WHAT TEACHERS HAVE HAD TO SAY ABOUT THIS UNIT:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Passion for Primary (TpT Seller) says, “I was looking for something different as my author study this year and came upon your unit when looking at Keats as a possibility. I liked what I saw in the preview, but as you know not much can go on the preview. This is so much more that what I thought I was buying. My state standards are quite rigorous in 2nd and this covers every single one of them! I am so happy I bought this and didn’t decide to “come up with something on my own”. Thanks for such a wonderful resource!!!”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amanda P. says, “The kids loved this unit! So much fun and helpful for the author study.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tara G. says, “I bought this before our current situation but it adapted very well in google slides.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Aimee G. says, “Fantastic response sheets and activities for an author study on Ezra!! Thanks!”

I was looking for something different as my author study this year and came upon your unit when looking at Keats as a possibility. I liked what I saw in the preview, but as you know not much can go on the preview. This is so much more that what I thought I was buying. My state standards are quite rigorous in 2nd and this covers every single one of them! I am so happy I bought this and didn’t decide to “come up with something on my own”. Thanks for such a wonderful resource!!!
