What Teachers Are Saying About The Short Story and Novel Assignments (Vol 2):

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I have volume 1, and when I saw she posted volume 2, I knew that I HAD to have it. These are so wonderful to pull from and just print and go at any time during a novel study, independent read, or book club setting. Love, love, love!!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Creative and engaging! I can easily find assignments to fit any book we are reading. Students are able to show their understanding of the book without the formal book report.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ As a Grades 6-8 LA/SS Teacher, I've never been so impressed with a such a modular resource; I'm excited to see how I fit these into my every day and will be invaluable on sick/filler days/classes. Thanks PP!
