Oh my, what an amazing resource! I have been given the task of teaching K through 5th grade reading as a resource during Specials rotation. It has been a challenge. Mrs. Winters’ resources have been a wonderful addition to my program. This writing activity was fun and interesting for my kindergarteners. They thoroughly enjoyed it and completing the research. Love it!
