Kindergarten – 3rd Grade

 

Plant Fun using QR Codes

 

Updated 7/6/2014

Learning about plants is so much fun when learning with QR Codes! There are so many interesting facts to learn and cute songs about plants!

This is an awesome activity that can be easily adapted to children of various ages and needs. It is also good for differentiation instruction. It’s a great way to incorporate technology into the classroom.
————————————————————————————-
*****This is a great product to try If your school/district blocks or filters certain internet sites.
If these QR codes work, then all of our products should work without any problems. The videos are from YouTube, but we have funneled them through the safeshare site so that students only see the video from the QR code. Safeshare keeps the videos clean from commercials, popups, and won’t allow students to surf the internet. When the QR code is scanned, students then hit play.

————————————————————————————-

Check out our QR Codes (made in safe share) to explore the world of penguins! Just SCANthe QR Codes on the task card using any device with camera capabilities (such as a Smart Phone, iPad, iPod, etc.) and watch your students immediately become actively engaged while exploring and learning interesting facts about plants via songs and stories.
————————————————————————————-
Directions for Use: Our products are made into two formats. We have a task card that QR Codes can be scanned using rear facing camera devices and we have QR Codes made into individual cards that can be cut apart to use with front facing camera devices. The individuals can be backed with construction paper or pretty scrapbook paper to fit the theme; these can also be placed around the room. Print, laminate or place in plastic sleeves for notebooks. You can also hook your device up to your smartboard for the whole class to view.

After viewing the QR codes (made in safe share), the students can be directed to the choice board activities and word bank to enrich their common core learning experience. These activities can then be easily used as formative assessment tools to help you make effective teaching decisions!

This product includes 6 pages:
1. Cover page
2. Task card

Parts of Speech Grammar Circles (Superhero Themed)

https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Parts-of-Speech-Grammar-Circles-Superhero-Themed-1919542

 

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 implimented 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 own 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.

(51 pages total for this unit)

LANGUAGE ARTS – “Phoneme Subtraction”

Grades K-2

by Reading on Strawberry Lane

This fun print and play activity will help students master the skills of phonemic deletion/subtraction and reinforce phonemic awareness, which is the ability to hear the smallest unit of sound. Students will read a word and then subtract a sound thus creating a new word. 

Also, this activity targets initial consonant blends and consonant digraphs such as bl, ch, cr, sm, th, sh, and more. There are two game boards (colored/black and white versions) and 92 task cards designed to engage learners. You may use this game board or any game board you have. Or just use the task cards alone, and the student with the most cards at the end wins.

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “Wild About Animals Mini Research Pack – Common Core Research Pack”

by Kyp McLaren

Kindergarten – 2nd Grade

 

Wild About Animals Mini Research Pack

 

What’s Included in This Packet:

Activities to do with the 2 different farm animals

“I can describe…” Map for each animal
“Have, Can, Are” Maps for each animal
Clipboard Page for each animal

How to use this research packet:

Begin by letting students choose an animal they want to
research. You could let students work in partners or groups, or each have their own animal.

Let students research their animal by reading books, magazines or newspapers (such as Scholastic, Time for Kids, etc.) about their creature. They could also search for information on the internet and/or by asking family members or friends.

After students have researched their creature you could begin with the “I can describe…” page and/or the “Can, Have, Are” map to make a quick list of things about their creature. These two pages will be helpful when the child begins to write their report about their creature. I would print these off and have available for all of your little researchers. (Just as a note, by this time of year my kindergarteners have had many experiences with these 2 types of maps and understand how to fill them in.)

The clipboard research page can be used for younger writers to share the information they gathered about their animal. I have also included a different format of research pages for older students.

My little guys are always very excited to share their research. You could let each student or group present their information to the class.

You might choose to collect all of their research reports and make a class book. If so, you will find a colored book cover for just this purpose included with this packet.

Have fun researching all of the different animals and helping your little people become researchers and scientists!

FREE SCIENCE LESSON – “Free Soil Lab”

by The Science Penguin

3rd – 5th Grade

 

Free Soil Lab

 

This soil freebie will help you and your students observe soil samples and test their capacity to retain water.

It contains recommendations and student recording pages.

