This PowerPoint file allows you to type your questions and answer choices (into the editable pages), or you can hand write them if you choose (on the non-editable pages).

Wouldn’t your kids have fun giving YOU a grade?

This is a quick form for kids to fill out letting you know how they feel about how the class is going. It gives them a chance to feel like their voice is being heard and gives us a chance to hear from those kids that may not always speak up. Plus it is a great way to find out about the climate of your classroom and allows us to step back and re evaluate our procedures and practices.

These are a set of seven posters (kilometer, hectometer, dekameter, meters, decimeter, centimeter, and millimeter) – one set in color, the other in black and white.

Print, laminate and hang. These are a great reference for your students when they are tackling metric conversions.

I have also used them during whole group instruction – I pass out all seven posters and then have the seven students get themselves in the correct order at the front of the room. The students that are seated can help if they are having difficulty. Repeat until everyone has had a turn.

Any questions? Don’t hesitate to ask.

This is a fun way to review presidents and get your kids up and movin’ at the same time. Choose movements for your kids to do as they say the name of each president – jumping jacks, punch out, and chair kicks are just a few ideas you can use. There are two speeds to choose from. With “click to advance”, you will control the speed. This is a good one to use if you want to discuss the presidents or just go slowly. If you choose this “auto advance”, transitions happen automatically. This is fun when you are doing the moves with your kids. Just start it and join in the fun!

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “Character Valentines: Fun for ELA 5-9”

This entry was posted in 5th Grade 6th Grade 7th Grade 8th Grade 9th Grade LANGUAGE ARTS LESSONS Valentine's Day and tagged free on January 19, 2017 by Patrice Manchola (updated on January 15, 2017)

5th – 9th Grade

In this packet, you’ll find everything you need for a fun Valentine’s Day activity that works for any novel. Students will design and deliver valentines from one character to all the rest, then use their favorites to create a lovely display.

General Summary:
Divide students into groups and assign each group a character from the novel. Then give each group a mailbox handout, a box or bag or envelope (to use as a mailbox), a scissors, and the valentines. Each group will create a valentine for every other character from the perspective of their character and then deliver them into the mailboxes. Each group will read the valentines their character received and choose the two they think best reflect the characters’ relationship to share with the class and then hang up on the display.

What’s inside:

Mailbox Cover: Give each group a mailbox cover and have them fill it in with their character’s name. Then let them tape or staple it to the box, bag, or envelope they are using for a mailbox.

Example: You can print this out to show everyone before the activity if you wish. Stress that they are supposed to try to show their understanding of the characters in the novel through what they write on the valentines.

Valentines: There are eight blank valentines for each group. Have students fill in enough for however many characters you are using for the activity. Let students know that not all Valentine’s Day messages will be about love. Plenty of people send valentines to friends or relatives, or even, as in the example, people they don’t like.

Banner Letters: Print out these banner letters to spell “BE MINE”, cut them out, and hang them up on a patch of wall or a bulletin board. Then as each group shares their top two Valentines with the whole class, invite them to hang the pieces up under the banner for a great classroom display.

FREE MATH LESSON – “Why We Can’t Divide by Zero!”

by Scipi – Science and Math

5th – 8th Grade

One day, a student of mine, a mathphobic to be sure, asked, “Why can’t I divide by zero?” Promptly I gave him the answer that any good mathematician would. “You can’t divide by zero because 0 is undefined. It just cannot be done.” Well, that went over like a lead balloon; so, I knew it was time to sit and down and write out a plausible but understandable explanation that my students could understand.

That is what this two page free resource is – a sequential step-by-step explanation of why you cannot divide by zero. It starts off out by explaining what division is and how it relates to multiplication. It concludes with a simple visual to help the students remember the difference between 0 being in the numerator and 0 being in the denominator.

Closure is an extremely important, but often skipped, part of guided math. Students need time to reflect on the strategies they used during work time, ask questions, and discuss strategies with the class. This is also a great way to informally assess your students to guide your instruction.

Assign each student a number. They will write their reflection on a post it note and place it in the numbered box.

Tip: If you teach more than one class, use a different color post it note for each class.

Kindergarten – 12th Grade

Need an engaging way to get your students to replace the overused word ‘said’ (often referred to as a tired/boring/dead word).
This free sample of my Boring Words Interactive Notebook and Synonym Booklets Bundle is a FUN way to get students to expand their vocabulary and improve their writing.This free sample includes:
♦ foldable booklet with numerous synonyms for said
♦ “RIP SAID” tombstone
♦ Instructions on how to create a 3D tombstone
♦ Instructions on how to create a mini foldable book
♦ The synonyms within the book are grouped together based on meaning; and the words are illustrated to show this.
♦ The splash of color in each image helps students zero in on the part of the picture that highlights context.
♦ The illustrations not only serve to show students the meaning of a word, they serve to entertain and engage learners as well.

