Trend Weather Watch Bulletin Board Set Review by Jennifer Pepito
Trend Enterpriseshttp://www.trendenterprises.com/
If you're looking for ways to get your kids excited about earth science, the Trend Weather Watch set is a great reinforcement. It includes a large map of North America, a water cycle poster, clouds poster, and large-sized weather picture cards as well as weather symbols. There are 84 weather symbols made of vinyl cling to stick to the map. This kit allows you to be a home weather person. These symbols illustrate simple concepts such as sunny and cloudy as well as more advanced weather concepts like high pressure and cold front. It also includes a thermometer (you set the temperature) and a six-page discovery guide with clear instructions as well as science experiments related to weather. We are all enjoying a closer look at weather and its impact on our environment with the help of this valuable kit.
Note from the Publishers of The Old Schoolhouse® Magazine:
We think this catalog company is superb! Trend Enterprises is a fantastic company to turn to for fun, educational products. They sent us a number of excellent wall posters that are incredibly colorful (they are all over our kitchen!), like a multiplication tables chart, a punctuation chart, a digestion chart, and more. The posters are large, colorful, and cheery looking. I had no problem putting them up on our wall as "décor." Not only that, many of you have probably used their Bingo games. They make several versions and we've quite a few of them. I love Trend's Sight Word Bingo best! Trend is awesome!
