Je me sentais généralement insatisfaite du matériel et des ressources disponibles que je trouvais en ligne et dans mon école. Je trouvais que la plupart des affaires étaient axées sur le vocabulaire et moins sur la compréhension et l'application. Bref, elles étaient poches et ennuyantes. Mes produits sont engageants et à leur niveau!

J'ai créé un paquet avec chaque élément dont vous avez besoin pour enseigner la science en 6e année à vos élèves en immersion. Chaque unité est complet avec du contenu, des activités, des jeux, des documents, des projets intégrés et des recherches très attrayants. Ils peuvent facilement être laissés à un suppléant et ont été créés à l'origine pour que mes élèves travaillent de manière indépendante afin que je puisse travailler avec de petits groupes.

* Des centaines * de pages de contenu vous feront économiser d'innombrables heures de préparation, de création et de recherche. Vous économiserez également de l'argent en les achetant en lot!

Vous aimez ce que vous voyez mais voulez en voir plus? Envoyez-moi un message pour demander des cours et des activités spécifiques et abonnez-vous à ma boutique pour rester informé!

Prenez soin les uns des autres et AMUSEZ-VOUS!
