This is a great resource. It has the posters, which I love! And it has the task cards also. It is a great help when trying to teach this lesson.

This was worth every penny!! After completing our genres of literature unit this was an excellent assessment tool. I had students complete a walk the room activity where they recorded their answers. I graded those and marked the ones that were incorrect and then the next day had them try again to use logic to determine which of the remaining three was correct. The students LOVED it and there is such a wide range of task cards!
