Grades 2-6
These easy-to-use, printable mini grammar books are ready for use. There are ten mini books that feature the parts of speech. Each page contains printed headings that can be used to organize notes. 
Students can create their own reference mini books to use when they’re learning to use different grammatical concepts.
By using the books for writing assessments, quizzes, journal prompts, and practice, students strengthen note taking skills. Students also go back to their own text to check for understanding.
So many ways to strengthen student engagement between grammar and writing!

KINGS, QUEENS AND THE FEUDAL SYSTEM
READING PASSAGES AND BINGO
BINGO is a fun way to review new concepts and vocabulary words. The words in this BINGO set relate to the topics of Kings, Queens and the Feudal System, and makes the perfect review for the eight pages of informational text that are included in this product. The passages can also be used for CLOSE READING, using any non-fiction graphic organizer (not included).
This product includes:
8 One-Page Passages of Informational Text (LEXILE 850-950)
36 Unique Bingo Cards (18 pages with two cards per sheet)
The Caller’s Tracking Sheet
24 Calling Cards Containing Words and Clues
Informational Text
There are eight pages of informational text about the topic: Kings, Queens and the Feudal System. The passages cover the following topics:
Words that are included:
King, Queen, Pope, Feudal System, Regent, Nobles, Consort, Serf, Peasant, Magna Carta, King John, Crusades, Matilda of Flanders, Clergy, Skilled Laborers, William the Conqueror, Taxes, Fief, Duchy, Loyalty and Service, Long Live the King!, Coronation, Charter, Eleanor of Aquitaine
Although all cards contain the same 24 words, the order on each card is unique. Each student will find every word on their card. Of course, this means “blackout” is not a good option – although my students sometimes insisted on playing all the way through and singing out “BINGO” in unison at the end!
This product is great for a large group, class or co-op.! It can be played in the traditional way where the instructor randomly chooses one of the cards and calls out the word. Or, to play as a review game, the instructor can read the clue that appears on the card below the BINGO word.

Happy Learning!
Interactive notebooks templates are so versatile! Other than sharing in the commonality of being a printable with the humble worksheet, they serve to greatly economize on space.
For instance, you can scaffold teaching and learning effectively.
You can have prompts on the cover tabs followed by responses under these tabs.
Here I’ve scaffolded the structure of different poem types. Students can look at the prompts and follow along when writing their own poems.
They serve as excellent graphic organizers and effectively target kinesthetic learners with all the cutting and gluing: active hands = active minds.
Great for Compare and Contrast features too.
And above all anything in an Interactive Notebook looks appealing!
Need a great activity to finish out the school year?
This unit includes three engaging activities that are perfect for any time of the year. They can be used with any book! The best part is that they make a super cute display in your classroom. It’s a fun way for the students to look at the elements of a story. You may choose to have them all do the same book, but I love letting them pick out the book of their choice. It’s a great way to get them motivated about reading!
Activities included: Book Review Banner, Book Review Trifold(brochure), and book report(graphic organizer and final draft)

Language Arts – “The Secret Heart” Analyzing and Writing Poetry
By Mary Pat Mahoney
Teach critical thinking, analysis, and creative writing using the poem “The Secret Heart” by Robert Coffin. This delightful poem tells the story of a childhood memory a son has about his father.
This resource will guide your students’ understanding of the poem by using the TP-FASTT and DIDLS analysis acronyms.
The analysis tools are broken down in easy-to-follow activities – including practice scanning the poem.
The lesson ends with an opportunity for students to write their own childhood memory poem based on the format of “The Secret Heart.”
This resource includes:
*daily lesson plans (CCSS aligned)
*pre-reading childhood memory activity
*student notes
*paraphrase chart
*vocabulary
*figurative language activity
*analysis of figurative language
*DIDLS chart
*attitude analysis
*symbol analysis
*title chart
*theme analysis
*guided writing prompt: Analyze theme
*comprehension assessment
*graphic organizers for original poem
*paper and frame for final poem
*rubric
*answer keys
“The Secret Heart” is widely anthologized. It is not in the Public Domain, so I haven’t included a copy of the poem with this lesson. It is available through online and print sources.

This is one of my favorite months – for one thing it is a festive season marked by the advent of Easter – and then, it’s National Poetry Month where an appreciation for all things poetic is fostered.
Now, we all know that in order for our students to write creative poems, they must have a sound knowledge of the poetic devices that play an instrumental role in impressing the reader, so with this in mind, I designed 120 QR Codes (40 color, 40 blackline, 40 answer codes) to make conceptual knowledge more concrete. Instead of me lecturing about the elements of poetry, students can find out for themselves by scanning the QR code on each card, writing their responses, and then checking the answers. Now isn’t that learning by Inquiry in itself?

Wish you a Happy Easter and creative National Poetry Month 🙂

How do you get kids to behave, calm down, clean up, transition, do homework, time out, stand and stretch? It’s all made easier with a soothing voice counting the numbers 1 – 20 over relaxing music with a soft beat.
This “magic timer” counts numbers like a heartbeat. It is one beat per second, plus intro and fade-out; one minute of music in all. It’s a great behavior management tool to help kids calm their minds and focus on the task at hand. You can replay it for an extended countdown.
It’s also perfect for teaching kids to count numbers 1-20, as the pronunciation is slow, clear and correct.
It’s not just for kids! If you would like a minute of relaxation, then cup your palms over your eyes as you listen to this…
It’s FREE, so enjoy it…and if you would kindly leave your rating and feedback it would be greatly appreciated!
I hope you find this MP3 useful and helpful, and if you’d like to try the longer version it’s here:

“When I first began TBOTEMC, I will admit, I was a little skeptical. I decided to really commit to the material, and I got connected with some of the members. TBOTEMC was the best decision, or investment, I have ever made. My sales for February 2015 are $8,046. My total sales for last year were just over $6,000. I’ve made more money this month than all last year!!! I am only a few thousand dollars away from my first TPT MILESTONE! I MADE THE TOP 100 PRODUCTS AND TOP 100 SELLERS OF THE WEEK. Julie from Educating Everyone 4 Life has been my cheerleader, and emails me whenever I need her. I bought my tickets for Las Vegas, and I can’t wait to see what else TBOTEMC has in store!!! Thank you Victoria! I want to hug you in real life!!!”

“I started selling at TpT in January of 2013 and, without much marketing, made steady progress and managed to reach the first milestone in October of 2014. After realizing the potential of this business, I decided that I MUST add marketing to my plan if I wanted to continue to rise in the marketplace to the next level. That is when I discovered Vicky’s product. With the guidance of this program, I have seen increases in all areas of my business and I have begun to enjoy the benefits of working with others for the common goal of increasing TpT awareness in the world marketplace. I highly recommend adding this to your own hard work and see where it can take you.”
