All of my book companion units are organized in a before, during, and after reading format. I try to include ways to use the books as a mentor text for both comprehension and writing. In this unit, the written component is a procedural text. Amazing Grace is truly a must use book in grades 3-5 because of the themes of perseverance, confidence, and inclusivity.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rachelle W. says, “My students loved this resource. They were very engaged and had fun in the process. I used this resource for more than one grade and was able to differentiate it to meet the needs of all the students I service. I used it for whole group as well as small group instructions.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Terra Carney says, “I purchased this resource to supplement a literature unit that was focused on something different but incorporated the book “Amazing Grace” into it. My students really identified with Grace so I decided to diver further into the character and found this resource. I love it, and will definitely be using it again in years to come! It is thorough and the fact that it covers both reading and writing objectives is a huge benefit!”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Morgan G. says, “Loved using this product! It was effective and fun for all!”
