The Living Science Department provides districts, private schools, and charters that have joined the Living Science Cooperative, access to both living and non-living materials for cross-curricular use in the classroom. We have a variety of items that can enhance teachers' lesson plans, creating a hands-on learning experience in reading, math, science, social studies, and more!
