I was able to use this with 2nd through 4th grade reading resource students. Two weeks ago we were in person for 3 days then went virtual the last two and then virtual for one more week. I was able to work with these passages in person and in packets I sent home so that students could complete them with me via virtual. The students enjoyed the poems and stories and I enjoyed the discussions we had. It is a great resource and it is very easy to use.
