TEACHING TOOL KITS
Helping children get the most from reading the books in the Ella Says series!
I have developed TEACHING TOOL KITS to support each book in the ELLA SAYS series! They can be used to create enriched learning opportunities for children. In addition to story-specific activities, numerous activities related thematically to the Ella Says stories are provided that do not require knowledge of the book's storyline. The activities offer a great balance of fun and learning along with bright illustrations which are sure to keep children engaged!
