
Explore different facets of the anchoring phenomenon with hands-on investigations. Our lessons are easily modified based on your schedule and students’ needs.
Today’s classrooms demand flexible lesson options. From hands-on investigations to simulations to video-driven activities, TCI’s NGSS-aligned science programs include flexible lesson options so that you can engage all learners, no matter your schedule.

Our students are more excited and engaged in science since we adopted TCI. Teachers appreciate that TCI incorporates the Next Generation Science Standards into their lessons and has options for science instruction, especially during distance learning.
I use TCI Science in all of my science classes (6th, 7th, and 8th), but one of my most recent success stories is how easy the TCI slideshows make labs, like my recent 7th-grade frog dissection. Being able to show the video tutorial on how to dissect the frog made the entire lesson run smoothly and without stress—thank you SO much, TCI!
I loved using TCI in my 5th-grade science class this year! The lesson investigations and experiments were engaging and fun for both the students and me. The students particularly loved the investigation where they dissect owl pellets. I get to watch science ignite their curiosity for learning as it helped them overcome their worries about touching something gross. Science wins each week as we look forward to each lesson and the new discoveries we get to make through these investigations!
