These shakers are very durable and nice. The sound they make is pleasant, not too loud or quiet. \r\n\r\nWe are looking forward to continuing to use the egg shakers in our music making.

We have been focusing on opinion pieces and using facts to support our opinions. With each student having their own individual book now, they are able to seamlessly find text evidence to support their reasoning. \r\n\r\nMany students are enjoying these books and are even choosing to pick them up again during free reading time!
