With the LRHE curriculum, student learning is used in the generation of solutions to local problems, such as increasing indigenous populations of insects within local urban neighborhoods. The learning approach—solutioning—emphasizes learning life science content through the NGSS science and engineering practices.

This collection offers K-12 curricula, activity guides, and other resources to support hands-on, inquiry-based investigations of the ecosystems and organisms around us. Themes include: Hudson River ecology, urban ecosystems, schoolyard ecology, biodiversity, water and watersheds, and data exploration and nature of science. Additional resources are available for home and distance learning.

The Transition to Algebra (TTA) curriculum seeks to quickly give students the mathematical knowledge, skills, and confidence to succeed in a standard first-year algebra class and to show them that they can explore mathematics and actually enjoy it. TTA is a full-year algebra support curriculum that can run concurrently with first-year algebra. It is designed to build students' algebraic habits of mind as they explore algebraic logic puzzles that connect to and extend algebra course topics and learn broadly applicable tools and strategies to help them make sense of what they are learning in algebra. Students discuss and refine their ideas as they work through mental mathematics activities, written puzzles, spoken dialogues, and hands-on explorations that engage them in cultivating mathematical knowledge, intuition, and skills.

StoryMaker is a powerful learning platform developed by PBS NewsHour Student Reporting Labs to build the next generation of media creators through media-making projects. These lesson plans and activities provide a strong foundation of storytelling and journalism skills to help students gain confidence, find their voice, and discover their place in the world.

This NGSS-aligned place-based curriculum features experiential, field-based, inquiry-oriented K-12 learning activities that incorporate real-world applications integrating Hawaiian and 21st Century STEA²M. It includes atmospheric, biology, and geology lessons, as well as teacher-created Hawaiʻi and American Samoa lessons.

This series includes lessons and professional development video sessions focused on: multilingual learning strategies for STEM, culturally responsive strategies for STEM, knowledge building strategies for STEM, semantic waving in science instruction, and autonomy touring in science instruction.

This collection provides K-12 math and science curriculum units and practice guides authored by INE educators, as well as culturally responsive resources for educators and counselors.

This resource collection includes lessons for nine biology themes and content areas: matter and energy transformation, organization and development of living organisms, earth systems and patterns, energy, interdependence, heredity and reproduction, diversity and evolution of living organisms, the practice of science, and integration of knowledge and ideas. It also offers lessons for six different instructional elements: multiple modalities, funds of knowledge, collaboration, affirming identities, sociopolitical consciousness, and attention to language.
