As a teacher of gifted students, I love and appreciate the time you have taken to create this product. The tasks are exactly the type of rigorous product I've been searching for to tie science into common core! The activities that I can come up with to use these are endless.

Great!
Thank you!
Everything looks fantastic. I will be able to use this with both my gifted and regular ed students!!! Your suggestion to slowly incorporate these ideas into your lesson structure is important to remember. I teach 7th grade, and this is a fantastic resource to help students develop habits of thinking deeply and critically as we move to Common Core.
Thank you for the great feedback. I am happy that you are seeing all the possibilities.

Hello! I just purchased the 3rd Grade Problem and Solution Nonfiction Text Structure Reading Comprehension and the Google links for the Reading Responses and Assessments say that I need permission. I'm opening it in Google Chrome and the Graphic Organizer and Key Word Analyses links work fine. Can you please help? Thank you!
Sorry about that! I fixed it. Thanks for letting me know.
