Teach the Science of Wildlife with Gizmos

Walk on the wild side with our collection of animal-centered Gizmos. Help your students explore the world of animal wildlife with our interactive STEM simulations!

Cellular Gizmos

Meowsis

As a geneticist in an animal hospital, students learn about genetic changes in meiosis to determine the reason why a male cat can have calico fur coloring.

Cell Energy Cycle

Explore the processes of photosynthesis and respiration that occur within plant and animal cells.

Cell Structure

Select sample cells from a plant or animal and place the cells on a microscope to look inside the cells.

Cell Types

Explore a wide variety of cells, from bacteria to human neurons, using a compound light microscope.

Ecosystems Gizmos

Ecosystems

As a national park ranger, students must restore the ecosystem of a park back to normal.

Food Chain

In this ecosystem consisting of hawks, snakes, rabbits and grass, the population of each species can be studied as part of a food chain.

Prairie Ecosystem

Observe the populations of grass, prairie dogs, ferrets and foxes in a prairie ecosystem.

Carbon Cycle

Follow the path of a carbon atom through the atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere.

Comparing Climates

Compare average temperatures, precipitation, humidity, and wind speed for a variety of locations across the globe.

What are Gizmos?

More than 550 math and science Gizmos give everyone something to graph, measure, and compare. Even predict and prove. That's hundreds of opportunities where students don't just act like scientists and mathematicians. They are.

Why Gizmos work

Meta-analysis of educational research identifies several instructional techniques that have a strong positive impact on student achievement. Math and science Gizmos bring these powerful and effective instructional techniques to the classroom.

Take a Tour of Gizmos

Gizmos make math and science come to life with hundreds of interactive ‘what-if’ experiments where students learn by seeing, doing, and reasoning. Take a tour and learn more Gizmos can help your students!
