I created this product because I had a 45-minute class period to teach literature, writing, grammar, and vocabulary in a differentiated classroom. My 8th-grade students had a wide range of abilities and backgrounds in English. I needed a way to cover multiple skills in a short amount of time. I also need a way to review and practice the small skills my students needed to succeed on their writing assignments. I hope this product helps you, too!
