These task cards importantly are 1: aligned to the common core standards, 2: visually engaging and easily read, 3: diverse and can be used with any game in the classroom. They are great for review and can be easily used in conjunction with a fun game like janga or any board game in a center rotation! Great resource and reasonably priced. Thank you <3

This is a great resource. I use it as a daily warm up because our students are struggling with this standard. I loved that it included a lot of unique vocabulary that they would not already know the answers to. I would love for it to have had choices for answers for but I knew it didn’t, just giving an idea! 🙂
