⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Loved the differentiation of the activity. Most of my scholars used the pictures along with the labels. We hve not used the written sentences yet but I look forward to using them in the near future.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This resource was fantastic! I was able to use it with a few different groups of students in first grade after watching the teaching video. They really liked the pictures and the simple, interesting stories. It was easy to move the pieces to the correct spots. I really liked the two levels of stories, so that I could use it with mixed-level groups. I will be able to use this multiple times with the same students, which makes planning really easy! Thanks so much!
