After reading orwatching Enemy Pie, students will create their own FRIENDSHIP pie by listing the "ingredients" that make a good friend.

Students can use the printable or digital version of these fun conTEXT clue cards to infer how the character is feeling based on the conversation displayed on the phone-shaped cards. Blank templates are included on the digital version for you to create your own. I have also included answer sheets with and without sentence stems so students can practice answering questions based on text evidence. Twenty slides total are included (11 in the printable file and 9 in the digital file which is embedded in the pdf).

Students will use these sentence parts to answer who, what, when, where, and why to build a sentence or short story. Handwriting paper is included with a box at the top to illustrate the sentence/story they wrote with their WH sentence strips. Print the WH question page on colorful paper for even more fun.

This super sight word game is a great way to get your little super heroes excited about reading! Game cards include pre-primer, primer, first grade, and second grade Dolch sight words, each marked for easy differentiation based on level. Download, print, laminate, and cut the cards and spinner. Students will spin and land on a number (one or two to practice as many words as possible). Some spaces say "draw 2." That means the student will draw and read two cards. On "action" spaces, you get to choose what the student can do. Use these spaces as an extra turn, lose a turn, or a battle! In a battle, each student can choose a card and attempt to read it. Any card read is kept; cards read incorrectly will return to the pile. Clip art in the game is from Krista Wallden with Creative Clips.

Whether it's in person or online, your students will LOVE this coffee-themed summarizing activity and printables set.

Ideas for differentiation are included to easily meet the needs of all of your students.
