What educators are saying

I've purchased these bundles for various grades and I always go back to them! Great resource to get class discussion! and it really explains topics to students. I try to pair a video with each lesson for a visual aid but overall great resource.
Great resource that was laid out nicely and easy to implement. My students enjoy that each 'article' is very short and has questions that follow it immediately. Easy to gadge if they understand the readings and great jumping off point for classroom discussion and further inquiry.
