Paperless Morning Work Bundle With Questions, Pictures, and Videos
By Professional Development and Teacher Prep
Do you need paperless morning meeting slides or paperless morning work that is engaging, raises academic achievement levels, and lowers behavioral issues?
This bundle includes
Morning Meeting Questions (180 slides)
Picture of The Day (180 slides)
Video of The Day (60 slides)
Morning Meeting Question Slides
What I do each morning is display one morning meeting question slide. Every student responds and we have a discussion. These are higher-order questions that inspire thought-provoking answers. Additionally, I have built strong meaningful relationships with these slides!
"Higher-order questions put advanced cognitive demand on students. They encourage students to think beyond literal questions."
Picture of The Day Slides
We use a picture of the day every morning during our morning meeting routine. The slides are projected on our screen for all students to see. Students are asked to infer, visualize, synthesize, and create connections with the picture. Looking closely at a picture is an important reading skill for students to develop to create inferences about what they are reading.
Additionally, the Picture of The Day can be used for writing prompts or centers. Students can look at the picture and write a story based on the picture.
This is also an excellent resource to use with your remote learners as well. You could assign one or more slides to their learning management system for morning meetings and writing or reading activities.
“Morning Meeting is an engaging way to start each day, build a strong sense of community, and set children up for success socially and academically.” -Responsive Classroom
“Morning meetings are an excellent way to help students transition from home to school and help them get ready to learn. In addition, these meetings can help you connect with your students, help students build relationships with each other, and promote an overall sense of community in the classroom.” -Centervention
Video of The Day Slides
The Video of The Day is on PowerPoint and can be used every morning during your Morning Meeting routine. All you have to do is bring up the PowerPoint each morning and play the video on the slide. There are 60 EDITABLE and DIVERSE videos! This is part 1 of 3, and part 2 and part 3 have numerous editable videos as well! If you would rather use a different video one day, you can delete the video and add your own!
Students will infer, visualize, synthesize, and create connections with the videos. Looking closely at a video is an important reading skill for students to develop to create inferences about what they are watching. Therefore, the inferences they are creating about the videos will lead to connections and inferences within their reading texts. Students who practice those skills outside of reading will most likely utilize those same skills while reading. You will need to teach students how to do that throughout the school year with the PowerPoint.
Additionally, The Video of The Day can be used for writing prompts or centers. Students can view the video and write a story based on the video. The students may also write predictions on what they think would happen next if the video continued.
This is also an excellent resource to use with your remote learners as well. You could assign one or more slides to their learning management system for morning meetings and writing or reading activities.

WHY TEACH GENRE TYPES?
Teaching genres isn’t just about categorizing books—it’s about helping students develop critical thinking skills and a deeper understanding of the texts they read. With these anchor charts, students will learn to recognize the structures and themes of different genres, boosting their comprehension and making reading more enjoyable.

DESCRIPTION
► There are six different SETS of Making Inferences Graphic Organizers AND six different SETS of Making Predictions Graphic Organizers that are created in different formats/variations to support differentiation for students!
► These graphic organizers are designed to support students in making inferences and predictions using any text under study. As they read, students use clues from the text (text details) to make evidence-based inferences and predictions.
► This is an excellent tool to set a "purpose for reading" and keep track of what's happening in texts as well as encouraging students to actively engage in reading!
► These Graphic Organizers can be used as part of a larger lesson, as formative assessments, with whole group instruction, small group instruction, and with novel groups/literature circles. These graphic organizers can also be assigned as a "Purpose for Reading" during silent reading time, classwork, or homework!
