TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID…
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mrs O Knows (TpT Seller) says, “Your partner scripts are the perfect solution for our read to a partner rotation. Since not all of my students are reading on level, I am always looking for resources that are on the level of my struggling readers. These are perfect because they are on their level, and they look forward to the reading and the activities that they can complete with their partner. I even have students who are reading on higher levels asking if they can do them too. That is a wonderful problem to have and shows just how fabulous this resource is. Thank you!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Patricia B. says, “My students loved these plays!”