Directions:
Set up 4 stations for students to record data. Include a different soil sample at each station. I like using gravel, sand, potting soil or loam, and clay. Each station should have a small container of the soil particles (like a petri dish), a graduated cylinder, funnel, and coffee filter.

Go over the question and write a hypothesis.

As a class, put 40 mL of water in each funnel containing a coffee filter and funnel with the particles inside. Allow time for the water to pass through the coffee filter and into the graduated cylinder.

Then, have students visit the stations to record their observations. Create a chart and graph of the data, draw conclusions, and answer the question.

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “Spelling Dictionary”

by Rockin Resources

1st – 5th Grade

 

Spelling Dictionary

 

Do your students struggle with correct spelling? Give each student a simplified spelling dictionary they can write in and keep! Although my students use this across disciplines, I designed it especially for my writing workshop. It is a list of alphabetized frequently used words and frequently misspelled words! There is also a place at the bottom of each page for students to add words that they use often in their own writing. In the back of the booklet, I included the following word lists:

Words for good, nice, great
Words for went, ran
Words for said
Days of the week
Seasons
Months of the year
Holidays
Numbers
Colors

Directions for a booklet, copy front and back. Then staple in the middle and fold over. No need for cutting!

My students use these every day in my writing workshop!

This also compliments our best selling writing workshop programs known to boost test scores!

FREE MATH LESSON – “Counting Coins Made Easy! (Sample Pages)”

by Nicole Rios

1st – 3rd Grade

Counting Coins Made Easy

 

Are your students having a difficult time with counting coins? The Magic Money method has worked for me for the last 9 years of teaching money to 1st and 2nd graders. This download includes:

– a chart that students might place in their homework/classroom folders with realistic, dual-sided pictures of each coin, coin values, a chant for each coin, and the placement of the dots that will aid them in counting the coins.

– a one-sheet parent explanation of how the Magic Money system works, and how to use it to help their child become successful at counting coins at home

– a hundred chart that specifically aids children in becoming fluent at counting by 5’s (a necessary sub-skill for using this method)

-a coin counting worksheet sample with answer key

-a sample word problem page

This method will work for the vast majority of your students. Don’t worry about them relying on the dots. With time, they will begin to chunk larger values together until they are counting coins in a more traditional way.

If you find this download helpful, this product is part of a larger download “Counting Coins Made Easy with Differentiated Materials” that you can find HERE.

I also offer an ActivInspire flipchart to accompany these learning materials HERE.

FREE LESSON – Differentiated Mother’s Day Card for beginning writers (and BIG TpT site-wide sale on today and tomorrow!)

Free Lesson: Differentiate Mother's Day Card!

Hello my friends!
Is it just me, or did Mother’s Day sneak up on us as quickly as Easter this year?

In times like these, I’m grateful for the stash. (We all have a collection of never-fail, warm-fuzzy lessons and go to printables, don’t we?)

The time-saving factors in this Mother’s Day Card is twofold: 1) Print or photocopy and your students instantly have something to color, and 2) the inserts that allow each child to print (or paste if unable to print) at the level they are comfortable with. By pre-printing the various options, your students have different choices for how they can complete their Mother’s Day message, and most will be able to do something independently.

Disclaimer: Student names do need to be added to individual cards! 

Inside MD card 1

Some students might be capable of printing a message on their own. Others may copy from a strip or trace. Those who are not printing yet can simply glue their message in.


Copying Th4

Perhaps you’re working on 1:1 correspondence and would like to take this opportunity to practice. Cut the words apart and have your students reassemble the sentence in order, with or without a model.

Lesson from a recovering over-achiever:

Over the years I realized that I had to adjust my expectations to my circumstances. Some years we may have a smaller number of students in our class, students that work more independently or more support for our students with special needs. Particularly at this time of the year, and even more with Father’s Day, schedules go awry and every week feels more frantic than the week before.

This activity worked best, especially in more challenging years, when I let the students choose how they wanted to do the inside of the card. It came down to a decision:

Was the goal of the activity to teach and assess a particular goal or skill for any or all of my students, or for my students to simply enjoy creating something special for mom?

If you like to #DifferentiateByPrinting as is done with this card, check out these growing collections: Sight-Word-Stages Leveled Reader Sets and Read and Write and More!

