By participating in the wide variety of activities in the Multiage Differentiated Curriculum Kit for Grades 4-6, students will discover the balance that exists around them and gain a lifelong desire to learn. In this book, students will examine the universal concept of balance from many different and exciting perspectives. Balance in art, government, diet, mathematics, and even elevators will be studied. "Balances", along with the other books in the Multiage Differentiated Curriculum Kit for Grades 4-6 ("Choices", "Explorations", "Questions", and "Viewpoints"), makes teaching advanced learners easier!
