Here's what teachers & homeschoolers say about this Language Spiral: 

♥  Can I just say WOW! This is such a great resource and it serves my writing class as a great bellringer and skills builder. It is interactive and allows the students to become more familiar with Google slides. Loving this and is worth every penny! - Alfonso M. 

♥ This is amazing! We have covered so many different topics already this year that it took forever to get to last year. Thank you! - Mary S.  

♥ Other morning work I have purchased takes my students too long to complete. My school serves breakfast, which takes some students a while to finish, and it always seems like I have a thousand things to do in the morning. I love how this resource offers the chance to review essential skills without taking 20 minutes. Thanks!! - Hannah N. 

♥ This resource has been fantastic to use with my students in distance learning. I am so impressed with the formatting of the slides. I love how the concepts are reinforced M-F. I use these daily as warm-ups for ELA. They have also helped me identify some areas that my students needed more support in, such as understanding parts of speech, that I might not have known about had we not done these daily warm-ups. I will be using these with my class again next year even though we will be in person! – Nicole H.
