    This resource was wonderful for whole group instruction when projected on the whiteboard.

  96. 3rd Grade’s uh Charm –

    I had my students work on this activity in the attempt to create a fun Halloween themed day and much to my satisfaction it worked. I had my students working in teams by placing them in google meet break out rooms and presented it as a challenge. Whatever team was the first to solve and come back to the main call were the winners. Every time I popped in and out of the groups it was clear the the kids were into the activity, it was a good feeling to hear them citing text to defend their answers. Thank you for creating this activity!

  105. Hannah F. –

    This was a fun way to introduce my students to inferencing at the beginning of the year. When they were introduced to it in this fun format and realized that inferring is a lot like looking for clues like a detective, they grasped the concept much easier.

  106. Sandra M. –

    This lesson was excellent as a sub needed to start the lesson and the students were engaged and talking about their answers! I can not wait to use it again next year!
