Kate Shelley and the Midnight Express READING + STEM Elementary GATE
If you’ve come to know my units, you’ll find the same sort of critical thinking and hands-on exploration and creativity here . . .
Come all the way across the curriculum from READING to STEM activities in this hands-on unit. My advanced group 2nd graders loved this! I would use this for advanced 1st graders in their second semester or 3rd grade as well. I don’t think it would be a stretch to say 4th graders would enjoy it as well.
