This was a good activity, just a few small errors
I really enjoyed using this unit, however on the sketch notes age and shape are swapped. I didn't catch it until after we had taken all of our notes and were practicing.
we need the answer key
enjoying the product but we need the answer key. Please provide answer key with purchase
Some helpful but needs more
Some helpful but needs more for the students to retain
I wish there was a different version available...
I like this resource, however I wish there was a different version with identifying the subject & predicate without diagraming.
I bought this and then realized it was way too hard for my 6th graders. Wishing I had gotten a grade lower.
Organized structure. Good for morning warm ups, but too hard for incoming 6th graders. Wish I could get a refund

Would you consider making a tangram bundle? Also a pattern block bundle and a brain power bundle?
Thanks for reaching out.
I don't create custom bundles because tracking the files to ensure every customer has the latest version of each resource becomes very difficult.
However, I do have a Build-Your-Own- Bundle on my site. You can get the details here: https://teacherthrive.com/byob/
