Sentence stems and frames are invaluable tools for English Language Learners (ELLs), providing the support they need to structure their thoughts and express ideas more confidently. T_his resource is designed with ELLs in mind_, offering content in both Spanish and English to enhance comprehension and language development. It's differentiated to meet the needs of learners at different proficiency levels—beginner, intermediate, and advanced—helping them express themselves effectively.

Included are 35 editable pages, organized into 23 specific ELAR areas:

• Compare & Contrast
• Opinion
• Cause & Effect
• Discussing Thoughts
• Comprehension
• Retelling
• Using Text Evidence
• Making Connections
• Discussing a Character
• Elements of Literature
• Discussing What I Know
• Inferencing
• Asking Questions
• Theme
• Point of View
• Text Structure
• Summarizing
• Author’s Purpose
• Figurative Language
• Drawing Conclusions
• Character Development
• Vocabulary in Context
• Synthesizing Information

These are both community helper themed file folder games. One game has shape and color matching practice and the other file folder game has number recognition practice as well as one-to-one correspondence practice.

I would print and laminate all the pages for both activities.

For the number Fire Truck file folder game attach the firetruck pages that have numbers on each one onto the filefolder. Once that is done cut out the firetrucks that have the borders and a different number of dots on each one. Once that is done I would attach a velcro dot to the front of each firetruck that has a number on it as well as the back of each one that have different numbers of dots on each one. You and your students can use this product multiple times.

For the shape/color matching file folder game I would do the same thing. Print and laminate all the firetruck pages. Once that is done attach the #2 pages of shape/color firetrucks that do not have the borders around each separate firetruck to the file folder. Then cut the firetrucks with borders on them out and create fire truck counting cards. Once that is done put a velcro dot on each firetruck that's attached to the file folder and then place a velcro dot on the back of each firetruck counting card. This makes this game easy to reuse for different themes and activities that you do throughout the year!

I hope you and your students enjoy this product as mach as I enjoyed making it!

You will find a few typical all about me questions, but the majority of the slides are geared toward the interests of teenagers, leaning into social media, musical artists, food, fashion and more!

You'll see instant engagement as students realize this isn't another boring classroom game.

Simply print the included labels for each corner of your classroom and project one of the questions. Read it aloud, then students should move to the corner that corresponds with their answer choices.
