WHAT OTHER TEACHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THIS LITERATURE RESOURCE
♥ This is the second unit I have purchased from Created for Learning, and I am not disappointed! I love how my students recognize the same types of creative and clear templates with a new unit/material. It makes teaching a
new unit a lot easier, too, since I am already familiar with the unit I purchased before. THANK YOU for helping me out!!! 🙂
♥ I used this resource with my 8th grade honors class, and while I did not use every resource, the resources we did complete were fantastic. My students really enjoy the pre-reading bias activities included in your novel units, and the thought-provoking quick writes. The Shadrack game and hymn analysis really added depth to our reading and made the Shadrack scene so much more fun.
♥ THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! This saved me hoursssss of prep work. It is so well thought out, and hits all of the standards that I needed for my novel unit. You guys are my absolute favorite to buy novel units from, especially since now we have 1:1 technology at my school, and ya’ll have made these novel units into google drive friendly units! YES!
♥ This is the third unit I have bought from you and I cannot wait to dive into it! I have had great success with previous ones and I anticipate that this one will be just the same! Thanks!
♥ Just the resource I was looking for to start my novel study this year. I know these activities will be engaging and make novel study more fun and interesting for my students!
♥ This unit has everything. My kids enjoyed the pre-reading bias activity.
