Amplify Science Virtual Booth (K–5)
Since we’re unable to meet with you at spring events, we’d like to bring our conference experience to you!
We know a virtual booth is a little different than what you’re used to at conferences, but we tried our best to replicate an in-person experience for you—including:
- videos from real Amplify Science classrooms
- program information about phenomena-based storylines, hands-on investigations, digital simulations, and more!
- remote professional learning opportunities
- access to a free sample unit of Amplify Science
What is Amplify Science?
Built from the ground up for the Next Generation Science Standards at UC Berkeley’s Lawrence Hall of Science, Amplify Science is a comprehensive program that blends literacy-rich activities, hands-on investigations, and interactive digital tools to empower students to think, read, write, and argue like 21st-century scientists and engineers. Highly adaptable and user-friendly, the program gives schools and individual teachers flexibility with their technology resources and preferences.
The program is backed by gold-standard research and is currently used by thousands of classrooms across the US.
See Amplify Science in action
In Amplify Science, students take on the role of a scientist or engineer to actively investigate compelling phenomena-based storyline through engaging hands-on investigations, immersive digital simulations, comprehensive reading and writing activities, and lively classroom discussions. But you don’t have to just take our word for it. Hear what teachers and students using the program around the country have to say about it.

Dig deeper into the curriculum
If we were meeting with you in person, we’d give you some print brochures that would tell you about things like phenomena-based storylines, hands-on investigations, and digital simulations. But since we can’t do that, here are the digital versions of those brochures. All you need to do is choose your grade level.
Free, on-demand professional development
Access free, on-demand professional development from the Lawrence Hall of Science and Amplify Science teachers! Learning design experts from The Hall explore evidence in the era of NGSS and phenomena-based science instruction, while real classroom teachers share tips and best practices surrounding remote learning.
