This document is fabulous. It is perfect for differentiated instruction. I love that I can teach the same text structure to all of my students, yet meet them at the appropriate text level. I feel that I got so much for my money. Thank you for this wonderful, common core aligned resource.

It all started with Emily's Text Structure Power Points and, now, yet another fabulous resource to help my students truly understand this particular text structure! Uh-oh! I'm running out of fabulous, fantastic, wonderful, helpful, useful adjectives to describe Emily's work in these feedback ratings. :-)

Hello! Most problems were resolved with the last upload. Could you let me know if the problem is with unzipping the folder, or is it with individual items? I would be happy to email you items either way. Please write to me at elkissn@yahoo.com. Thanks!

I have LOVED all of the resources you have put up. My teammate is a huge fan and I have quickly become one as well. I purchased the Cause and effect product, but it will not open as other have. I even tried to download it a second time but am having the same problems. What suggestions do you have? My email is ldespain@jeffco.k12.co.us. Thanks so much!

Hello,
I love what you have to offer but I am having trouble downloading your product. I see that I need an unzipping program on my PC. When I click the link it sends me to a website. Will I be able to download your product here or do I need to purchase an unzipping program? My email is tjwad31@yahoo.com

TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Subject Area:
When I can't find what I want for my classroom, I create it myself. I always have a camera in hand, ready to record my experiences to create engaging articles to share with my students. You'll see my favorite places in my PowerPoints and teaching packs! Besides writing for TpT, I have also written two books on the topic of teaching reading: Summarizing, Paraphrasing, and Retelling and The Forest AND the Trees: Helping Readers Identify Details in Texts and Tests.
