"This was perfect for third graders and even higher. The text was not too difficult, but was engaging and we had great class discussions with this packet as a guide. I especially loved that the reflection pages encouraged them to reread and highlight the important details. The students asked lots of questions and wanted to learn more. Also, it's May, and keeping kids interested is a challenge!"
