TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Campbell Creates Readers says, "I have never spent so much money on something off of TPT, but I can honestly say it was worth every penny. The passages are incredible, and the accompanying activities are perfect. My only suggestion would be to include some multiple-choice comprehension questions, since the majority of what my kiddos will see on their SOL (VA is not a Common Core State), is going to be multiple-choice. That being said, however, this is an absolutely perfect resource to use for close reading. I love that it has the Lexile Levels for each passage. I cannot say enough good things about how thoughtful the activities are that have been provided. Thank you!"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Christi S. says, "Love these! I am a special education teacher and this is exactly what I need for my small group reading class. Many people talk about the cost, but it is only a dollar a week! Can't wait to use them with my kids. You are making my planning so much easier."

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rachel J. says, "This was an investment for me but I know that it will be worth it! I have been looking for meaningful and engaging work for my students to do while I'm pulling my intervention groups and this is it! I only wish that I had purchased it sooner! Thank you for working so hard to create and share such amazing products!"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Party in 4th says, "I was a little worried about the price, but once I bit the bullet I'm in LOVE! This was definitely worth the money and an amazing purchase and product. Thank you for all of your hard work! I cannot wait to use these with my class next year and you just made my life so much easier. I'm sure this took you forever! Thank you for your hard work."

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Blair S. says, "This has been one my favorite purchases. I also want to add that I use this for my special educations students. They have a hard time staying with a book and doing the reading log that their age peers do, and this has helped them with completion. Parents have also expressed that getting them to read every night has not been an issue either. I use them for fluency checks weekly as well. My general education teacher has also used them with other students who struggle to stay in a book. Overall, this is perfect for all types of readers!"
