"This was the most engaging pre-reading activity ever! My librarian has breakout boxes, so she and I adapted this so that the puzzles would fit with her boxes. The activity promotes critical thinking and problem solving in such a fun way! Highly recommend this product to anyone reading The Odyssey with their classes."

"This was challenging, and my students loved it! I ended up using the full digital version. I didn't have the physical space to actually set up the room. They still learned exactly what they needed to before we started reading the text."
