What educators are saying

I loved using this resources as it breaks down each aspect of writing a paragraph into individual sentences. I find that my students are really struggling with the writing process and this has helped keep them on track.
Helpful resource to supplement my lessons. My students were engaged, and we have fun working through the videos and practice tasks.
