This is great! I love having a little cheat sheet booklet that I can refer to when I am unsure of a rule or need a little refresher. The posters are cute and go well with the skills we’re teaching also. It’s a great addition to any SOR classroom.

A great resource for teachers and students alike! I hung the mini-posters on a magnetic curtain rod on my whiteboard, so it’s easy to quickly refer to them during my small group lessons.
