My 11 year-old son would love the Earth & Space topics. My 7 year-old son would love Plants and Animals. I personally would love the Health topics!

I think my daughter would be most interested in learning about animals.

I think my students would especially love the Geography books! We have a heavy focus on geography in fourth grade here in CO!

What a great giveaway! As a Social Studies teacher in Florida I am always in need of resources for my 5th graders. Our curriculum lacks all of the material needed to master the standards. I know these would be great for small group learning! Thank you for offering such a great prize!

I know my niece would love the plants & animals cards!

My son is very into animals but I think his interest in the Earth, space and Geography will continue to grow as we work on pre-K this fall.

My daughter really loves to read about earth and space its actually a hobby that she likes to do in her spare time. I would love to get her working on geography and other learning material.

Animals are my kids current fact love, but I know they would enjoy all the others too.

I think my niece would be most interested in animals, but she loves to learn about most anything.
