Have you ever wished that you could just click a button and have everything you need for a week's worth of high-quality instruction? Has your district just adopted the new Benchmark Advance reading program and all your old files are now out of date? Are the 15-20 minute time suggestions proving to be unrealistic for you too? If so, then this presentation is for you! I have taken the time and effort to digitally recreate EVERYTHING you need to teach the third week of Unit 6, "Making Decisions." Every reading lesson, every writing lesson, spelling, and more--all made visual! Your instruction will be seamless and efficient, and the children will be focused and on task! And for you, your planning time is now just one click away! Honestly, you will not be disappointed. The Unit 6 Week 3 lessons included are:

Please take the time to check out the preview: see what you think, although the preview comes no where near to showing the quality you will receive. With close to 400 slides filled with images, charts, graphics, and actual text passages; I think you will find the product worth the investment; not only financially, but also in the tremendous amount of time you will save both in and out of the classroom for years and years to come!

Warmly,
