I love your units! I notice in Unit 4, lesson 10 is incomplete. Do you have that part? Thanks for making my transition to workshop SO much easier!

Are all of your lessons related to specific books? If so, are these lessons editable to use with other books?

I recommend books that I have used in my lessons, however,you can use any story that lends itself to the lessons in this unit. I hope this helps!
