Great resource for my fifth graders when we move to theme. Some are too hard for them to understand, yet they always want to choose them. I would love to be able to reorder them so they can be given the easier ones first, and build their way to the more advanced concepts.

This is an excellent resource to use when teaching proverbs. The students love getting up and moving around. It was interesting to me to see what they know and don’t know. I think we assume a lot about language and our students!
