Soar To Success, Paired Passages, Zipping, Zapping, Zooming Bats!
I have been using Soar to Success books with my students for years. Why? Children absolutely love these wonderful, engaging books! Each year I do my best to try and update them so that they stay current with best practices of the times. This year, I’ve decided to go ahead and ALIGN my fourth and fifth grade Soar to Success books with the Common Core. I’m also planning to create several units of PAIRED READING PASSAGES to support my students with the standardized testing in the spring.
