My Project

Science is tricky to teach, especially for a classroom like ours. My kids thrive on being able to touch and feel the concept being taught.

These science kits/activities will be great for my students!

They'll be able to feel each part of the plant and animal life cycles. The fun sensory bin for our outer space unit will be neat! The motion/force kit will be an awesome, fun way to explain that topic.

The kids will just love to do all the experiments and really FEEL some science.

Let's make science fun!
