What educators are saying

I realized early on in the year that my students needed writing practice. This format allows my students to gather evidence from the picture observations. They are then able to come up with questions and inferences. These steps have helped focus their scientific writing.
This is a great morning warm-up for students of ALL abilities. I also like that I can edit these slides with sentence starters or vocabulary. My students enjoy the pictures and come up with very interesting ideas! Thank you!

Printing Notes:

While I recommend printing in color and laminating materials for future use, it is not necessary. These materials print just fine in grayscale. I would suggest printing "as image" to avoid any potential issues. Additionally, download the resource to your computer, open it, and then print. Printing from your browser often creates problems.
