FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “Literature Analysis- It’s Good to be Me… It’s Good to be You”

by Connie

6th – 12th Grade

Here are two activities when teachers need a few go to lessons for exploring the elements of literature, in this case-Character.

These engaging activities will hook Middle School and High School students into reading and writing about the text that they are studying.The two activities will check off two of your, “Need to Do” boxes. 

Not only will they engage students in their character exploration of the people they meet in their reading, but they will also allow your charges to reveal their own personalities and thoughts. 

This is a great way for young people to turn their private “The Me You Don’t Know” traits and thoughts into their “The Me I Want You to Know” word pictures that they are willing to share publicly. 

Also, these FREE activities fulfill two requirements objectives on most lesson plans- they will jump start students’ higher level thinking skills and give them a chance to exhibit their thinking in their writing.

Young people love to talk about their lives and to offer what they choose about themselves. Here is their chance to do so while they are analyzing literature.

NOTE: although these work as great activities at the beginning of the year for you to get to know your students and for them to learn about each other, they are good throughout the year. As students add to their understanding about types of characters, they will be showing their dynamic and round sides.

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “Independent Reading Program: Book Selfie Station Freebie”

by Spark Creativity

6th – 12th Grade

Reading programs are most successful when students have a chance to share the books they love with each other. Nothing fuels reading like the recommendation of a great book from a friend.

Use this quick and easy “Book Selfie” set to set up a spot for your students to snap photos of themselves with their favorite books.

Then create a “Recommended Reading” display with posters you make on Canva using their photos (directions included!). Use the included heading letters for an easy and beautiful bulletin board, and watch as the books your students love most fly off your shelves.

This is a brand new product for me, so if you and your students enjoy it, please consider leaving a review.

This activity is also part of my full independent reading program, a solid, year-long solution to the “I hate reading” problem. I think you’re going to love it!

FREE MISC. LESSON – “Freebie: Spread the Gospel through Trade board game”

by Kathleen Applebee

4th – 12th Grade

Spread the Gospel through Trade is a cooperative game encouraging players to band together versus a common enemy – the devil. To win, players will need to share resources and make joint plans and decisions. SGT uses interpersonal skills like planning ahead, listening, sharing, negotiating, etc. that are needed for teamwork and collaboration with others in the real world. While sharing ideas and strategies, players are engaging higher level thinking even when it is not their turn.

SGT also gives practice in economic decision making, reading maps, charts and relating scripture to these. Play consists of players spreading the gospel to every region, financed through wise trading, in a limited number of turns while adverse circumstances and the devil try to thwart their efforts.

ZIP file includes .PDFs with game board, tokens, cards and directions.

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “FREE Differentiated Spelling Homework Menu”

by Charity Preston

2nd – 8th Grade

This is a great tool for getting spelling homework returned every week! Parents and students love the free choice it creates! 

Students pick from a wide menu of items that are valued at different points, making sure to turn in enough points to satisfy the teacher requirement. Even on short weeks, just reduce the number of points required. Management tip: Run the menu off on card stock, laminate, hole punch, and place in a three-prong homework folder so you save paper on spelling homework all year long! Or print the different templates on different colors to keep it fresh and fun throughout the year (place in a sheet protector) in the 3 brads of a 2-pocket folder.

Please be reminded that the files you have are to be used by ONE classroom teacher per copyright law. I really thank you for respecting my time and work.

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 flip book 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.

Parts of Speech Grammar Circles (Superhero Themed)

Product Description

Superhero themed Parts of speech Grammar Circle Unit

One of the biggest challenges I had in my English classes was how to fit grammar in with everything else I had to teach. I would give students grammar pages, and then we would correct them together. It was tedious, and it took forever! What’s more is that students were not learning the way I wanted them to. They wouldn’t apply what they had learned from the grammar pages and activities.

I found a solution!

Grammar Circles. Grammar Circles are very similar to literature circles in the sense that students are teaching one another grammar. It is a fun and functional way to teach and Learn grammar. Although this may be done individually, it can also be completed as a group where students, through a specific process outlined in the package, teach one another grammar. They also correct the work together, so the teacher has very little to do other than to facilitate and supervise.

Once these circles have been implemented and students know who their group members are and what they are supposed to do, it is a great prep to leave a supply teacher.

The package includes:

1) A Student Packet – which contains the Literature Circle directions, the notes, and activities, and a “Mark Calculation” page to keep track of their marks. (27 pages)

Activities included focus on:

-nouns

-adjectives

-verbs

-adverbs

-prepositions

-conjunctions

-putting in all together

-correct use of pronouns

-who and whom

-that and which

-who’s and whose

-that and who

-pronoun case

-pronoun agreement

-active and passive voice

-verb tenses (present, past, future)

-verb uses (consistency in verb tenses)

2) A teacher Guide with easy to follow instructions on how to organize the Grammar Circles.

3) The Answer Key – devised to allow students to correct their work and learn from one another.

Also included are free Superhero Themed Parts of Speech Posters to decorate your class.

For those who are from Ontario, Canada – this unit adheres to the Grade 9 English Curriculum (academic). The unit can be taught in any grade to learn parts of speech.
