Getting Started with Backyard Brains

You are taking the first step toward transforming your classroom into a dynamic environment of discovery and innovation. At Backyard Brains we believe that science is not just for the lab, it is for everyone. Whether you are teaching curious fourth graders or advanced high-school students, our neuroscience kits and curriculum will empower you to captivate and inspire your students through hands-on, discovery-based learning.

Where to go next

• Browse the experiments index and pick one that matches the signal you want your students to record: muscle, heart, brain, plant, or invertebrate.
• Check the kit each experiment lists, and look at the bulk-order options on the product page if you are equipping a whole class.
• Read the teacher version of the experiment write-up before the lesson; every experiment ships with a teacher and a student version.
• Ask us anything through the contact page. We answer setup questions from teachers every week.
