We engage in various reading activities daily, our curriculum does provide the stories but they need to be printed. To maximize time and supplies, we generated independent reading workbook containing all of the stories! Also created various leveled comprehension workbooks for student to practice identifying text evidence to answer questions. \r\n\r\nThe colorful, bubble-shaped dry erase mats are a huge motivational boost!
