It was an easy follow-along, and a great resource for my whole group time, and independent practice. My students were very engaged and loved showing off what they learned.

Each lesson includes multiple real life picture cards that you can project in your classroom using technology or that you can print out to generate a discussion at the beginning of your lesson. The pictures include topics and questions for your students to discuss.This will help build schema and get your students thinking about the essential questions. Each lesson also includes activities (experiments), extension ideas, and a list of the materials that you will need to gather before each lesson.
The science activities and experiments will let your students explore each concept in a hands-on format.
