I teach 5th grade specifically science, which tends to be hard for students to learn without hands-on and interactive materials. We can read books and show videos but the students need to get in and touch, move, and explore. This bundle helps with this and more importantly helps them with vocabulary. We seem to find that any time a student knows the concept but not what the word is called. Or that once they know and understand the vocabulary the reading and question become easier because they are able to break down questions and experiment into things they understand and are able to do. This bundle has opportunities galore for this to happen and offers me as the teacher so many resources and activities that are prepaid and usable for online and in-person lessons.
