This resource has a lot of potential but I found it a little difficult for my grade 4 students. Thanks.
Do not buy this resource if you are looking for an easy, pre-made system. I had to create copies of every single lesson (10 each) in every single unit (20 total). This took me more than 2 hours JUST TO MAKE COPIES AND PUT THEM IN MY DRIVE. It was not clear that this was what you had to in order to use this format.
Once set up, this resource worked really well! I do like the google forms and they look very professional! I have used these in my classroom and the students do seem to enjoy them.
This started a bridge of seeing how language is formed.
The resource was really amazing; the material itself was on target. It is VERY helpful to have it formatted electronically. BUT...there is no question for "What is your name?". So, a time stamp (wonderfully!) appears on the spreadsheet, but I do not know who submitted the work. Maybe I can fix this without going in and adding a question to each set and a column to every spreadsheet. I would love a solution that won't take me hours. I have already uploaded levels 3-5 for the entire year on Schoology.
Some of these were WAY too hard for starting patterns with my grade 2 kiddos... I only cut and took what I could use with them. Wish this was google slide interactive!
