All my students were so engaged by this activity. My 1st graders really enjoyed it and had no problem glueing the iguana and answering the letter. I did read a book "I wanna iguana" prior to activity.
This package is amazing! I am extremely grateful! This package was recommended on social media and I am extremely happy with it. My students loved this activity and found the graphic organizers extremely helpful. Thank you for an amazing product!
