Science Resources of the Week:
By Schlessinger Media SCIENCE Library
I got these DVD’s from the Library. They are designed for children grades K-4. Each run about 25 minutes.
Check out their website at www.LibraryVideo.com
There are links for teachers and data sheets for students on their website.
You guys are about a week or 2 ahead of us in MFW :) Thanks for the DVD ideas. I'll have to see if I can find them at the library around here.
ReplyDeleteWe did Adventures a few years ago for our first year with MFW. It was such a nice year -- the read-alouds were terrific. From that year on we have been hooked on MFW!
