Originally reviewed on TPTMinor drawbacks to this
I had high hopes for this. However, I do not think it is truly scaled back enough for Kindergarten. If the research could be redone to be more decodable then I think this product would be wonderful. However, I do think it allowed me to introduce research to the students and they were able to grasp that. I wish it could have been done more independently.
