What educators are saying

I found this to be a very effective tool in helping my students understand the scientific method and the practice problems really gave my students the opportunity to practice what they were learning and me the chance to see if they were "getting it" :) Great resource!
Like all of Amy Brown Science items this was easy to implement. The content is thorough with engaging presentations and activities. These are some of the best science lessons that I have purchased on TPT.
