- 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.

Loved the resource but please change the answer for C and D around for the practice assessment number 4. Ick is the answer but that is letter D and my students picked up on the bad word it made.
Several Errors
I haven't used this product in a long time and as I was going through it, I found several errors. There are 2 choices or wrong choices in quite a few. I would suggest that you go through all of them to see if there are 2 options that are both correct and a few of them have the answers in the wrong order.
I was looking forward to using this resource. I was disappointed to find that although it claims to be for a full week, it is actually only 4 pages per week. If I want to use the 5th day resource, it requires purchasing yet another product by the creator. That should be stated up front. I am now forced to decide to either waste my money and not use the product at all, or spend even more money for the day 5 activities.
I didn't find this resource made for distance teaching. It's more like the other products made for in-person teaching. I was not really happy with the purchase, because I thought that with the title it was more complete in the PowerPoint when it was not.
This resource was a bit complicated and I did not feel that it made it easy to use for 5th grade. I used it a few times, but I wish it would be 100% aligned with common core requirements, which I feel it was not
