❤️ Joel R. says, "I purchased a few smaller resources from this bundle and loved them, so I went ahead and got the whole year. Everything is well aligned to standards and engaging for students. My 7th graders loved this resource! Very active and engaging learning for them. The Scienstructables are great! Definitely recommend this for anyone looking to teach this topic."
