Awards, Quotes, Testimonials

"Students were engaged and interested in the program. They used higher thinking skills as they participated in the program. It is very well integrated into the science curriculum we follow. It also gives the children a real world perspective."

"Students had not been introduced to the vocabulary or carnivore, herbivore and omnivore prior to this program and in the days since, students have been using that vocab during our story "Seeds." Its a story about plants and many students remembered that herbivores eat plants :)"

"It is very well integrated into the science curriculum we follow. It also gives the children a real world perspective. Wonderful program! Many skills were addressed especially higher learning and thinking skills!"

"The program enhanced the unit on animals and mammals covered in class. It gives students opportunities to learn about animals of which they would otherwise have no knowledge. The program also enhances lessons taught on animals, habitats, and characteristics of mammals."
