"Great way for the kids to independently read and analyze what they learned through the use of the graphic organizer. They individually picked which plant they wanted to read about and then they shared with each other. It was a high-interest activity."

"Such a great resource and activity! The students are super engaged and everyone stays on task! The information that is provided is very interesting! Lots of different ways that you can incorporate it into your class."

I used this with my students as a group research activity. They worked together to learn about their assigned plant and then taught the class about it.
