[MaineLiteracy] Upper Elementary Project from Our Friends in Vermont

[Saucier, Danielle M]

Good morning,
Our partners at the Vermont Department of Education shared the information about this resource – it looks like a fun, interdisciplinary teaching resource that was recently shared with me. Interesting podcast series, short videos and teacher guides based on questions kids ask. 😊
