Choice Board Bundle Visual Support for Autism and SEN
By SEN Resource Source
Choice board to support a child in choosing which reward they would like.
Why do you need this?
A choice board is a visual support that can be used to communicate what choice a child, who finds it otherwise difficult to communicate, would like to make. The use of choice boards can increase a child’s motivation to participate in school giving them a sense of control. Choice boards provide children with autonomy, engagement and personalized learning.
How and when might you use this?
Choice boards allow children to select from a range of options. This empowers children to choose the options that align with their interests and preferences.
By giving them agency over their choices, the choice board promotes independence, self-regulation, and decision-making skills.
Although there are 8 spaces for choices on the boards you can use it to put in as little as two options depending on the child and their needs. There are 12 different choice cards so that again you can tailor which you put on the board according to the child.
What’s included?
5 different choice boards each with 12 cards to choose from:

8th Grade Social Studies STAAR Review - History Mystery Scavenger Hunt
By TxMAP Teacher
This product is a Scavenger Hunt of 14 people associated with 8th Grade U.S.History. Included is (1) History Mystery Introduction Sheets (2) History Mystery Answer Document (3) Who Am I Clue Cards, and (4) Character Placards.
It can be done as individuals, in pairs, or in groups. Each student or group will get a History Mystery Introduction Sheet with the answer document copied to the back. There are 14 different Introductory Sheets so students don't all start at the same place. When students find the Character Placard associated with their clue, they will write the name and letter on their answer document. They will then get a Who Am I clue card to find their next clue. I make several copies of the clue cards and place them by the Character Placards. *** It is important to make sure there is a planned out order to where you place the Who Am I cards so that students don't end up going to the same person twice.

5th Grade Algebra Review Game - Game Show Style
By The M-Intercept
Students will love this Jeopardy-like review game to review all 5th Grade Operations and Algebraic Thinking standards. Questions focus on solving expressions, writing expressions, equivalent expressions, analyzing patterns, mixed review, and key vocabulary words. Points range from 100 - 500, which reflect the increase in difficulty throughout each category.
**FULLY EDITABLE** While the game is complete, it is also editable in PowerPoint, making it easy to add questions or change the level of difficulty based on your students' needs.
The game includes 30 high quality questions - 6 categories with 5 questions each ranging in
difficulty from basic review (100) to challenging (500)
⭐Solve Expressions: these questions require students to solve equations using the order of operations. All expressions are straightforward whole numbers, except the 500 point question, which has fractions.
⭐Write Expressions: this category asks students to write expressions from phrases such as "nine more than six" and then increases in difficulty to writing an expression to match a real-world problem.
⭐Equivalent Expressions: students are asked about whether or not expressions are equivalent based on the order of operations, use of parentheses and different ways to display division symbols.
⭐Analyze Patterns: these questions involve continuing a pattern such as "add 8" and continue on to questions matching real-world situations. Some questions require reading and/or using a table or the coordinate plane.
⭐Mixed Review: students are asked computation problems to review adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing, as well as questions involving place value.
⭐Vocabulary: this section asks about parentheses, expressions, evaluating, x and y coordinates, and corresponding terms.

FRENCH Phonics Decodable Reading Activity Packet-SOR-Activités Décodables
By La trousse de Madame
Decodable Reading Activity packet includes a variety of activites for French teachers. Quick and simple K-2 reading fluency activities that are decodable and aligned with the Science of Reading. Fun and engaging French resource targeting those learning in the French Immersion, Core French, or modern language programs. Build a strong foundation in French language with educational resources specifically designed with your students in mind.
As I got into using these decodable reading passages in class, the students guided me to stretching out the resource even more to create a cute little packet for them to do a lot of the work on their own.
What's in the pack?
There are 4 original texts that explore complex sounds in French
Target sounds include AN/EN, ON, OU, OI
Text 1: Blanche
-le son AN et EN
-3 variations: a) text with decodable and heart words with comprehension questions with the target sound; b) text with decodable passage with writing lines so students can encode, write responses, or practice writing target words; c) decodable text with target sound with a box provided for students to create a picture to show comprehension (we do picture and label for beginner writers).
Text 2: L'hérisson Tonton
-le son ON
-3 variations: a) text with decodable and heart words with comprehension questions with the target sound; b) text with decodable passage with writing lines so students can encode, write responses, or practice writing target words; c) decodable text with target sound with a box provided for students to create a picture to show comprehension (we do picture and label for beginner writers).
Text 3: Lou le hibou
-le son OU
-3 variations: a) text with decodable and heart words with comprehension questions with the target sound; b) text with decodable passage with writing lines so students can encode, write responses, or practice writing target words; c) decodable text with target sound with a box provided for students to create a picture to show comprehension (we do picture and label for beginner writers).
Text 4: Le poisson Éloi
-le son OI
-3 variations: a) text with decodable and heart words with comprehension questions with the target sound; b) text with decodable passage with writing lines so students can encode, write responses, or practice writing target words; c) decodable text with target sound with a box provided for students to create a picture to show comprehension (we do picture and label for beginner writers).
How we use this in class:
My students now know that we read the passage first together as a group. We decode. We explore. We segment words. Blend them all so we are confident.
Next, we do activities with the sound blends themselves. Using a highlighter, students race to find all the target sound words in the text. I don’t know about you but my student LOVE highlighters! After that, students used the lined window to write all the target sound words so they’re sure they have them all. Then, we do a little exercise where we try to explain what happened in the story in as few words as possible.
The very last step is to draw a picture of what is happening in the text. Students can do most or all this activity pack on their own in the Grade One and Grade Two Immersion setting. It’s a great way to have them build confidence all while giving you the time to work with small groups at the back of your class!
Who can use this resource:
Teachers who are just getting accustomed to using strategies from the Science of Reading can use these simple texts to open up independent practice, small group evaluation, or up on a digital screen for whole group instruction and reading practice.
Make a set and send them home with students to build fluency in reading and confidence in reading strategies.
Texts are designed to build a number of common French sounds and get more challenging as they go on.
Correction sheet is handy for use with a substitute as they can confidently assess students and command the lesson even when they are not assured of their French skills.
What grade level:
I personally use these texts with Grade 1 and Grade 2 students in French Immersion. I feel confident that students from K-3 will find these most useful and teachers can come back to the texts with any students who may be experiencing challenges in their French reading skills. Core French teachers will be sure to add the resource to their repertoire for Grades 4 to 6 as they learn to read and write at the Junior level.
Science of Reading:
These texts are aligned with sounds being taught in any Science of Reading aligned curriculum. They are set up for student success based on the research for increasing reading fluency and building student confidence in the classroom!
Once you have established the strategies for identifying sounds, initial sounds, and blending sounds, segmenting sounds, students will be able to use these self-driven passages on their own. What a great way to build learning autonomy!
