I’ve printed and looked through Reptiles. I’m really excited to start this with my third grade son. I’m most impressed how simple but effective it will be! I’ve eyed and looked through so many reptile units like xxxxxx, etc. I feel so many science units are information overload and really over the heads of kids. Your unit gets to the point and is in a language kids will actually connect with! AND it’s not full of write a paragraph, write, write, write and more writing!"
