Know before you buy
You can download a detailed teacher guide for each of our kits, including kit contents and student instructions.

This information will allow you to be certain that the kit is appropriate for your curriculum and your students.
Uniquely suited for diverse learning environments
Science Take-Out kits are uniquely suited for students and teachers in laboratory, classroom, home, or informal educational settings.
Each Science Take-Out kit contains all the materials and instructions needed to complete the laboratory activity. Safety goggles, water, scissors, and paper towels for clean-up are the only materials not provided in the kits.
Science Take-Out kits are ideal for situations where access to lab facilities or equipment is limited. They can be used in classrooms or non-school settings such as homes, tutoring centers, or enrichment programs.
Science Take-Out activities involve students in active, hands-on and minds-on inquiry learning. Students develop inquiry process skills such as developing hypotheses, collecting data, creating graphs and tables, analyzing data, and drawing conclusions.
Easy-to-follow instructions use engaging illustrations, manipulative models, and safe simulations of authentic laboratory methods. All needed materials are provided in the kits so that students can work efficiently.
Teacher guides contain answer keys, descriptions of core concepts, and suggestions for extension activities. Kits may be used by educators with minimal science background or teaching experience.
Science Take-Out kits are sold individually, so you can buy just what you need. You can purchase a single kit or mix and match any combination of our kits. Economical unassembled packs and refill packs are also available.
