I absolutely loved using this resource with my students while reading What Do You Do With a Problem?. The activities were engaging, easy to follow, and helped students make meaningful connections to the story. My students enjoyed discussing different problems they have faced and thinking about positive ways to work through them. The resource was well organized and made planning the lesson much easier. I would definitely recommend this resource to other teachers!
