Exemplary programs have five elements common to all effective science education programs. One of those elements is described as "inquiry-centered science curriculum units that have gone through a research and review process." The curriculum materials ETHOS uses in its program meet this criterion. Further, these materials are aligned with the National Science Education Standards (NSES) and Indiana science standards. Districts can pick and choose modules specific to their own curriculum requirements. Below is ETHOS's K-8 recomended curriculum framework:

NOTE:

* If the USDA permit is approved for Land Snails in Indiana we would recommend that Animals 2 X 2 replace Trees           
** When the new curriculum for space science is released we would recommend that it would replace Pebbles Sand & Silt
