With Gizmos, kids get it.Gizmos are online simulations that excite curiosity and invite

interaction. We’ve got over 400 Gizmos in our library covering

topics and concepts in math and science for grades 3-12.

Gizmos help students dig deeper into subjects and really

understand challenging concepts.

Gizmos gives everyone something to visualize, manipulate,

and compare. That’s hundreds of opportunities where

students don’t just act like scientists and mathematicians.

They are.

Discover. Analyze. Understand.Gizmos helps students to make connections and draw

conclusions with an interactive design that supports a

manipulation of variables and “what-if” experimentation.

Every Gizmo comes with extensive teaching resources that

help make planning and teaching easy. Whole group, small

group or 1:1 lessons, we’ve got you covered.

Like to Play? So Do We! Support the latest standards and assessments

MATHPARCC sample test for

seventh grade: This

sample test item asks

students to describe how

the graph of the time/

distance data would

support their answers.

ExploreLearning Gizmos help prepare students for rigorous new standards and online assessments. With alignments to the latest state and national standards, a quick standards search gives teachers the perfect Gizmo to get students ready for success.

Many sample test items on new computer-based assessments feature interactive tools directly integrated into the questions. These ‘Gizmo-like’ questions feature similar content and functions as the simulations in our library.

Go deeper: Assessment questions,

inquiry-based lesson

plans and customizable

activities help create

more moments to

explore, discover and

apply new concepts.

Discover concepts: Interactive controls, like sliders and

moveable objects, allow you to set

up and run your simulation. Hit

play to see the results or reset to try

something different. You’re in control.

Analyze data: Visualizations, screenshots

and graphing tools help you

easily capture and compare

results from experiments.

SCIENCEFifth-grade science

sample test item from

Utah: This sample test

item asks students to add

the Moon in the correct

position for a New Moon.

Distance-Time Graphs Gizmo: Observe the relationship between a

runner’s motion, time, and distance on

a graph to learn what slope indicates

and calculate speed.

Phases of the Moon Gizmo: Learn how the positions

of the Moon, Earth, and Sun are related to the phases

of the Moon. Upon completion of the Gizmo students

would easily be able to complete the assessment

diagram by selecting the correct position of the Moon

during the New Moon phase.

Play, explore and experience the “ah-ha!” moment with Gizmos.
