Mystery Science Added to Line Up of Quality Online Resources

Heartland AEA has purchased access to Mystery Science for all K-6 schools in our service area. Mystery Science lessons are open-and-go and inspire students to love science. Teachers simply gather a few materials and start teaching right away! We think teachers will find the videos and lessons to be engaging and supportive of inquiry, and Mystery Science will assist teachers in making the transition to the Next Generation Science Standards. This short video provides an overview of Mystery Science and gives an example of what lessons are like.

Mystery Science will work a little differently than the other Heartland AEA-provided online resources, as it is geared to teachers, not students. While the lesson videos will be shown to students, the support materials are for teachers.

How to Access
Teachers access Mystery Science through a personal account they create independently. You’ll find the link at www.heartlandaea.org / Library & Digital Resources / Online Resources / K-5th Grades and on the Heartland AEA science pages.
 
To create an account for the first time, follow the online prompts. If you’ve created an account in the past and have difficulty logging in, email support@mysteryscience.com or call 650-550-0670.

If you have questions about how to use Mystery Science in your classroom, contact Susan Schrader, Director of Resources & Library Services or Rob Kleinow, Peg Christensen or Craig Edmondson, science consultants.
