TIPS FOR STUDENTS – TeachShare DIGITAL ACTIVITIES

Note: TeachShare’s digital activities platform is still evolving, so some tools (such as the Pen) are tricky to use, and some features (such as zooming in) are not yet available. As such, when assigning our digital resources to students, consider sharing these tips that we found helpful:

1. Crosswords: It’s best to use the Text Tool to type the answers off to the side, and then drag them into the puzzle frame. To begin, press CAPS LOCK on your keyboard. Then,
• For words that go across: Use text size 14 and hit the space bar between letters (drag in)
• For words that go down: Use text size 10 and hit the Enter key after each letter (drag in)

2. Word Searches: Use the “thick” Highlight tool to mark words. Use different colors for words that go Across, Down and Diagonally. Words will be easier to see, and it’s more fun!

3. Match-ups, Mazes and Dot-To-Dots: Use the “thin” Pen tool – and don’t worry if the lines are a little wobbly.

4. Puzzles with Hidden Messages or Images: The colors described in the puzzle instructions may not match the ones available with your Pen and Highlight tools. You will be able to see what’s hidden even if the colors you use are a bit creative!

5. Have fun: Don’t worry if things look a little “off.” The main thing is to do the puzzles, learn some new things – and enjoy yourself!

You just stumbled upon an amazing character analysis resource that can be used with any novel or even short story! Students will be asked to track and analyze how the main character grows and changes throughout the literary text. Using "post-it's" students will determine character traits and then find evidence from the Beginning, the Middle and the End of the novel. Students will then Elaborate that evidence in their own words to connect how the evidence they chose truly reflects the character trait!

The best part is that students can work in pairs or small groups! This is a game-changer when teaching virtually and I have found that students look forward to working on these types of projects. I change partners and have students complete it for each novel we read! I would give them several class periods to complete this project, and I tend to assign it as a culminating activity...which can even replace an assessment!

This Digital Character Shift Chart for Group Work with any Novel includes one colorful graphic organizer and 18 color-coordinated and formatted post-it's specifically designed to reinforce character analysis and reading comprehension Feel free to print and laminate or share virtually through Google Classroom, Seesaw or Canvas! Assign individually , but pairs work best! Since it's a Google Slide you can always duplicate the main slide to however many groups you have and have ALL the students in your class work SIMULTANEOUSLY on the same document as you supervise! Only one document to have to open and grade!

I always post the three posters below as references but a character trait list is essential.

Feel free to use the detailed instructions below to post to your virtual students!

✅ Each student will be assigned a partner.

✅ Think about how the main character of the novel has grown and changed from the beginning of the novel until now. You will track his/her growth by analyzing the character traits at the beginning, middle, and end of the novel.

✅ Each group is responsible for finding 3 character traits for the beginning, 3 for the middle and 3 for the end.

Under EVIDENCE, ➡️ State the character trait ➡️ Quote evidence from the chapter or chapters indicated.

Under ELABORATION ➡️ Elaborate that quote IN 2-3 SENTENCES.

How does that quote convey how the character displays the trait you chose? Use vocabulary words whenever possible.

✅ I have completed the first post-it set as a sample.

Sequencing pictures for children to cut out and order of events.

Why do you need this?

Sequencing pictures can help children understand the chronological order of events in a story or narrative. Teachers can use them to reinforce storytelling skills and support comprehension.

Working with sequencing pictures encourages critical thinking as children analyze the sequence of events and identify the correct order. It promotes problem-solving and decision-making skills.

Sequencing activities promote language development by encouraging children to describe the events depicted in the pictures. It provides opportunities for vocabulary expansion and oral language practice.

How and when might you use this?

This activity could be used in a variety of ways such as:

· Early learning centers

· Small group instruction to provide targeted support

· Speech and language support

· Independent work stations

For continued use I would recommend laminating this resource and using Velcro to move the jigsaw pieces around.

What is included?

Included are 11 boards showing first, next, then, last. Each board has 4 sequencing pictures to order. Sequencing pictures include:

· Doing laundry

· Making the bed

· Making breakfast cereal

· Making a sandwich

· Washing the dishes

· Making a sundae

· A snowman melting

· Carving a pumpkin

· Building a sandcastle

· Baking cookies
