Teacher Feedback

1. "The variety of card types will really help to make this activity useful with my Intermediates. Because they're so professional, I know that my "big kids" will buy into using them. Thanks!"
2. "I love that these cards are both practical and engaging. They serve a real need in my classroom, but they also keep students on their toes and add a bit of humor (the radio code is particularly funny to me). Thanks so much!"
3. "I really liked this product. I used it during the last month of school as I had my students changing seats almost every day. This was a creative way to create a seating plan and it really got my students thinking to solve which pieces went with one another."
4. "Students enjoyed the flexible seating choices. Fun way to mix it up. Liked the small and large card options."
