What educators are saying about WoolWorks!

I like the scholarly approach and the way it’s all tied in to the standards. It is very credible, and obviously written by someone who is passionate about fibers. It was exactly what I needed to do a quality job in teaching the art and science of fibers to children.
–Beth Maurer, K-5 art teacher, Findlay, OH

It is so well organized and easy to read/use…Although the guide is suggested for grades 3-8, I will be using some of the lessons in my Kindergarten class.
–Lisa Masi, Lead teacher and K teacher in K-8 pubic charter school, Andover, NJ

We think the program wonderfully creative. It draws kids closer to real life experience (at least up until the last several decades). It is so beneficial for kids to experience where fibers come from, how they are used, etc. A visit to the mall doesn’t give much information about the connections between earth and its creatures. Also a revelation about how hard it was pre industrial revolution. This stuff can take a lot of effort, time and skill!

It’s visually appealing, chockfull of information, and well organized…Great background information about the science of wool (lanolin, chemical structures, etc.).
–Linda Garrett, grades 3 & 4 public school teacher, Brookfield, VT

It’s comprehensive without being overwhelming for young children. The written lessons are beautifully put together and my students love the map!
–AnnMarrie Aquino, grade 4 public school teacher, New York, NY

I like the range of fiber topics that it covers, and I especially like the map…I will use it when conducting fiber demonstrations and classes at festivals and workshops. Both children and adults who come to these community events will benefit from the information that I am learning from it.
–Betsy Alspach, occupational therapist, Jefferson, MA

Upon review of WoolWorks, I would rate it “Excellent”… I like how well it is organized and the hands-on activities.
–Barbara Reitzig, home school parent, Waymart, PA

Great book!...It’s an introduction into the positive benefits of needlework... They measured, cut and wove! I loved the attention the students gave their work and especially how even my autistic students were able to focus!
–Yvonne Krowka, grades 6-8 private school teacher, Pisgah Forest, NC

It is easy to access, colorfully presented, and well-organized.
–Dina Kageler, K-5 public charter school art teacher, Volcano, HI

It is good for integrating science and social studies at both the elementary and middle school level…good science education support…We find that art draws the interest of elementary students, especially girls.
