Met expectations Great value Hi! I am planning on using this with my middle schoolers this year. They love activities such as this. I used it with my 2nd graders last year who enjoyed it. I was wondering if there could be a change in the spelling on slides 29 and 30. Could you please change it from “Super” to “Supper”? I would really appreciate it! -Tori

Met expectations Great value I used this resource with my Kindergarteners during Lent and it was wonderful way to ground us with each symbol. I loved how direct and simple the illustrations were, so I was able to use the resource as my mini lesson and still had time to expand on and connect the symbols to other Lenten ideas. The bag allowed us to easily review as needed. I will be using this for years to come!

This was a great way to start the Lenten season. We began on Ash Wednesday and used the power points and the weekly symbols to complete and put in the bag. We kept these on our classroom windowsill as a reminder to keep our Lenten promises. I also had the students reread their Lenten promises each week and reflect as to how they were doing. My principal popped in yesterday before our break and absolutely loved them!
