  • 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.

What’s included

  • Google Slides version with movable number tiles
  • Student recording sheet

Depth and Complexity Critical Thinking Literature Circles Book Clubs
Lisa Maria M.

And once again: A+ - seriously!
Always wanted to try literature circles in order to avoid dull class reader work and now I am certain I can (as a very young teacher I wasn't quite sure how to go about it). All thanks to your material.

Depth and Complexity Critical Thinking Task Cards for Literature
Lisa Maria M.

WOW!
Can I give you an A+ for this?
Absolutely amazed! The material is not only pretty but really encourages students to work with their books/stories in detail and I love how some of the tasks ask them to make connections to the real world. In my opinion, this is particularly relevant in regard to the great number of dystopian YAF currently on the market. Thanks again for this great resource. can't wait to try it out.

Hello-
I purchased your Time to Tile resource on Ordering Decimals. Did I misunderstand? I thought the resource includes the printable and digital versions. I'm having trouble finding the digital version link. I've purchased many of these on your website and didn't have a problem finding the link. Thanks for your response.
