My students love hands on projects and reading about how science is in our world. They are thirsty for knowledge and these kits provide the hands on experience that they crave. Each kit provides various projects that cover a wide variety of experiences. The kits each come with experiment cards with involving activities based on national science standards, tons of materials to complete each experiment and explore concepts in depth. Things like microscopes, pulleys and 3-D models to fun flip books are included in these kits. Our school recently started placing more emphasis on Science, but we have no supplies, books , or anything as of right now. I recently bought a small science kit for my classroom and my students loved it! They started hypothesizing, asking questions, journaling, and begging for more hand on activities. I'd really like to give it to them but need some help purchasing some of the supplies so that my students can have these hands on experiences and truly learn.
