What Teachers Are Saying About This Showing Vs Telling Writing Strategy Resource:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This resource is everything and more. I love how the PPT slides break down the instruction into small sizable bits, and the examples it provides are great. At the moment, I have only been able to use this with the students I have been tutoring, but I cannot wait to apply it in the classroom! Thank you for putting out such amazing materials!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is a great bundle that contains amazing slides and activities. My students were engaged by both the slides and activities. I will use this for years to come.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is a very useful resource to show pupils how they can improve their writing, lovely ideas and examples to show them how to use improved vocabulary. Loved the exercise choosing showing or telling.
