WHAT OTHER TEACHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THIS NOVEL STUDY RESOURCE
♥ This is such a comprehensive novel study! My 6th graders are so engaged in the story, activities, and the topics presented in the Quick Writes, they don't realize the rigorous learning they're doing! Thank you for high quality products, as always!
♥ This is a great product. The quick-writes alone are priceless; they kept students engaged and connected to the text. The activities target important literary concepts creatively, and they brought out the best in my fifth graders.
♥ Once again I am blown away. It may be a little unfair that most of my novel studies are by you guys. I really like that you have given an answer key to your plot and character conflict activities. This has allowed me to make stations and the kids manipulate the cards to figure out where they would go. You would think that the kids would get it spot on but many still have trouble. This just makes the stations idea run smoother.
♥ Well put-together resource. I told another teacher to purchase this resource. It is a must.
♥ Love love love this resource!! I love Hatchet and all the accompanying activities to do during a novel study. This was a super comprehensive resource and packs a LOT into it.
♥ This is an excellent source for this book!!!! I am very excited to start reading this story with my students and I don't have to worry about creating anything for it. You have thought of everything! Thank you for all that you have done for this book!!!!
♥ I love how this is organized. It's perfect for my independent lit circle!
♥ So excited to start this unit. I was a little nervous to spend so much on a unit but I am so happy that I did. Everything looks amazing! Worth every penny!!
