What educators are saying
My students enjoyed this resource as we worked through the novel Animal Farm. It kept them engaged and reflecting on the explicit and implicit meanings of the novel.
There are a lot of resources out there than claim to be standards-aligned, but in reality, they fall short. These worksheets are absolutely aligned, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for material to use with Animal Farm.
