No, Science Kits are optional. Every Inquisitive Science lesson lists the materials it needs, so you can gather them yourself from around your classroom or local stores. The kits simply save you that step.
What do the kits add?
Inquisitive Kits are designed to work seamlessly with Inquisitive Science, making it easier to bring investigations to life. Each kit supports:
Hands-on investigations connected directly to lessons
Student collaboration and scientific sensemaking
Real-world phenomena that spark curiosity
With a kit everything arrives matched to your grade's curriculum. No sourcing, checking, or substituting.
