What educators are saying

This resource made lesson planning easy for teaching weather. I liked how engaging each lesson was and how easy it was to follow. I liked all the hands on activities and how engaging it was for my class.
This curriculum is amazing. My school does not provide science or social studies curriculum for Kindergarten. This is a vital tool with amazing resources and pictures.
