I used these with fifth graders before. I tried using this with my seventh graders but it was way too difficult and unclear for them.
The terminology on the task cards were confusing not only for me, but for my students. I put the booklets together, as instructed, which the students liked. However, there were not any directions on the pages. I found students were constantly asking me what to write on each page. I think this is a great idea to use with a student selected novel, but I think it needs directions. If I use this again with another class, I feel I will have to type my own directions to include with each page to better direct the students.
Hi Sheila. There is a teacher’s guided that explains how each page should be completed. Please let me know if for some reason your file is missing this section.
Standard is not addressed.
I like this resource. I think it could be better if everything that should be included in notes is provided rather than an instruction to write another example under the flap- give me the example. Also, the cutting is pretty involved, so keep that in mind when planning for time.
My final suggestion/request is for the seller to create worksheets that corrolate with each lesson. That would make this a more complete resource.
My students love these articles
