WHAT TEACHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT NOVEL STUDIES BY ELLE MADISON:
Absolutely loved this resource! It is evident that a lot of time and effort was put into creating this and my students comprehension was reflective in the work they completed. I love that they were able to view this book from various standpoints and do more than simply read the book! – P.T.
I needed something for my flex groups so we could follow along while reading the book. This is exactly what I needed: something quick and easy to print off and put together that covers necessary skills painlessly. – B.B.
This is such a great product! It was very useful and helpful with my small group instruction. There's enough items to use that will last a long time. Thank You! – S.H.
This does not deserve an "A" rating; it deserves an "A+++"! This is one of the best purchases I have made on TPT! Very well thought out and put together. Thank you so much!!! – A.B.
This was great because it saves me time when looking for relevant book study related work. Thanks! – M.V.
Great alternative to Google Classroom- students have to take ownership of their reading comprehension! – C.B.
