- 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.
- Give students meaningful independent practice or have partners explain and compare their thinking.
- Save paper by reusing printed cards and having students record their answers on a separate sheet.

I can not get this file to download and I am so disappointed as I really want to use it. It will only copy the first couple pages and that is it.
This is not a spiral review. The weekly content has standards that have not yet been covered. Students can't have homework on things that they haven't learned yet.

Unfamiliar content presents a great opportunity for you to build background knowledge and assess where your students are before you even teach a specific lesson.</p><p>The best way to use this spiral reveiw is to begin with whole-group lessons where you model and discuss each activity. I don't worry too much if there haven't been formal lessons on a particular concept; I treat those items more as a preview.

There is a problem with this resource. I purchased the digital version. However, there is no link for me to click on that gives me access to the documents virtually. I'm reaching out to the seller, please provide some guidance or refund me if possible? Thank you so much.
It was a good resource, but the inability to make any edits in the .PDF made sharing it digitally with the class nearly impossible. Very disappointed with this aspect. Good resource but this is a glaring issue.
The content was too hard for third grade. There needs to be a build in content and foundation. The skills were way over most of my students heads.
Also this is a rip off to not include the answer key with the questions. Why are you having people buy two separate things.

I am interested in purchasing some of your tiling sets, but I have a question. Does each set contain 30 different puzzles or do they contain 15 different puzzles which are provided in both black/white and color? Thank you for your time. The sets look great!
Hi Dana, thanks for your question! Each set contains 30 completely different cards.
