Why I’m So Excited to Offer Science Teacher Resource Subscription Services

Launching my science teacher subscription service has been one of the most exciting steps in my journey as The Teaching Astrophysicist. After creating hundreds and hundreds of science teaching resources across every major discipline - space science, biology, chemistry, physics, health and medical science, and earth science - I knew it was time to build something even more helpful, more supportive, and more accessible for teachers everywhere.



That “something” became my Science Teacher Resource Subscription Services: monthly memberships that deliver five high-quality, classroom-ready teaching resources straight to your inbox - each one designed to save time, spark curiosity, and strengthen your science instruction.


This blog post is all about why I’m so excited to offer these subscription services, why they’re such powerful tools for middle and high school teachers, and why they deliver tremendous value for the price - far beyond what you typically see in teaching resource marketplaces.


Why a Science Resource Subscription Is a Game-Changer for Teachers


1. Science teachers deserve meaningful support

Teaching science is rewarding, but it’s also demanding. Labs, safety rules, demos, long units, fast pacing, and high expectations can make planning overwhelming. A subscription removes planning pressure by giving you a steady flow of high-quality, ready-to-use resources each month.


Whether you’re prepping for astronomy one week and human biology the next, your subscription makes it easy to stay ahead with materials that are expertly designed, visually engaging, and aligned with real classroom needs.


2. You receive 5 different resources every month


Each month includes a carefully curated blend of:

  • Science reading passages with comprehension questions

  • Research project templates (webquests)

  • Critical thinking frameworks

  • Hexagonal thinking activity templates

  • Interactive worksheets

  • Strange but true fact sets

  • Science stories

  • Mini projects and challenges

  • Digital activities and simulations

  • New and engaging activities to come and be developed


This variety keeps your lessons fresh, your students engaged, and your planning lighter. No more scrambling for last-minute sub plans or rushing to make worksheets at midnight. You always have something valuable ready to go.


3. It supports all major science strands


Teachers rarely teach just one domain. Over the course of a school year, most educators rotate through several topics. That’s why subscriptions include resources across the full spectrum of science:


Every month feels like a mini PD course + resource bundle wrapped together - and tailored specifically for science teachers.


4. It provides stability, inspiration, and creativity


A subscription means you never hit a creative block. Each month brings new ideas, new formats, new stories, and new teaching opportunities. It keeps your lessons exciting for both you and your students.


The resources aren’t filler - they are polished, classroom-tested materials designed to help students think deeply, reason scientifically, and enjoy learning.


Why the Subscription Is Tremendous Value: 50%+ Savings Every Month


One of the things I’m most proud of is that each subscription delivers over 50% in savings every single month. You’re receiving five full teaching resources, often worth:

  • $15–$20 (even to $25 and beyond) each individually

  • which would usually cost $180–$240 per year, but instead you pay $96 for the whole year and 60 targeted resources!


…but through the subscription, you get them for half the total value or even less.

This means teachers can stretch their budget further, get more variety, and enjoy high-quality teaching tools without worrying about price every time they want something new.

For teachers using school budgets, it’s a perfect way to guarantee a steady supply of materials. For teachers using personal funds, it’s a way to access premium content without the premium price.


Why I’m So Proud of This Subscription Service


1. I finally get to share my entire resource world with you

I have created well over a thousand science resources / bundles, and I’m still building more every month. Having a subscription service means I can share more of these materials than ever before - resources that otherwise might go unseen by teachers who don’t browse every corner of my catalogue.


2. My resource quality is always improving

Every year I improve my writing, visuals, structure, digital design, and scaffolding. That means the longer teachers stay subscribed, the better the materials they receive will be.

Subscriptions grow stronger with time - not weaker.


3. It lets teachers feel supported, not overwhelmed

Teachers already carry so much. This subscription is my way of saying: “You don’t have to do it alone. I’ve got you.”


It gives teachers flexibility, structure, and creativity without adding to their workload.


4. It builds a community fueled by curiosity and science literacy

By supporting science teachers, I’m supporting students and that’s something I’m incredibly passionate about. Science is a subject of wonder, discovery, and logic. Helping teachers deliver that spark is one of the great joys of what I do.


Why This Subscription Keeps Getting Better Over Time

  • More resources added every month

  • New formats introduced each year

  • Expanding topics based on teacher requests

  • Seasonal and themed resources included

  • Updated materials as science evolves

  • Special subscriber bonus items planned for the future


As my creative library grows, your subscription value grows with it.


Final Thoughts: Why I’m So Excited

Creating this subscription service has been one of the most meaningful steps in my work as a science educator. It reflects everything I believe about science teaching:

  • that it should be accessible

  • that it should be inspiring

  • that teachers deserve support

  • that students deserve curiosity-driven lessons

  • and that resources should make your life easier - not harder


With hundreds upon hundreds of resources already created (and hundreds more still coming), this subscription allows me to share my best work with you - monthly, consistently, and at a price that truly honors your budget.


If you’re a science teacher looking for creativity, structure, value, and excitement in your classroom, I would love to welcome you into this growing community.


Your lessons get better. Your planning gets lighter. Your budget stretches further. And your students experience science in a powerful, meaningful way.


That’s why I’m so excited - and why I can’t wait for you to join.


Thanks for reading

Cheers and stay curious
