I was disappointed with this resource as it did not meet my expectations. For instance, it lacked coverage of collective nouns, which I was hoping to find. The content felt repetitive, with the same assessment structure (identify the parts of speech in 10 short sentences) that left the children bored and disengaged. Additionally, it was lacking in explicit instructions. Overall, the material was incomplete and did not justify the cost, especially considering the unfavourable exchange rate with the Australian dollar. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this bundle given its high price and limited value.
<p>Hello, Angie. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. You are correct; this resource does not cover collective nouns as this is not a third-grade standard in the US. I make every effort to communicate exactly what topics are included (which are listed in the description). I have also included detailed thumbnails and preview files for each unit in this bundle to help teachers determine if this resource will be a good fit for them. </p>
The students have been so much more engaged when I have been using this resource. It is easy and simple to do!
The links didn't work. I feel like I wasted my money.
It's not user friendly. I can't seem to open the pdf files to even use. I'm very frustrated.
I was unable to use this product. First, I wasn’t able to print it because it wasn’t made to fit the whole page. The bundle was all the same unavailable to print. Please send me another copy or refund my money. Thank you

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/
