Description

This unique and impactful Earth Science Bundle is jam-packed with comic-style content, supplementals, and hands-on learning. This bundle will empower even your most reluctant learners to engage in reading and improve their science literacy during the extended school year.
Give your learners a break from screens. Cool School Comics delivers content in comic form, but unlike regular comic books, these comics cover a topic in one compact page making them easy to print and get in the hands of eager readers.
If your students seem bored with the current curriculum it's time to try something new. Take advantage of the graphic novel craze and use comics to teach science!
