On each task card it has a picture that correlates with the activity and an I can statement. For example, "I can spell words using magnetic letters." The task cards do not have steps on them. Thanks for the question!

Nanswin re: 2nd Grade Differentiated Reading Street Spelling Homework Unit 1 (ocean theme)
I am using the 2011 edition. Is there a way to get the story titles for each unit so I can see how much overlap there is and then decide if it's worth purchasing the packet? If only 1-2 stories match, it's not a good idea, but if 1-2 stories are mismatched, that is different.
Thanks

When you download the Unit 1 freebie, the title of each story is at the top of each page. I would download the Unit 1 freebie and take a look at each story in your Unit 1 teaching manual to see how close they match up.

Here is a list of each story:
Unit 1
Iris and Walter
Exploring Space with an Astronaut
Henry and Mudge and the Starry Night
A Walk in the Desert
The Strongest One

Unit 2
Tara and Tiree, Fearless Friends
Ronald Morgan Goes to Bat
Turtle's Race with Beaver
The Bremen Town Musicians
A Turkey for Thanksgiving

Unit 3
Pearl and Wagner
Dear Juno
Anansi Goes Fishing
Rosa and Blanca
A Weed is a Flower

Unit 4
The Quilt Story
Life Cycle of a Pumpkin
Frogs
I Like Where I Am
Helen Keller and the Big Storm

Unit 5
Firefighter!
One Dark Night
Bad Dog, Dodger
Horace and Morris but Mostly Delores
The Signmaker's Assistant

Unit 6
Just Like Josh Gibson
Red, White, and Blue
A Birthday Basket for Tia
Cowboys
Jingle Dancer

I am curious myself to know how closely they correlate since our district is adopting a new reading program for next year. After you download the freebie below and check your teacher manual to see how closely they correlate, would you mind letting me know how similar the two editions are? Thanks so much!

What the difference between the Castle Quest and the Pirate Place Value? I was trying to decide if I need to purchase both or just one. Wasn't sure if they have the same activities with just different themes?

Sorry I got back to you so late. TPT was performing maintenance on the site at this time so I didn't get notification of someone having a question.
Castle Quest Place Value Game is a board game designed to play in partners or math stations. Pirate Place Value is leveled task cards to use in small groups or as a scoot game review (It also comes with an activity sheet for each level). Please let me know if you have any other questions.

It is from the 2008 edition of Reading Street. You can see a sample of the first unit below to see if the stories and spelling words are the same ones you use. They are the same spelling words for Unit 1, but have an ocean theme instead of a student theme. Let me know if you have any other questions.

I am so glad that you like them! I originally created them so I could have a cute game for my students to practice their spelling/phonics patterns each week. Thanks for telling your friends about my game boards! You rock! :)
