RATING/REVIEW:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"LOVE this 'gentle pertinent reminder' for students especially when laminated and displayed in the class!!"

This is what I showed my students (2nd grade) on their final draft day for writing recipes. Just project it, point to each item, and have them read it. Then, keep it up as they write to reference.

Because of how it is uploading, you may have to re-format some things.

*This is an older product. I've kept it active because it still provides generally the quality I hope to provide. I appreciate the grace as I've improved my store since starting out!
