I am absolutely obsessed with the Little LadyBug Shop products and customer service! Jacqueline is incredible and put in time and effort to make sure I was happy with this resource. I appreciate her time so much. I love that the reading comprehension passages and questions keep students engaged, guide them through the passage, and support learning about impactful Asian leaders and figures. I have previously bought her other packages for Women in History, Black History Month, and others. These packages and reading comprehension resources are GREAT for the classroom and can be used in many different ways! I would recommend anything from this shop, I am super happy with it!

Okay so this was such a great resource! My students were familiar with pretty much all of the icons on the reading comprehension. They were a great independent resource assignment so that I would be able to pull my small groups in the meantime. I also left this as homework which was great!

I love this resource! My students learned about 3 people of their choice. This resource is easy to prep, and I liked that there were two options for responses: multiple choice and short answer. I was able to easily differentiate. I also used the extension activity and had my students compare 2 of the people they read about. We talked about why AAPI month is important, and how we can celebrate.
