I love the pictures from the stories on the activity sheets. This helps trigger visual pictures in the students minds and further guides their recall of the story elements when working on each activity.
This resource was definitely worth the money, just for the Splat stuff itself! It was easy to use, and my grade 2 students really enjoyed working on the little booklet I made :}
