Great Reviews!
Hailey ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Extremely Satisfied
So great to see such a hands-on resource for teaching earth and space science. My students really engaged with the modeling activities and I think they have a much better grasp of the content as a result. Thank you! I will be purchasing more of your resources.
Elizabeth ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Extremely Satisfied
The model activities were great. I also think the reading passages that focused on evaluating models was helpful. Students enjoyed these activities.
