Yes, this is definitely The ClueFinders. More specifically The Mystery of Mathra.

Ok so I played this game on the children computers at my library. The game has 2 main characters a boy and girl who you lead around point and click style. They also have a talking flying yellow rectangle that follows them around. (It might be a backpack or something) The game taught math and science. The girl had an uncle (I think) Who took them to this goo island where the game takes place. The island is very Mayan Temple themed. This was all at a 3rd grade level. Every time you solve a puzzle you get goo beetles you need to collect to finish the game. Some of the mini games included figuring out different parts of a life cycle, logic puzzles, strategy, etc. The goo was hurting the characters on the island. I vividly remember a bunch of anthropomorphic flowers who sung a song about the goo that infected the island. I only ever played this game at the library on children computers, which have preset games on them and can't access the internet. The goo beetles came in all different colours that were needed for a final puzzle. The game also had a squeal for 4th graders that focused more on history and took place in a desert. PLEASE let me know if you remember anything about this. Thanks!
