What educators are saying

My kids loved task cards. They were up moving, and then we’d turn the review into a game for prizes. It was a great product and very well received by my kids! Thanks!
These are a great review for my intervention groups. I am always looking for quick and easy ways to teach the skill of text structure.

Kim Kroll Task Card Bundle

These cards are an easy way to check student comprehension, but can be used in many more ways. Try them as Entrance Tickets, Exit Tickets, Differentiation, or Homework… They might also be used as a springboard for discussion of how the author accomplishes his/ her purpose.

One of my favorite ways to use is as follows:

Make copies of each slide, but do not cut apart. Each student will answer all four items on one page. The next day, as students enter the room, they will receive the next page. Continue until all answers are completed. On the fifth day, students pair up and check answers. Give students time to re-read any passages that received a different answer from their partner. Turn in for a grade.

Have students write on the task cards- or the provided answer sheets.
