This way, I can start laminating them to keep the resources safe so we can use them year after year in our academic centers. \r\n\r\nI was able to get a whole year set of STEAM activities for our science center so students can practice retelling what they will learn in our monthly ELA and reading picture books about pumpkins, plants/trees, shells, different holidays, human body, colors, apples, buildings, magnets, insects, snow/winter and etc. Every year, my students love to retell stories about what from read aloud books with each other. This year, they will get more opportunities to retell what they learn while getting their minds and hands busy in our science center. It is going to so priceless to see them not just engaged but excited to take what they have learned into exploring them through the eyes of a young scientists.\r\n\r\nOnce again, thank you so much for your generosity and kindness.
