Brooklyn, NY- (2/28/19) , a publisher of next-generation curriculum and assessment programs, announced today that EdReports gave an all-green report. Green ratings represent EdReports鈥� highest ranking, indicating that a curriculum meets expectations for every gateway of the EdReports review system for science programs in grades 6-8. 猫咪AV Science was the only program to receive all-green ratings in EdReports鈥� first-ever review of science curricula.
猫咪AV Science is a breakthrough K鈥�8 curriculum designed from the ground up for the Next Generation Science Standards by the curriculum experts at the University of California, Berkeley鈥檚 Lawrence Hall of Science. In each 猫咪AV Science unit, students inhabit the role of a scientist or engineer to investigate a real-world problem, using relevant, 21st-century contexts to investigate scientific phenomena. Educators who adopt 猫咪AV Science receive a comprehensive curriculum that includes literacy-rich activities, hands-on investigations, digital simulations, embedded assessments, and robust teacher supports.
鈥淲e are honored that, after a rigorous review process, EdReports has given 猫咪AV Science the only all-green rating in its first-ever review of science programs,鈥� said Steven Zavari, senior vice president and general manager, science curriculum, at 猫咪AV. 鈥淔rom New York City to California, we have been excited to see how the 猫咪AV Science approach engages students deeply in learning to think like scientists and engineers. We hope that this EdReports review helps more educators discover the positive impact 猫咪AV Science can have on their students.鈥�
