Here's what other teachers say about this To Kill a Mockingbird Bundle:

❤️️ This was a lifesaver this year as I taught TKaM. I loved being able to use this in my classroom. The resources are organized, connect to the reading, easy to follow, and has EVERYTHING you need to teach the novel. Worth every penny! - Shannannagans

❤️️ This unit has been a lifesaver as I am teaching two novels to individualize instruction in my middle school classroom. From the historical articles and background information to the varied literary analysis in each chapter section, I am grateful! Thank you. - Theresa M. 

❤️️ This was amazing - didn't get to use every piece included, because there is a lot (which I LOVED), but the comprehension questions/quizzes/character matching was amazing. The extra grammar/skillset practice was awesome, as well! - Haley M.

❤️️ Hands down probably my best purchase on TPT as Speech Language Pathologist! I can work every middle school goal using literature and this packet! Thank you! - Drill the Skill

❤️️ Excellent product…this is BY FAR one of the best products I have purchased on TPT. Engaging lessons, integrated all sorts of different standards (figurative language, etc), and the kids have loved the activities, articles, etc included. If you need an excellent unit, with more than enough material...that is ready to go, this is it! LOVE!!! Stacey L.

❤️️ Simply Novel resource guides are packed full of lessons that address key elements necessary to decode and comprehend literature. You can NEVER go wrong with any of their products!! - Jayne W.

❤️️ This product has strong, actual common core alignment, which is not always easy to find for ELA! It is rigorous and truly supported students' understanding of the material as we read the book. I used it both for in-class work and selected some questions to use as homework to get them thinking about the next class's focus skills. Thank you! - Erin C.
