Curriculum
Science through Inquiry
NEW for 2009
Standards based, equipment independent and featuring guided inquiry, PASCO's new lab manuals are idea for making sure learning opportunities are not missed. Fully editable, with "sequencing challenges" and "key term challenges" to ensure that students are fully engaged, there are also multiple choice questions to ensure that students are prepared for crucial standardized exams.
Explorations Lab Manuals
Labs with computers
The Explorations series of lab manuals help teachers incorporate electronic data collection into science experiments when using PASPORT sensors. Each manual includes 25 core standards-based labs.
AP Chemistry & the Xplorer GLX
Includes all 22 experiments recommended by the College Board plus eight bonus labs.
Carolina AP Lab Kits
PASCO and Carolina have joined together to create AP Lab Kits and probeware bundles. Kits include supplies and DataStudio Electronic Workbooks.
AP Curriculum
Wiley & Sons AP Physics
PASCO lab manuals and probeware bundles for both algebra-based and calculus-based AP Physics.
AP Chemistry & the Xplorer GLX

Textbooks
Use probeware for the curriculum you already teach!
Textbook Correlations for over 20 science texts. Correlated to PASCO's Explorations series of lab manuals and Teacher Resource Kits. Prentice Hall texts are supported by PASCO with probeware eLabs and convenient probeware bundles. Wiley & Sons texts are supported with special PASCO lab manuals for AP Physics and College Introductory Physics.
Advanced Curriculum
NEW for 2009
Advanced and AP experiments matched to standards and designed with the College Board AP curriculum in mind, these lab manuals can be used with any of PASCO's data collection systems (SPARK, DataStudio, Xplorer GLX, SPARKvue). They are all fully editable and contain pre-lab discussions and post-lab activiites to ensure continuity with lectures.
Lab Manuals for Xplorer GLX
Labs without computers
These labs are written for the Xplorer GLX used as a stand-alone device. Measure, analyze, print or save to a USB flash drive for further analysis or reports.
TRKs for Middle School
Teacher Resource Kits
These TRKs are a combination of written and electronic materials for grades 5 through 9. Includes comprehensive lesson planning information and teaching strategies.
More Activities for Middle School & Primary
ImagiLabs
Students are asked to investigate a central question, for example, "How is it possible to make ice cream without a freezer?"
SensorScience
These activities guide younger students through fun and meaningful investigations about the world around them.
