Calliope mini class set

The Calliope mini class set is specially designed for primary and secondary schools, as well as workshops and extracurricular group work.

We have currently developed two class sets with slightly different focuses. Both class sets are equally applicable in the classroom, even for different grade levels. Thus, it is rather an individual decision of the respective teachers which class set is chosen. The basis of both class sets is identical and the various additional materials are also available separately.
You can always - according to your needs - make one class set into the other or make your own. Calliope mini class sets can be purchased from Cornelsen Experimenta:
