Welcome, Achieve reviewers!

Authored by UC Berkeley’s Lawrence Hall of Science, Amplify Science was designed from the ground up for the Next Generation Science Standards to teach students to think, read, write, and argue like real scientists and engineers. The program combines literacy-rich activities with hands-on learning and digital tools to engage students in exploring a compelling real-world phenomenon in every unit.

On this site, you will find easy-to-follow instructions and resources to support your review.

Units for review

Amplify Science is a blended learning program where students take on the roles of scientists and engineers to solve real-world problems.

As a reviewer, you’ll have access to three Amplify Science units:

  • Grade 1: Plant and Animal Defenses
  • Grade 3: Weather and Climate
  • Middle School: Light Waves

Below you will find log in instructions for the digital curriculum.
