⭐Bookmarks to print with each strategy and a short description of the strategy.
⭐BUILD-YOUR-OWN Bookmarks - Each strategy is formatted to be printed on a sheet of 30 to a page address labels. Now you can create customized bookmarks.
⭐Popsicle stick toppers which are perfect to use during Guided Reading time.
⭐Mini Cards that are perfect to go on a ring and be added to your Guided Reading tool kit or to have for adults who do withdrawal with your students.
