I absolutely love the layout and options that this provides. I also really like the fact that I can use it digitally or printed. My students love the look and easy use of the components! - Jessica S.

I used these notebooks firstly with my students who were ready for more challenges with reading/writing. I love how there are pre-made reading prompts, but I could also edit and add my own. They were pretty easy to assemble and kids loved having their own reading/writing journal to have after reading their books. -Jacqueline D.

I used this for both in-class learning and when we switched to distance learning, and it was so easy to use for both. Students understood the clear instructions, and I'll definitely use it for this coming school year! -Danielle R.

Digital reading response notebooks are the way to go! It's so important students have a place to look back on all their writing and this is fantastic. I plan to use them when we return to brick and mortar as well. -Michelle G.

I am so excited to use this resource with my students during virtual and in-person instruction! I wanted to implement a reading journal to help my students write about their reading and this is a highly creative new way to implement an interactive digital journal! My students are going to love using these during our instruction in the classroom and online. -Melissa N.
