The 2022-2023 Primary Mentor Text Club Bundle is complete!
There are now 12 weeks of COMPLETE lessons ready to use again year after year!
All twelve units of one-week lesson plans are less than $3.50 each when you buy in at the club bundle price!
WHO SHOULD USE THESE CLUB UNITS?
Using mentor texts is one of the best ways to maximize your teaching time. You are able to teach multiple skills, subjects, and topics with just one book!
WHAT IS INCLUDED IN EACH MONTH’S UNIT?
You will notice that the units align in best practices with my other resources, so if you are already using other components from the First Grade Mentor Text Curriculum or the Second Grade Mentor Text Curriculum, they can easily be incorporated into your plans without breaking stride.
(The mentor text books are NOT included. If you don’t own a copy of the book, and can’t purchase it, check your local library or you might even find an online read-aloud of the text with a simple Google search!)
These sets do NOT use any of the books or articles previously used in other resources!
HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT FROM JIVEY’S OTHER RESOURCES?
My Mentor Sentences and Better Than Basal resources do not provide explicit sequenced weekly lesson plans. This is so that you can move in and out of each unit as you need and go in any order you’d like. The units in the club DO contain explicit lesson plans, and should be taught over the course of the week in the order presented in the unit.

*The mentor sentence lessons I have created are adapted from the ideas of Jeff Anderson. These lessons were born from the routine that worked well in my classroom, and the demos and examples I present are variations of Jeff Anderson’s methods. This is not the only way to “do” mentor sentences in your classroom.*
