First, here are the number of ratings and the average of those ratings — with so few ratings, though, I wouldn't make too much of the averages, but over time this is going to be incredibly helpful to me as I learn more about which units are proving more successful, which units need improvement, etc. So, 5 is "excellent," 4 is "very good," 3 is "good," 2 is "okay," 1 is "did not enjoy."

Below are some responses to the comments people made, and I am SO GRATEFUL for all this feedback. Because the comments you make in the Google Form are anonymous, I cannot reply to people individually, and I'm thinking these replies might be of general interest anyway — and you might want to check out my replies to previous comments too. There were not a lot of new types of comments different from previous weeks, but here is what I found specifically for these units:
English Fairy Tales. I definitely need to write up something about how freely authors use the term "fairy tales" so that people will not be surprised to find all these very dark, not-safe-for-children stories side by side with familiar children's fairy tales.
Through the Looking-Glass. Someone suggested a quick summary of Wonderland to precede this unit, which sounds like a great idea for people who might want that.
