FAQs

Are answer keys included?

Yes. The answer keys are included as the last pages of the resource download.

Do all the activity worksheets need to be completed all at once, or can I split it up?

You could certainly split this up into multiple days/activities. Especially with the long resources. Some activities are easy to split into three “activities”. First, cold read (could be a partner read) w/vocab and multiple choice questions. Second, re-read and summary page. Third, choose one writing activity. You could even do stations. Maybe partner read first, then one station does the vocabulary and summary page. Another station could do the multiple choice, and you could do a teacher-led station with one writing prompt. Then, you can have a fourth station independently write the other prompt. Of course, you know your students better than I do! These are just some ideas!! I try to section out the activities, so you have the freedom to make it work for you!

Is a digital version included?

Yes, all resources within this product line includes a digital version that uses Google Apps.

What is the Lexile level of your reading passages?

Since Lexile is trademarked, I am unable to label them as Lexile levels. However, I have used the free Lexile analyzer and I stay within the recommended grade level range. If there is a specific reading packet that you need details for, please contact me directly and I’ll give you a more specific range.

I just purchased a resource, but I didn’t get it (or can’t find it).

If you got the email and clicked on the link but can’t find the file, check your downloads folder. The link provided is a FORCE DOWNLOAD link, so it will automatically download to your computer once clicked. Typically this will go to your downloads folder or your desktop, unless otherwise set.
