What educators are saying

I use this resource after I do a read aloud with my students after recess. It gets their brains ready to listen and learn again. It also builds their comprehension and listening skills. I see such growth with this - and they literally cheer when they see these sheets come out!
I use this to to build listening skills in a fun way. My students want to make sure that their picture is the same as their neighbors. I project it on the board. I have students come up and explain what needs to colored as he/she points it out. They love it.

    TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID...

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dodie M. says, "My teaching partner and I love this unit to work with our younger ELs. Perfect for listening and following directions - skills our ELs need and scaffolded enough for our kids who are behind due to pandemic situations. We have used a lot. Thank you."

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kaitlyn T. says, "I purchased this product to help with my students listening and following directions- I picked this because my students really enjoy coloring. This was very engaging to my students and I didn’t have any students who were not following directions and showing me our silent signals and responding to my signals."
