⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My students struggle with all aspects of reading and this resource offers practice with a nice variety of skills in a very motivating way - especially on their Chromebooks as the pictures magically appear with each correct answer. Although we have to read the passages together my students are excited to try answering the questions on their own. Thank you! –Karen G.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I used the Connecting Words and Pictures worksheet this morning for my students morning work. It was easy enough that I could give it to them without a lot of instruction, but not so easy that they breezed through it. They had to stop and think and consider. I cannot wait to use the others and see how my students thinking/reading process grows. –Rebecca C.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I have ALL of the 4/5 bundles of Mystery Pictures…thank you for creating a lower level set. This allows me to differentiate and personalize learning for all of my kiddos. Another great resource, Thanks! –Terra C.
