1st – 3rd Grade

EVERYONE LOVES CLIFFORD -JUST EVERYONE! And this free lesson, “CLIFFORD, THE BIG RED DOG CRAFTIVITY…AFTER READING THE STORY”, provides the primary age children with an introductory experience in my LanguageART approach to teaching…in which art and literature work together. After hearing the teacher read the story of Clifford, the Big Red Dog, and discussing the story, the students will then enjoy a simple cut and paste project. They will learn many basic art skills, have a chance to add creative details of their own, and of course have fun! This project can be used in the art room, classroom, or as a home school activity. These links will explain the LanguageART approach in detail, and show you a reduced price bundle of Clifford products.

FREE MATH LESSON – “Find the Error – Error Analysis Blank Template”

This entry was posted in 1st Grade 2nd Grade 3rd Grade 4th Grade 5th Grade 6th Grade 7th Grade 8th Grade MATH LESSONS and tagged free on June 12, 2020 by Patrice Manchola (updated on June 6, 2020)

1st – 8th Grade

This is a blank template I use often in my classroom during math activities, or as a kind of group exit slip or diagnostic to see if students can spot the error. This resource includes both the powerpoint version (so you can add textboxes over top of where you wish to add your information), or the PDF – which is what I use. I simply project the PDF onto the whiteboard and we use our whiteboard markers to write in the boxes. You can also print and use the blank PDF and use a center or a guided math activity.

I use this activity as reinforcement/review when I see an error commonly happening in the classroom. I can quickly pull up the template (which I have as a shortcut on my computer desktop) and write in the question and incorrect solution. I ask students to look at the incorrect solution, find and circle the error on the board, and then model the correct solution on the right hand side.

Now That School’s Out. What Will We Do for the Summer?

By Deann Marin of Socrates Lantern

Summer is the time for fun, fun, fun! School is out no more hitting the books. The only problem is that much of what was learned during the school year is forgotten, “out of sight, out of mind.” Not so with these fun educational activities that will keep the children looking for more and not even realizing they’re learning.

Free. This will give you an example of the type of open-ended questions you will find in No-Nonsense Teaching read aloud ‘Theme’ series of resources. The paid ‘Theme’ series of resources includes enough purposeful talk questions to last 2 – 4 lessons depending on the book.

Quality open-ended comprehension questions take time to develop. No-Nonsense Teaching has done the time-consuming work for you.

The Hueys and the New Jumper by Oliver Jeffers is an entertaining read aloud which asks readers to reflect upon our need as humans to both conform with others and at the same time be an individual.

This resource includes scaffolded questions to help guide children in thinking deeply about the text and understanding the theme or big ideas.

The questions are intended to be used in conjunction with purposeful talk strategies.

These questions are incredibly valuable to:
* include in a school’s book room
* use the questions for discussion purposes at PLCs
* Literacy Coaches, Consultants and support teachers
* Administrators to lead PLCs and offer suggestions and book choices

Included:
* open-ended comprehension questions that require high-level thinking
* suggested flow of a lesson broken into BEFORE, DURING and AFTER reading

Theme, Big Ideas, Purposeful Talk, Accountable Talk, Comprehension, Read Aloud

Are you looking for a fun “Spring” reinforcer activity to use with your students? Do your little ones love bugs? Then this fun FREEBIE is just the activity to use to keep your students engaged and learning!! There are two variations to use this activity.

Catch a Bug Game
Directions for version #1: Print the bug jar (page 3) and the blank sheet of bugs (page 4) on card stock and laminate. Adhere velcro on the jar and bugs. Use as a token board or let the students take off a bug after they complete their speech or language target.

Directions for version #2: Print the bug jar (page 3) and the sheet of bugs with numbers (page 5) on card stock and laminate. Use an empty container and place all the bugs in the jar. I put paper clips on the bugs and then we used my magnetic fishing pole to catch bugs and earn points. The student with the most points wins the game!

1st – 12th Grade

“Think- Pair – Share” is a great strategy for differentiating learning and keeping students on task, resulting in more effective student learning. This strategy is also a very effective classroom management tool –it keeps students involved and provides opportunities for teachers to check for understanding. Think-Pair-Share has many benefits to student learning–builds in wait-time; provides rehearsal for responses; enhances depth and breadth of thinking; increases level of participation; keeps students on-task; provides processing time called for in 10:2 Theory. It’s great to use with all ages, including adults! Look for my Think-Pair-Share record sheet to reinforce students about what to do–available on Teachers Pay Teachers.

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

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!

Kindergarten – 2nd Grade

Looking for a fun interactive game for your students to practice telling time to the hour? This game will do that and keep your students engaged and having fun!

How to Play Scoot
Every student gets a copy of the response sheet. Students will move from desk to desk or seat to seat, reading the card or you put there and answering it on their sheet in the corresponding box.

It is very important to practice moving from desk to desk or seat to seat before playing the game. Do this a couple of times so they get the hang of moving to the next number. When you say “Scoot” they get up, push in their chair and take their clipboard and pencil to the next numbered desk or seat.

Included:
❊ 24 time cards
❋ Blank template to create own time cards
❊ 2 response sheets with and without numbered boxes.
