    Hear from other teachers just like you...

    "My remote learning firsties are writing sentences and stories! They KNOW adjectives and adverbs. The UNDERSTAND character, setting, problems, solutions and added details! I LOVE this unit. I've stretched it out and we are having SO MUCH FUN with the repetitive story map and ability to add adjectives and write stories. HONESTLY - it's an excellent writer's workshop format. I will purchase other products from her. I didn't use the video lessons like I thought - but used all the material. I WILL use her video lessons a bit more when in person. Well done." - (1st grade Resource Teacher)

    "This is my favorite!!!! Each unit is perfectly thought out with warm up questions, activities, lessons, reviews, assessments. Plenty of visuals to print and put on the wall. Fun ways to teach and explore their learning. Seriously awesome!" (1st grade Teacher)

    "My writing curriculum had from the school was lacking so much. This is helping me teach writing to my students and I know by the end of the year they will be have made so much progress." (1st Grade Teacher)
