"I love how the program gives my students the chance to get hands-on experience with these basic concepts of science. What a great complement to our NGSS work! AND they learn how to conserve water."

"Wow. What a great program. This was my first time with A Drop in the Bucket, and it's about more than Science. It fit perfectly into our Social Studies unit."
