Science Learning Systems (SLS) is a revolutionary new standards-based program designed to accelerate the acquisition of critical science vocabulary development, including pronunciations, spellings, definitions, usage, and fluency of almost 2,000 words or terms. With the same proven approach used in developing CEI’s ELS and MLS, SLS empowers students of all ages to improve their science knowledge by helping users overcome sensory processing problems and develop appropriate learning pathways.

SLS Benefits
CEI's clients are very excited to learn about SLS. They see the following benefits:
- SLS accelerates
the learning of science vocabulary for all students,
including ELLs and students with disabilities
- SLS will
improve students' class grades, prepare them for
state assessments, help to narrow the achievement
gap, and improve accreditation ratings
- SLS will
save teachers' time
- SLS is
affordable and cost-effective
- SLS is
solidly grounded in scientific evidence on how students
are motivated to learn and how studens learned
Classroom Applications
SLS, because it is standards-based and appropriate for Tier I as well as interventions for those who struggle, has multiple possible uses in a science classroom:
- Teachers can use SLS lessons to pre-teach vocabulary before teaching a science unit. This strategy might be especially important for ELL students and others with weak vocabulary backgrounds
- SLS lessons can be used to reinforce the classroom instruction and to provide adequate and varied practice with the science words and terms so that they are truly mastered
- SLS lessons can be used for students to review prior learning before teacher assessments
- SLS lessons can be used for review before state science assessments
- SLS has 250 lessons, which cover content in grades 3-5, can be used as enrichment for advanced or gifted/talented students who are ready to move ahead
SLS is site-licensed, operational in classrooms or labs, and requires no formal training.
Teachers will receive a manual and an interactive training CD.
