[eMINTS] eMINTS Digest, Vol 41, Issue 33Edwards, Jane edwards at WMR1.K12.MO.USTue Jan 29 07:55:57 CST 2008
Hi to all, I have had two sample copies of Buckledown two different years. This year the sample had questions very similar to released items that were on the early science MAP tests and I have copies of those. But if you do not have access to old released items, it would probably be a good source of questions and answers.

I have shown it to a class of 5th graders before and had excellent discussions. I have also shared it with my own children ages 2nd grade-7th grade. It is a movie that not only shows compassion and history together, but how ONE person can make a difference. I would highly recommend it.
