WHAT OTHER TEACHERS ARE SAYING:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Used this for my first grade class as an art and science project and they LOVED it. They found it so exciting and loved to become scientists that day. We didn't have any stamping ink, so I showed them how to do fingerprint art with a small amount of paint and it worked very well. Great resource and look forward to using it again in the future!” - Ashley (1st Grade Teacher)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “My learners were super engaged with this and the activities were really helpful for checking understanding too. This made planning our science fair super easy and I appreciate how easy this was to use, and how well written and thought out this resource is. Thanks so much!” - (3rd Grade Teacher)
