Here's what teachers like you have to say about using these analogy activities with their students:

⭐️ Megan B. said, "Analogies really stumped my kiddos. This bundle helped them so much as we were able to practice this skill in many different ways! I recommend Deb Hanson to everyone I know! They include a wide variety of independent check-in possibilities, partner work and the most fun "craftivities"! My kids look forward to these craftivities with every unit!"

⭐️ Sarah J. said, "I regularly ask students to write and complete analogies using our vocabulary words, so I was looking for a way to introduce analogies to them. This product definitely fits the bill. The PowerPoint presentation really breaks information down and does a great job of walking students step-by-step through writing and completing analogies. There are gobs of practice as well. Very helpful resource!"

⭐️ Jaclyn J. said, "These resources were excellent to use to introduce and practice analogies! My students had a good understanding of analogies using these resources."

⭐️ Paulette B. said, "I LOVE this! I was able to leave the PowerPoint for a sub to introduce analogies to my students. We are following up with matching and "I have who has" to review before state testing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!"

⭐️ Lauren N. said, "I used this at the end of the year to get my 5th graders excited for 6th grade. They loved this unit!"
