What educators are saying

I like the variety of comprehension passages, poetry writing, and fluency activities to use during whole group or in small groups.
These were wonderful to use with my small reading groups. I enjoy playing the games with my small groups while my other students work on some of the other work (comprehension, independent center work, etc). Great resource!
