What educators are saying
I love doing this activity with my students at the beginning of the year! It makes them figure out how to work together! Thank you so much!
This is an excellent resource for the first week of school. Students get to work together as well as ease back into learning. I have found that my students take the job of "saving Sam" seriously, but also have fun with the activity.
