What are teachers like you saying about this French reading program?

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "We read the text as a class and then read each sentence individually asking questions about what the sentence means and what the words are. I always started my morning with this as it allowed students to get focused and ready to learn. Also, after having done many together, I would then have the students do one alone and use it as assessment. They would get feedback and we would continue again to work on the readings together, then another assessment. It worked well because they had many attempts to practice and knew what was expected before the assessment piece came."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "This was extremely helpful in keeping me organized with reading instruction. It complimented my language programming so well. I only wish I had discovered the bundle sooner as my students did really well once we had established predictable routines and expectations with the texts."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Using this resource in combination with the vocabulary and reading program and I am absolutely loving it! The students are engaged and learning and BUSY while I run reading groups which is all I could ask for. Thank you!"
