Teaching texts in the classroom can be fun, but it can also quickly get frustrating if you don’t have all the necessary information.
To simplify it and make sense of all the fine details, we have created these planning overviews to help. In the planning overviews, you will get breakdowns of the stories, lesson plans, essay questions and answers & other website resources.
