I will always purchase anything RACES from this shop! The differentiated ways to respond are absolutely amazing and the passages are super engaging for my students!

Kids need so much practicing answering short constructed response questions and providing text evidence. These passages are engaging, seasonal and offer that practice kids need.
Adriana S. –
Great resource and I can’t wait to try it with my students this semester!
Vicki W. –
My district uses a different format that they made up but it is essentially the exact same thing as RACES – just more confusing. I found this resource to be extremely helpful and easy for the students to understand. Since the ultimate goal is for them to be able to write effectively, this really made it clear.

Can’t wait to use it to help our 5th grade writing-it’s still a bit overwhelming to use
