Spelling Flip Book

Product Description

The Spelling Flip Book is designed to help young learners become familiar with spelling rules and to incorporate them into their work.

Students can color and personalize their flip books to enhance the spelling learning experience.

I always like encouraging my students to use their flip books as reference sheets when they are working to promote good spelling habits. The goal is that eventually, by using the flipbook when working, the student will begin to remember common errors made in the past and correct them. I have had much success with this strategy in my classes.

I’ve also included a color copy and an answer key – a total of 18 pages.

FREE SOCIAL STUDIES LESSON – “Peter the Great of Russia Jigsaw”

7th – 12th Grade

This is a jigsaw project over Peter the Great. I split my classes up into several groups and had them answer two questions a piece.

I would recommend this project to anyone covering the Age of Absolutism!

FREE MISC. LESSON – “Chicka the Clown: A Drawing Book for Little Artists”

by Richi Reynolds

Kindergarten – 1st Grade

Chicka the Clown is a book I created for my class years ago when we were just ending our Chicka Chicka Back to School unit, but just starting a color and shape clown unit. So Chicka the Clown was born…a segue, if you will, between themes! I wanted an activity for them to complete at a literacy station, but I also wanted a drawing tutorial they could easily follow. Chicka the Clown is what I came up with and I have to say I was really impressed with the drawings my children produced. I also like the fact that they were reading the instructions and practicing colors and shapes as they went along. I hope you enjoy Chicka the Clown in your classroom! Richi Reynolds 2012

FREE SCIENCE LESSON – “Crazy Putty – Science in the classroom”

by Teaching Products

1st – 6th Grade

This is a simple science activity that can be completed in the classroom. It uses minimal equipment and students love having something to touch and explore!

Included are complete instructions for making your own silly putty, as well as a scientific explanation of what happened. There are also differentiated student response forms for students to record their hypotheses, questions, process, conclusions, explanations and observations. The student response forms allow students to either write or draw their responses – this is a fabulous way to get your students excited about writing!
