We are rolling out some fantastic science units based on NGSS standards. One of the first topics we will be focusing on Animal groups and their characteristics. Instead of only exposing students to 2-dimensional materials on the subject of animal groups like books and videos, I would love to put the learning into their hands. This resources such as Specimen Centers that we are requesting are awesome kits that contain realistic materials like the students would be out of nature learning like actual scientists! Many of my students don't get the opportunity to see these different animal types in their life. This is a chance to put it in their hands and get them exciting for learning as well as memorable!
