Great opportunity to ready & respond
The passages were relevant and well written. They gave my students great opportunities to read, engage, and respond.
Great resource and helpful time saver! I enjoyed this product!

Well done activity
I am planning on working on the first word root BIO with my students and having the students talk about which work samples are strong and weak. They should be be prepared to do strong work when we do these again. I can pull them out for a substitute or when we just need a quiet independent lesson.
Love All Things Created
Everything is organized in a way that makes it easy to use, and it has saved me a great deal of planning time. I truly appreciate the thought and effort that went into creating such a high-quality resource. Thank you!
Digital kids that need help visualizing!!!
This year was eye-opening when I started teaching volume. I realized that this group of 5th graders were iPad kids!! Rarely playing with blocks/Legos in their early childhood development years. So sad! They really could not “see” that these were 3 dimensional shapes until I had them build with blocks and use these sketch notes! Wild!!
