Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Interactive Notetaking for Content-Area Literacy, Levels 3-5
Judith Goodman · 2018
63/100
👎 Skip It
This is a solid, standards-aligned classroom resource from an experienced education consultant, but it's built for teachers running a grades 3-5 classroom, not for families or general readers. Good tool, wrong shelf for most of you.
