    My club units have been some of my favorite resources to create because the planning and creation were guided by the teachers using them!Because of the input from your fellow teacher community, I know these units will be such a benefit to you, too! Every unit in the bundle has: 📕a week of plans that integrate multiple skills and subjects📙detailed explicit lessons, including teacher samples📒a week-at-a-glance plan📗digitally converted activities in Google Slides and Forms, when applicable📘mentor sentence lesson📕reading and writing lessons📙integration of other subjects (science, social studies, or social/emotional skills)📒printables for skill practice📗at least one other text (poem, article, paired passages)* to integrate with your lessons *this will vary each unit depending on skills covered!📘short assessmentsCheck out the latest bundle - www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/MENTOR-TEXT-CLUB-by-Jivey-2ND-EDITION-for-Grades-3-5-7058941 ...
