Not solitude but support!

Fantastic time-saving resource for a busy teacher. The time saved in making my own powerpoint and worksheets is worth 10 times the price. Thank you for the time and effort you put into this. Lovely critical thinking and collaboration activities. Don't think I'll have time for all of them when doing the poem but could maybe come back to them for revision. Love how you incorporated some unseen poetry activities in the contrast exercise.
