Customer Testimonials
The lesson was so easy to prepare! We loved the real world connection to UN goals and seeing the video of women in Africa who are selling solar powered items as a business.
The ForwardEdu lesson plans have helped us create meaningful inquiry units with students of a variety of ages. We use the Climate Action Kits as our main resource when delivering STEM content.
Lesson preparation was very easy to implement with the Forward Education Lessons and Resources course library.
The layout of resources, simple links with simple steps. Having everything ready for teachers to use and reference saves our staff a lot of time and really motivates teachers to use the kits.
So amazing at integration with NGSS Science standards and technology. A great way to build on what students already know with Micro:Bits.
It gets students thinking outside the box. I can teach them or they can work through it on their own. The delivery is very flexible due to how detailed the kit and lessons are.
