Elementary School Interactive Notebooks (by date, oldest first)

Graphic organizers can be helpful in being visual aids when students are writing.

• Helps students focus on their thoughts for planning, decision-making, and writing an essay

• Helps students see the connections, patterns, and relationships between facts, concepts, and ideas 

• Organizers provide a visual depiction for writers by showing them where each piece of the essay is placed within an essay

Venn Diagrams show the relationship between two ideas. A venn diagram can have two or more circles. When the circles overlap, the venn diagram shows the similarities between the two or more ideas. In the spaces where the circles do not overlap, it shows the differences between the two or more ideas.

I hope your students/children enjoy this compare & contrast by understanding the importance of why a graphic organizer is needed, as well as understanding the variables of a Venn Diagram.

Venn Diagram Graphic Organizer is in Google Slides, Powerpoint, and PDF formats.

Happy Writing!

THIS IS A HUGE BUNDLE of Adaptive Books! This huge bundle includes adapted books for all holidays, counting, colors and much more!

Right now there are 40 sets of adapted books included in this set worth $208.00! Each set includes multiple books giving you approximately 106 books to use with your students! PLUS, as I make additional books I just throw them into this set! These books will provide additional support and resources to your classroom all school year!

What is included?

This set includes a plethora of resources and it will keep you busy throughout the school year! I have included animals, holidays, counting, shapes, colors and more.

While many sets are made with the early literacy / early math skills in mind there are also books that can be used as your students grow their skills. I have even my biggest sellers are included in this massive bundle of 40 products!

Why Adapted books?

I personally love using adapted books. I have found them to be motivating to even my most reluctant learners. They are a great resource for such a wide range of learners as well as I can easily modify my instruction for the needs of each student.

I have used them with students who are just learning to sit in their seats and follow directions. Adapted books can easily be modified for students by providing less visual options.

I have also used them with student who are reluctant learners. They may already be confident in the skills presented in the books, however benefit from a learning activity they know they will do succeed with. It is a great starting activity!

Do you have a student who is working on identifying "wh" questions? Place a post it note over picture on each page. Read, ask the "wh" question, and your student can check their answer by checking under the post it note.

Once I have my books prepared they are sturdy, easily cleaned & stored. I store mine in a crate that supports hanging folders. They are sorted by topic and easy to grab and go. We use them in stations, with substitutes, my classroom aides, and when student want to read with peers. They are often requested as well!

How are they prepared?

These books do require some prior prep work. Once they have been created however they are able to be used year after year with a variety of students. I generally print, laminate, bind and velcro them so they can be reused. The adaptive books are designed with students ability to interact with learning material. Each book has interactive icons. Students will have options of 8-10 choices for each story.

Struggling with helping students track their progress as required by Marzano evaluations? Look no further! Introducing the Florida B.E.S.T. Standards 4th Grade Reading Scales, a comprehensive resource designed to meet the needs of tracking student progress and ensuring students understand their learning journey. These scales break down the I can statements for each reading standard. I've been using this resource format for 9 years and it has been a hit every time. I would love for you to have the same results in your own classroom.

**This Resource is for ONLY for FL B.E.S.T ELA Standards at this time**

Key Features:

• Comprehensive Learning Scales:

  ✨Version 1: Includes academic vocabulary filled out with definitions to ensure students
  understand key terms.

  active learning.
