Buyer Feedback
This activity was truly the best $3 that I have spent on here. At first, it appeared to be a simple task, but when really digging into the activity I realized that I truly had a treasure. My students enjoyed reading both statements and at the end always told me to "drop the microphone". This was a perfect supplement for my lesson. I truly am thankful for this.