The paid version of this resource includes:
♦ 700 descriptive words
♦ a “RIP Dead Words” bulletin board decor pack
♦ 20+ mini picture thesauruses that come in 3 print options (foldables, small cards, large cards)
♦ an interactive notebook!

Take a closer look at the complete set HERE

The story behind picture thesauruses

I created my picture thesauruses as a way to solve a problem I was having in my classroom. I wanted my students to be more descriptive in their writing, but the traditional resource used for finding better words – a thesaurus – was just not working! Students would arbitrarily select a word from the long list provided, and often, the word selected was used incorrectly (ie. not in the right context).

I began to wonder… how could I show my class that each word in a thesaurus has a slightly different meaning? If only there were visuals to help students SEE the subtle differences between synonyms, I thought.

So I began working on solving these problems… and presto, my mini “picture thesauruses” (yep, that’s a term I made up) were born. Kid friendly! Fun! Interactive! Engaging! Easy to use!!!

How the books are organized and why:

My bundle of mini books (in the complete set) is based on THE 5 SENSES + EMOTIONS because I find that when students describe the look, smell, taste, sound or feel of an object, it just catapults their writing to a whole new level. Using precise vocabulary to describe emotions helps students add some ‘voice’ to their writing!If you want your students to expand their vocabulary, you can download the complete set HERE.

3rd – 7th Grade

Elaboration Mini-Lesson – Use these slides in an elaboration mini-lesson to show students the difference between a story that lists events and a really good story that goes into details and has elaboration. I’ve found that sometimes students need an example of what it looks like to fix something that was done wrong rather than always being shown only the right way to do it. This is especially true when they are considering revision of their own writing. These can be used as a reminder before students begin writing, or even just before the revision step of the writing process on a story or essay that they think is already finished.

UPDATE: 11-3-14 A graphic organizer is now included which can be printed and given to students for analysis and elaboration on their own writing.

2nd – 6th Grade

These Literature Web Jobs will make creating Literature Webs for any selection more fun and interactive for students in grades 2-6. I have taken each section of the Literature Web from the William & Mary Language Arts Curriculum for Gifted and High Ability Readers and created a “job” for each. Students work in teams of 5 to create a Literature Web for a piece of text. Jobs are the Key Word Wizard, Feelings Fanatic, Big Idea Banker, Image and Symbol Maker, and Structure Supervisor. Each card also contains helpful hints for students to remind them about the types of things they can include for their assigned section of the Literature Web.

Lab Equipment and Data Analysis Skills

This lab covers the proper use of basic pieces of lab equipment and the data analysis skills of tabling and graphing. This lab is perfect all all science students at the beginning of each school year.

Topics covered by this lab:
• The Celsius Thermometer

• Tabling, Graphing and Analyzing Data
• Making a Line Graph
• Making a Bar Graph
• Making a Circle Graph

This lab can be used with any type of science class that does lab work and with students in grades 6 through 12. I have found that my students come to me at the start of the school year with very different skill levels. I use this lab to insure that all students are quickly familiarized with my lab and learn (or review) how to use basic pieces of lab equipment. This lab teaches the use of 5 basic pieces of lab equipment: a graduated cylinder, a Bunsen burner, a meter stick, a thermometer, and a quadruple beam balance. Students will work with this equipment and answer basic questions.

Also included is basic data analysis skills. Students will construct a data table, a line graph, a bar graph, and a circle graph.

Your download will consist of 17 pages: a 7 page lab handout, a 4 page student worksheet, a 5 page answer key, and a 1 page teacher preparation sheet. The lab handouts include: Title, Introduction, Purpose, Materials, Procedure, Questions.

The pages are set up so that you can choose to have your students write their own lab reports, or you can use the enclosed student data worksheets.

Your download will include two versions of this lab: a pdf file and a Word document. Please feel free to make changes to the Word document to better meet the needs of your students.

Here’s a fun way to review prepositional phrases and spread holiday spirit!

The Gingerbread Pirates by Krisitin Kladstrup is a nostalgic story with an adventurous spin for anyone who has baked holiday cookies and set them out on Christmas Eve for Santa. The adventure comes when the gingerbread cookies in the shape of pirates come to life! And yes, this book is enjoyable for intermediate students.

Gather your students around you and perhaps give gingerbread cookies for them to nimble on as you read the book to them. After reading, have students share with partners a family cookie or holiday tradition. Then remind your students that pirates love to hunt for treasure, and so they will go on a treasure hunt for prepositional phrases used in the book. Once the phrases are located and listed, play the Prepositional Phrase Bingo game.
