I really enjoyed reviewing drawing conclusions, figurative language, and cause and effect with Mr. Harding's 5th grade class almost as much as they did.

I had a blast making millionaires with BreakoutEDU 1st graders really enjoyed counting coins to crack the code to get to their $1,000,000 prize. Some won 2 or 3 million.
