12 years in middle school science — making the resources I wished I had.

A science teacher who got tired of mediocre worksheets.
I'm Michael Shade, the teacher behind Science Units — 12 years in middle school science classrooms, and counting. I make the engaging, standards-aligned resources I always wished I could just download at 7am on a Monday.
Everything I publish is classroom-tested with real students before it ever reaches your room.
What I create
