- Build flexible thinking as students follow different clues and try more than one strategy.
- Practice perseverance and build confidence by revising a choice when the first idea doesn’t fit.

- Save paper by reusing printed cards and having students record their answers on a separate sheet.

Beautifully Made
I love this and so does my class - it's a bit more fun than the mundane comprehension style worksheets that are more common for learning Morphology. This makes students engage both sides of their brain and get a bit creative too - I strongly believe it helps them retain the information better.
Great Resource
This has helped my student tremendously. Thank you!
Great resource
This makes planning easy and the kids are engaged.
Growth and Revisiting
This helped my students so much because it consistently revisited important skills, but also helped with preteaching skills in advance.
Wonderful Unit
I absolutely love this unit on Coordinating Conductions. Would purchase again.
