I have now purchased three of these packages (would get the whole bundle but do not need them all). I LOVE THEM. They give you mentor texts, they give you anchor chart ideas, they give you a writing flipbook, and so much more! My units have been work diverse and more interesting for the students. I love these!

This is, by FAR, the most organized, comprehensive writing unit that I’ve bought in years. I adore it. Now I’m going to your site to see if you have one for Narrative and Informational too. Lucy C. has NOTHING on You.
