What educators are saying

This was the perfect resource to reinforce understanding of the skill. I let them work with a partner and they appreciated that so they can check on each other. The coloring component is always a bonus and I use it as extra credit as not everyone loves to color. Thanks!
Good review resource after the area unit. I wanted an activity to share with parents at open house. This worked nicely.
