Perfect for Centers or Small Groups
July 06, 2022 - By Melva Childressfrom Crawfordsville, Indiana
This game is great when putting students in small groups or using it as a center. Students easily understand the directions and are able to do the activity with little supervision while I’m working with other students.
Yes, I would recommend this product.

Great game for listening or reading for details
February 17, 2020 - By BJfrom Arlington, WA
My students love this game. Older students read the cards themselves and my younger students listen to me read the cards. Both groups have to read/listen carefully for the details on each card building good listening and reading skills.
Yes, I would recommend this product.

Awesome!
July 23, 2016 - By DJMamaRockfrom Chicago, near South Loop
This game is really helpful, because it gives both fiction and nonfiction stories. My child always picks fictional stories. It really helped that it was part of the game, so she was more willing to make an effort.
