Local Communities
New Connections: Level 3
$120.95
Understanding their local communities is a wonderful way for young learners to develop civic engagement and prepare to become active, responsible citizens. With its focus on the climate & geology of the region, infrastructure, jobs, and services, the New Connections Level 3 program builds a greater sense of what creates a community. Informative articles, interactive pages, and multiple hands-on art projects explore everything from dinosaurs to comic book superheroes! This engaging, cross-curricular program will deepen kids’ appreciation for their community, provide an opportunity to make contact with times past, and start thinking of how they can contribute to the welfare, safety, and happiness of others.

Rainforest’s art projects are amazing for my 3rd grade class. Not only do they learn about climate, geography, social studies, and science, but the art strengthens the meaning as well. It's easy for the kids to follow along and every student is fully engaged. My class loves it!

I really loooooooved this program!! It is very easy to follow. My students loved it and got excited every time we used it in class. We were able to finish all five units. The online content was very helpful not only for the students but for myself. I got to watch step by step how to do an art project and then I was able to show my students at a slower pace. I would really love to continue using this for next year.

Students just loved the “Turtles project”, I had a student belt out every so often “I love TURTLES!” while he was coloring.
