Rachel’s Monster

By Gini Musmanno of Reading Spotlight

The first time I saw Rachel she was standing in the hall near her first-grade classroom door. Her eyes met mine, but she then turned her face to the wall. I did not know at that time she would become one of my first primary grade remedial reading students, nor did I know that she was repeating first grade–this is a story about Rachel’s monster.

“BOO” to Fractions? Recognizing Equivalent Fractions

By Vicky Rauch of Scipi

Math requires constant practice – something most of my students dread doing. I can find many “drill and kill” activities, but they tend to do just that, drill those who don’t need it and kill those who already know how to do it. So to drill and “thrill”, I created fractional word puzzles. The one for October is Halloween Fraction Riddles.

Cursive vs. Keyboard – an interesting debate

By Renee Heiss of All-American Teacher Tools

There have been many debates over the centuries regarding the education of our children.

However, hidden beneath the mandated revisions is a new discussion that centers around cursive writing vs. keyboard entry for student assignments.

2nd – 5th Grade

Don’t you love those word-themed shapes? Here’s a way you can have your students make one without having to try a capricious app.

There are 2 versions of the cornucopia in this product.

The first is for younger children. Have the students write what they are thankful for within the blank spaces of the cornucopia. They may also color the picture.

The second cornucopia is more suitable for older children or those that are pretty adept at printing. The cornucopia on this page is outlined in very light gray. Have students use these as writing lines to record what they are thankful for. The final result will be a word-picture.

Hope you enjoy this freebie. Happy Thanksgiving!

LESSONS and tagged EFL - ESL - ELD English Language Arts fun stuff Graphic Organizers interactive notebooks No Prep Spelling on October 11, 2021 by teachingmadeeasy123 (updated on October 11, 2021)

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.

Luckily, here are some tried & true math lessons and activities that work well for the beginning of the year.

https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Group-and-Skit-Evaluation-Rubric-699937

Description

Group work is always tricky to evaluate because there is so much going on. In addition, as educators, we are required to give detailed feedback on students’ performances.

I created this FREE document to make the teacher’s job easier, and to allow students to be responsible for their success as well.

Self-evaluation grids are a great way to guide students in their evaluations. Students will know exactly what is expected of them and will be made responsible for their success. This package can also easily be changed to be used as peer evaluations.

This self-evaluation grid will help students as well as teachers to assess students’ group work. When students use this grid to assess their work, there are no surprises when they receive their final mark. This grid, in particular, allows the students to become organized and responsible for their individual parts.

These self-evaluation grids are also very helpful to teachers:

❒ Helps the teacher justify the final mark;

❒ Helps to identify students’ weaknesses and strengths;

❒ Helps parents and students better understand the task required;

❒ Helps teachers create rubrics for the final evaluation.

Because of formatting issues, this package was created in a PDF document, but I can easily email you a Word file to be easily modified and changed according to the individual teacher’s needs.

The Mall of Amazingness is a fun and short animation video followed by a question and the solution.

The animation is lively and engaging and will encourage critical thinking and problem solving in students. It depicts a scenario in which Sammy’s Uncle gave Sammy a gift certificate for $50.00 to spend in a mall.
Sammy’s challenge is to determine which combination of choices would help him spend every penny.

Teachers have used this in class and found it very creative and useful in engaging students.

FREE MISC. LESSON – “Free Trauma Informed School Counseling Confidentiality Posters”

Kindergarten – 12th Grade

Confidentiality posters for your office! Free, snazzy, psychoeducational Confidentiality Posters for the Trauma Informed School Counselor. Because everything can be a learning moment, from the passive learning from your office decor to the active learning students encounter in your office and their classrooms. Various backgrounds, including dinosaurs, kittens, tribal print, unicorns, glitter, rainbow, chalkboard, tie-dye, galaxy print, and more!

Confidentiality posters are quite literally a necessity for school counselors, but that doesn’t mean they have to be scary or boring! In true school counseling style these confidentiality statements build on the standard exclusions to become an opportunity for education.

Each poster says this or a variation of this:

Confidentiality

(or, the rules about what stays between us and what doesn’t.)

Chats with the door open or in the hallway aren’t confidential… Other people can hear us!

When the door is closed everything you tell me stays between us unless…

1. You tell me you are going to hurt yourself.

2. You tell me someone is going to hurt you.

3. You tell me you are going to hurt someone.

4. There is a medical emergency.

5. You tell me something like “I can’t see the board in math!” I would ask the math teacher to move you to the front row and ask the school nurse to check your eyesight.

In other words, I only need to share the details of what we talk about if your wellbeing is at stake. I do this because I care and because I am legally bound to do so. I will always do my best to let you know before I share anything we talk about so it isn’t a surprise to you.

***************************************************************************

Want to pair this with a 15 minute micro-lesson on coping skills? Check out The Coping Skills Web!, an interactive, kinesthetic lesson that makes resiliency a little more concrete for teens and tweens.

You have just found a gem! My students have thoroughly enjoyed creating this origami while igniting their critical thinking process. At the same time, you get at least 20-30 minutes of quiet time while your students work independently and they get to take home their handmade treasures.

In this product, you will receive detailed written AND pictured instructions on how to fold a 6 by 6-inch paper origami. The two forms of instructions are given to help you differentiate between your student’s various learning styles.

You also receive a preprinted template for each student that will guide them in the folding process at their own pace. This template will greatly help those students that have never folded origami before. You also have the option to print the template on white or colored paper.

This is a low prep activity for you and loaded with tons of creativity for your students!

Now that most of us are getting geared up for a new school year, it’s time to think about what classroom rules need to be established.
