We are using these items to explore topics such as, animal life cycles, ant colonies, butterflies, plant parts, recycling, and space. My students cannot wait until the springtime so we can take advantage of the butterfly kit. Bringing science to life is making my heart so happy for my students and I love seeing their inquisitive side show up. School has become just test, test, test, and they are so outdone with that.

When I would try to print resources, worksheets, and materials for my kiddos, the printer would often be uncooperative and often wouldn't work at all. This was incredibly frustrating when trying to print materials for my students. My school has limited funding for workbooks and such, so my fellow teachers and I were often left to source out our own materials and print them at home. For this project I had requested a new classroom printer that could quickly and efficiently print the materials needed to succeed. You made this project come true and my students and I couldn't be happier.
