I really like the printed worksheets, so I thought the digital would be great to use since I've needed to teach in person and have online work as well for the last couple of years. I wanted to like the entire product, but the activities are the printed worksheets simply scanned in with a Google form as an add-on. The Google Form is not student-friendly because it's difficult to answer or students have to go back and forth to get the question and answer. Unfortunately, this means I paid for this resource, but still have to create my own resource for my students so it's more user-friendly.
It is an excellent resource except I don't have access to PowerPoint. I struggle with getting it aligned in google sheets. I am considering the bundle though.
This was one of the best resources I purchased last school year. It hit all the standards that I needed students to learn and practice on a consistent basis.
My students loved using the reading passages in class.
While I was very excited to see this Depth and Complexity activity for Hatchet, my GATE students and I often found it difficult. Some sections really seemed like a stretch getting the question/story to match the depth and complexity icon/prompt. A great idea, but needs a bit of tweaking to be more user friendly. Thank you!

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.
