Take your early elementary morning meetings to an exciting new level! with these True or False Morning Meeting Slides or Morning Meeting Games for the fall or autumn season. Watch your students eagerly participate, build their knowledge, and develop essential critical thinking skills.

These slides can be used throughout the day, not just during Morning meetings. The slides can be used as a brain break or as a game! There is a 30-second timer on each true or false question that can be used for a game mode.

You will present one slide with a true or false question with a background picture that matches the question. Students will answer the true or false and then press the slide again and another slide will pop up that will state the true or false answer with another picture matching the question and a video linked to explain the answer or a funny video related to the question.

How is this different than other morning meeting slides or games?

• Diverse autumn picture backgrounds that go with each question instead of the same blank background.

• Linked Youtube videos to every true or false answer slide.

• A timer to use if you play a game with your class.

Need an awesome Art Unit? I have just the thing for you! This creative Observational Pumpkin Drawing was designed to be printed and displayed as examples while you teach. Use this Google Slide file to display these beautiful images one-by-one on a large screen. For this assignment, I placed several plastic pumpkins and gourds at each set of tables for students to look at and draw. Students practiced drawing/coloring pumpkins and gourds in their sketchbooks or on small paper first. Next, students started a Final Copy drawing of one observational pumpkin and one gourd on 11 x 17-inch paper (horizontal). Students used oil pastels and watercolor paint. Plan to do this unit during the fall, between Halloween and Thanksgiving. I hope you and your kiddos love this! Enjoy.

Need a fun way to introduce Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets to upper elementary or middle school students? This great lesson lets students learn the basics of Microsoft Excel (or Google Sheets) as they create pixel art using the program. First, they'll create a quick pixel art from a given example and then they'll create their own! These are also fun lessons to use if you just need something for a one day lesson.

I've used this with 7th and 8th graders who used their free time to create even more art! I hope your students have as much fun as mine did learning Excel or Google Sheets!
