Houghton Mifflin Harcourt® has carefully aligned its K–12 science programs to meet the demands of the TEKS and Texas Assessments. HMH® provides a wide variety of supplemental resources to support the way you teach science in today’s diverse classrooms.
Introducing HMH Into Science
HMH Into Science
Grades K–5
HMH Into Science and HMH ¡Arriba las Ciencias! nurture students with simpler, more effective learning solutions. The 3-dimensional learning combined with a phenomena-based storyline meets both the letter and spirit of Next Generation Science Standards.
FUNomenal Readers
FUNomenal Readers
Grades K–5
The FUNomenal Readers model the process of “doing” science and making sense of phenomena. Instead of telling students facts, they teach them how to investigate science phenomena.
Build Science Literacy
Science & Engineering Leveled Readers
Grades K–5
Provide students extra support with engaging science and engineering content available in a variety of levels. Supporting both English and Spanish, we have more than 30 readers per grade available in print or digital formats. Teacher resource materials include guided reading and vocabulary development strategies.
Classroom STEM Resources
Engineering Design Guides
Grades 9-12
Engineering can serve as a motivating context for integrating the four STEM disciplines. Available for Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, these guides provide an overview of the engineering design process, along with activities and checklists that can help foster students’ critical-thinking and problem-solving skills.

Texas Biology —Grades 9–12
Grades 9–12
With its comprehensive suite of print, multimedia, and digital tools, the Texas Edition of Dr. Stephen Nowicki’s Biology is specifically designed to provide a multimodal approach to covering 100% of the TEKS.
Teachers and students alike will benefit from user-friendly print and digital support designed for below-level to Pre-AP® students and the engaging interactive presentation materials that bring biology to life. Biology is the perfect solution for Texas educators looking for one textbook program to help all their students master the TEKS.
Texas Modern Chemistry —Grades 9–12
Grades 9–12
Modern Chemistry® is an authoritative text based on expert authorship and solid content and places a strong emphasis on the fundamentals of chemistry and problem-solving skills.
The Texas Edition now includes a comprehensive suite of print, multimedia, and digital tools to support mastery of learning for 100% of the TEKS. Teachers and students alike will benefit from user-friendly print and digital support. Additionally, new state-of-the-art technology has been developed to capture and hold student interest, helping them to see chemistry in new “real-world” ways.
Texas Physics —Grades 9–12
Grades 9–12
Texas Physics reflects the instructional philosophies of authors Raymond Serway and Jerry Faughn: melding conceptual physics and problem solving.
No other program matches the best balance of conceptual and problem-solving strategies while covering 100% of the TEKS. Since problem solving in physics is challenging for most students, Physics provides a comprehensive suite of print and digital tools that focus on strengthening these critical skills. Texas Physics offers the latest technology and multimedia resources that speak directly to students in a language they understand—ensuring they will stay engaged.
Environmental Science —Grades 9–12
Grades 9–12
Developed specifically for high school students, Environmental Science presents an unbiased approach to the environment, with comprehensive coverage of ecology, Earth science, health, and policy issues.
Enhanced by a wealth of engaging online resources, hands-on labs and activities, and supportive review features, the program’s visually appealing narrative helps students build skills for success in science. Dr. Michael Heithaus joins well-known biologist Karen Arms as co-author for this edition.
Texas World of Chemistry
World of Chemistry was developed specifically for high school students.
It is known for its accessibility with its use of excellent visuals, numerous problem-solving examples, wide range of end-of-chapter exercises, and real-world applications. A unique Table of Contents keeps student needs in mind. Macro-to-micro organization introduces the “language” of chemistry early and delays coverage of atomic theory and bonding until later.
