As a Footsteps2Brilliance user, you have access to printable resources in addition to the online book. These resources will allow you to help your students deepen their understanding of the text while developing text-specific vocabulary and decoding skills.

In the teacher edition of Get Out the Clothes, under Vocabulary game, you'll find a print-and-play ready game to play in small groups or one-on-one with your English Learners.
