"My use of academic scrapbooking in the classroom has resulted in enthusiastic students who remember what is being taught! " -Karen, Annadale, VA
I have used this approach since 1997. Your students will have similar results in this motivation-to-retention approach. For home, we have created the Home Play Workshop using the same research-based principles.
Please note that I follow all internet children's laws for the protection and confidence of your family and students.
