⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ As a first year teacher, I must admit that I buy so much of your work. This lesson is fantastic. It created such a wonderful discussion with my students. Even the students that sometimes do not like to speak up in class, had something engaging to say in the group discussion. Thank you very much.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is will be great practice for my 8th graders with close reading and reading comprehension. I am going to put these in my sub binder for use on those unexpected absences.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The students are very engaged in these texts and I thought they'd burn through the questions, but they take there time and work on them appropriately. I great set of worksheets.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ These are perfect for those sub days. Easy and yet engaging assignments for my students to do on their own!
