Here’s what teachers are saying:

✏️ “I have an extremely active group this year that thrives from scaffolded, differentiated instruction/activities, so I knew this resource was perfect for my students. My reluctant learners seemed to do well with completing one task card at a time, instead of seeing ALL of the work ahead of them on a worksheet. I varied the number of task cards I assigned students based on practice they needed at the time.” -Sarah P.

✏️ “Great examples to use to teach making connections. I used these in small group instruction and students enjoyed responding to these task cards.” -Sarah H.

✏️ “My students use this as comprehension task cards for Reading Groups. The texts are great for their reading level and they love this activity!” -Cui Yean T.
