A Fantastic Tool
The WWD kit is a fantastic tool to teach primary school students literacy and science to boot, Very pleasant and enjoyable, and very scientifically-oriented. I think all students should go through with this kit. I certainly enjoyed it. Well worth the effort to teach younger students; as it entices the young ones to learn in a cross-curricular fashion.
