TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID…
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Angelique C. says, “AMAZING! One word is really all this review needs, but I wanted to let prospective purchasers know that they won’t be disappointed with this resource. It is so detailed, with plenty of examples, and the students thoroughly enjoyed the interactive notebook work that was associated with it. I love how we were able to refer back to those notebooks throughout the summer even when we weren’t working on our mentor sentences. Thank you for an AMAZING resource!!!”
 
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Annie S. says, “I loved using Mentor sentences when I taught elementary ELA, so I was really excited to find a similar resource for the secondary classroom. The mentor text choices are excellent, and the layout of the digital versions works perfect with google classroom. It’s exactly what I was looking for. I’m already talking to my team about purchasing more units. Thank you!”
