Every MindSpark unit below lists its TEKS codes directly in the lesson materials, so you can drop them straight into your plan book.
Scientific Method — TEKS 5.2, 5.3
Scientific inquiry, variables, evidence and reasoning
Properties & Changes in Matter — TEKS 5.5
States of matter, mixtures, solutions, physical and chemical change
Forms of Energy — TEKS 5.6

TEKS codes shown are unit-level strand references; each mission's lesson materials list the exact sub-codes. Always confirm against your district's current scope and sequence.
