What educators are saying

These are so fun and such a time saver! They are cute and engaging so they are not overwhelming. I use these a few times a week and can see the improvement with my child and their ability to write a story and put their ideas into words.
The topics contained in this resource jumpstarted my students' creativity during writer's workshop. My students really enjoyed coming up with their own narrative stories. Thanks!
