What teachers are saying...

These tools have been a lifesaver! It breaks everything down into understandable chunks to help students expand on and organize their ideas. My students feel so proud of their work and want to show it to everyone! The classroom teachers have been really impressed by their work using these models.

My students thought these were SO fun! The resource required little prep and was easy to implement in the classroom. My students are always excited to use them.

The Informational Writing unit is an incredible resource! The graphic organizers were clear and guided my students through planning their writing effectively. The sample texts provided great models, making it easier for students to understand key elements of informational writing. Highly recommend for any third-grade classroom!
