Middle School Teacher in Chicago
We’ve been using this lesson in our class for about 4 years, even during the pandemic. It really is the easiest way to teach students about the Solar System. The students also always get so excited about the design portions. Keep the great products coming!
Produto excelente!
Usei a demonstração gratuita e adorei!! Ótima experiência para os alunos!! Parabéns!
(Translation: I used the free demo and loved it!! Great experience for students!! Congratulations!)
Fantastic Lesson
Primary teacher in Sydney Australia here. My students love this lesson! We’ve used it for several years now, and the students get so excited about learning. We just ordered the Water Cycle books, and can’t wait to try them!
Sugestão
Brazil: Já usei o modelo gratuito com meus alunos e adorei! Gostaria que houvessem mais opções de usar gratuitamente nas escolas públicas do interior
(I’ve used the free template with my students and I loved it! I wish there were more options to use for free in public schools in the interior)
Thank You!!!
Thank you StoneOak Media, for making amazing science products like this available for FREE during the CV-19 crisis. My students, all of who are now learning remotely, have really taken learning to the next level with this book, and Water Cycle Engineer. They’ve been so EXCITED, when I speak with them after these lessons. THANK YOU!!!
Test Drive The Mars Tour!
On the page shown below, students are asked to measure various aspects of the planet Mars. Once completed, these measurements are then recorded by the students within the “Exploration Notes” page of the workbook (shown above). At the end of the overall lesson/mission, students are then asked to use these measurements and others as a guide to help them determine which planet they would like to build a base on. Once they’ve selected a planet, these measurements then serve as a guide to help students build the right kind of base.
To try this experience for yourself, simply install the FREE Zappar app (iOS / Android) on a tablet or smartphone, and follow these simple directions:
Interior pages within the workbook are illustrated in grayscale for easy classroom reproduction
