This was used before our state testing on the unit "Out of the Dust" and my special education students LOVED. It provided a great review of materials learned during the unit and worked very well with World Book Enclyclopedia's entry on the Dust Bowl. They were so confident after this! Thanks for providing an activity in which they could be successful.

I used this resource as a "seek and find" exit ticket. Students had to go around the room and answer questions at the end of our Dust Bowl unit. I used the multiple choice cards for my 5th graders and the blank question cards for my 7th graders. Both worked wonderfully!
