What teachers have said about this resource:
“I have used them as a station, exit ticket, and bell ringer. My students also love to compete with their peers as we fill in our ‘what's the answer’ whiteboard. I have paired students up, grouped them, and had them work individually on these task cards. They are very versatile!”
"The excerpts allowed my scholars to focus on the skill and not get bogged down with too much text. The short texts could be reread in a short amount of time that led to increased fluency and comprehension."
"Easy to use task cards! Engaging texts with varied questions that ask students to not just identify but analyze author's purpose."
