This was perfect to use to cover our 1st hand/2nd hand accounts standard. I noticed a deficit in my students and needed to review a couple of weeks before state testing. Normally I really research the product before I buy, but was under a time crunch so I purchased it quickly. VERY happy I did! I loved the checklist idea and it truly helped solidify the concept in my student's brains!
