Sample planners by title
Each title has a worked example (a finished plan plus a completed student 3–2–1) and a blank companion that keeps the teacher scaffolds — TEKS target, text-specific questions, and Jigsaw lenses — while leaving the plan and prep for students to fill in. Two US Letter pages each; print at 100%. Copyrighted titles are paraphrase-only companions — students need a lawful copy of the book.
