Please send or post the comparison! Amy Sperline >>> Linda Crumrine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 5/20/2008 3:17 PM >>>
Hi Pam, I work in a grade 3-4 school and my teachers compared the Comprehension Toolkit (not the Primary Kit), the Grade 3 Sundance Nonfiction Comprehension Strategies Kit (They also do have a fiction kit), and Mondo's Now I Get It. My teachers much preferred the Sundance Kit. It was easier to use and includes interactive practice cards, leveled reading selections, take-home readers, a writing link, a family letter for each strategy, etc. I typed up a comparison of the 3 kits. If you think it would be helpful, I can send it to you.

I, too, will be purchasing with my own money. I received some samples from Sundance and I can tell that this company has two parts in its set.... a ficition sampler and nonfiction sampler for asking questions. I am assuming that all the other strategies follow this same format using both genres. I notice a teacher's guide with a CD, strategy posters, modeling transparencies, practice cards, and three leveled selections (above, on and below level) for each strategy geared to first grade.. Can some of you compare this with what the primary toolkit from Heinemann has to offer. Your speedy response would be greatly appreciated..
