Easy Science Experiments And Activites For First And Second Grade Classrooms.
The Quirkles® are 26 imaginary scientists that help children every day, all over the world, develop a love and appreciation for science. Perfect for primary grade learners, the Quirkles® offer a fresh new way to develop early science/literacy skills that align to state and national standards, while also creating the building blocks for future learning. For the youngest learner, phonemic alliteration enhances reading readiness. For more advanced students, it offers a fun, whimsical way to develop/reinforce robust science concepts. Vocabulary builders and two related science activities will create an excitement for learning too! A character education lesson is also included in each of the 26 alphabet-series books. If you want to take inquiry science learning even further, enhance the Quirkles book series even more with More Quirkles Learning: Taking Quirkles Learning to the Next Level.
For educators, the Quirkles offers an easy way to get science into your packed teaching day with much of the work done for you. While in primary grades, the Quirkles can easily serve as stand-alone science, for those using traditional science textbooks, the Quirkles offers an inquiry-based, hands-on, fun way to reinforce. Even non-science loving teachers love the Quirkles! For a complete introduction and to meet each Quirkle, begin with "About The Quirkles" and work your way through the main menu bar above.
