From the Gold Rush in California, to the many uses of crayons, students will explore the diversity and complexity of the concept of discoveries in "Discoveries," a book in the Multiage Differentiated Curriculum Kit for Grades 1-3. The books in Prufrock's new Differentiated Curriculum Kits employ a differentiated, integrated curriculum based on broad themes. This all-in-one curriculum helps teachers save planning time, ensure compliance with national standards, and most importantly, pique their students? natural excitement and interest in discovery. By participating in the wide variety of activities in the Multiage Differentiated Curriculum Kit for Grades 1-3, students will appreciate the discoveries around them and gain a lifelong desire to learn. Through the eyes of a tiny mouse, students are led to evaluate and discover what they are truly made of. Students investigate why discoveries from the past are important to the present and the future. Students also will examine how discoveries are made by studying those made by historically significant explorers and researchers.