On another note…

Did you see what I added to the title?  I am a mom and a teacher and a MAJOR appreciator of teachers myself. Thank you to all of you for getting in there with your students everyday. TpT has announced that it’s time to appreciate teachers with a big, site-wide sale! Please see the button below for details!

Enjoy the sale, and Happy Spring!

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “Magic E”

by Miss Jenny and Edutunes

Kindergarten – 2nd Grade

 

Magic E

 

“Magic E” Song FREEBIE: “That Magic E” / Common Core – Aligned

I wrote “That Magic E” to help my students understand how short vowel words can transform into long vowel words. Use this song as a daily commercial in your K-2 classroom. Invite children to read as they sing. Feel free to copy and paste the lyrics below for your students. Note that you may want to add short and long vowel symbols, and make the “magic e’s” bold.

That Magic E

Copyright 1999, 2014 Jennifer Fixman Kramer. All Rights Reserved.

That magic e, that magic e,
It changes so many words, you see:

At, ate,
Mate, mate,
Can, cane,
Plan, plane,

Bit, bite,
Quit, quite,
Fin, fine,
Pin, pine,

Not, note,
Tot, tote,
Hop, hope,
Mop, mope,

That magic e, that magic e,
It changes so many words, you see.

That magic e, changes words you see,

From at to ate, a to a,
From pet to Pete, e to e,
From bit to bite, i to i,
From not to note, o to o,

From cut to cute, u to u,
That magic e,
You know what it can do,
It makes the short vowels sound so long,
And that is the topic of this song.

That magic e, that magic e,
It changes so many words, you see,

At, ate,
Mate, mate,
Can, cane,
Plan, plane,

Bit, bite,
Quit, quite,
Fin, fine,

Not, note,

Complete Hamlet Unit – No Prep

Hamlet Unit (No prep - Complete Unit)

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

One entire month of planning done for you – I dare you to enjoy Shakespeare.

I love teaching Shakespeare’s plays and I want you to love it too. I’ve been teaching and improving this unit for over 10 years. I have literally done all the thinking for you.

This unit has everything a teacher needs to teach Hamlet. I’m aware that not everyone is comfortable with Shakespeare. Because of this, I have created this unit from my years of experience teaching the play so all of the thinking has been done for you. Just photocopy and teach. Seriously it’s that easy.
There’s no longer a need for hours of research and piecing together bits of information and activities found to teach the play.
This is a whole, complete unit, from scene summaries, important notes and annotations notes to help students understand what they are reading. I have also included an introduction to the play, a student guide, a teacher guide, quizzes, a creative assignment, and tests (all with answers and evaluation grids), and a comprehensive answer key. Everything has its place and teaches a specific skill.

The unit is appropriate for students in grades 10, 11 and 12.

The unit includes :

– An attractive, interactive, multimedia PowerPoint presentation introducing the play (17 slides)

-A Student Study Guide (with activities, act and scene questions…) and various activities (14 pages)

-A Teacher Guide (with detailed, comprehensive lessons, unit plan, and additional notes to guide students.) -9 pages and 16 complete lessons. The teacher Guide also includes links to the audiobook (the exact time to cue the audio) AND it includes a list of speaking roles if reading out loud in class)to help with time management and organisation.

-18 pages of comprehensive scene summaries and important notes for each scene (annotations for each scene) ***THIS IS A TEACHER FAVORITE!

-A creative “Guess Who?” game to help students understand the characters. (What’s fun about this game is that it can be played from the beginning of the play right to the end, and students’ answers will change depending on the act they are reading.) LOTS OF FUN!

-A comprehensive answer key for all questions and activities. (24 pages)

-Comprehension quiz on Acts 1 and 2 in Word format for easy modifications (with evaluation grid) and answer key.

-Mid-play evaluation – The Parody – creative writing and analysis (in Word format for easy modifications – with evaluation grid)

-Summary guide (highlighting the significant events from each scene with important analytical information) – Throughout my years of teaching this play, I have amounted excellent notes and annotations, listing the most significant actions throughout each scene. I have retyped these annotations to help you teach the play so your students will understand it (and so will you). (18 pages)

-The culminating evaluation includes three different versions of the final unit test with evaluation grid and answer key (in Word for easy modifications)

Includes a total of 109 pages.

It’s teaching made easy!
