Hi guys! I'm in the process of long-term planning and shopping for our upcoming K year (before dc3 arrives!) and thought you guys could help me put together a list of materials and resources and things to buy for our themes:

 

I'd like any good and fun science tools and materials, literature tie-ins, kits, videos, games, specimens, etc, etc. Anything to keep me and my little explorers learning and discovering! So any good recommendations you have for science in general and some of the specific themes below?

 

the human body - Some Body game

skeleton and bones

dental health

five senses

 

plants

seeds

trees and leaves

pumpkins

 

rocks and soil - need a rock/mineral kit

volcanoes

fossils

dinosaurs

 

light discovery

shadows

colors (rainbows)

 

materials

magnets

sink or float

electricity

motion

 

seasons and weather

rain

snow

clouds

water

 

animals

life cycles (butterfly, frog)

animal homes

insects

birds

fish and oceans

 

habitats

landforms

 

Not sure if that's all of them but enough to start planning and shopping. I'm overseas, so a lot of the stuff will need to be ordered and I'm trying to stay ahead.

 

So far, I plan on getting more from the Let's Read and Find Out and Magic School bus series to go along with these topics and a Zoomy microscope. I was also looking at some of the related toobs.

 

Thanks!
