ELA Book for Student Writing/Grammar/Editing - Workbook
By Blooming Through High School
Perfect for learners who have IEP's requiring class notes, correctly completed examples, and graphic organizers.
I was tired of writing things on the board over and over again. I was tired of printing out pages that students threw away. I was also tired of answering questions that students could find for themselves. So I made a book to make sure I wouldn't have to anymore.
Over the course of 2 months, I thought of everything that I would have to teach, explain, write examples of, and print, and I put all my tips and tricks into ONE BOOK. I printed this out and spiral bound all the pages for each of my students. Every time my students ask me to repeat something, I point them to the book.
I also use this in my class for reference during specific lessons as well. It's a game changer! I save time and I save my sanity.
It's the MOST helpful for all the little pieces students need to know for all the stages of writing: brainstorming, pre-writing, paragraphs, citations, plagiarism, and much, much more.

Hatchet Novel Study - With Lesson Plans and Slideshow
By A Teachers Sidekick
This is a novel study of Gary Paulsen's Hatchet. In this product, there are completed lesson plans (and a blank one if you need to write your own), a slideshow that includes everything for each chapter (introduction, review of content, copy of the doodle notes, copy of the end of chapter activity/discussion outline, and the closure question), the Doodle Notes outline for each chapter, and the End of Chapter/Discussion activities. This novel study is for 4th-grade to 7th-grade students.
In this novel study, students will practice central idea/supporting details, writing summaries, citing evidence from a text, making inferences, analyzing figures of speech, describing story elements, cause/effect text structure, problem/solution text structure, and multiple opportunities to practice discussions with their classmates.
A large part of this novel study is discussion-based. I have included a slide on the slideshow where you will put your classroom expectations for discussions. There are also times for the introduction to the chapter, you will start with a whole group discussion. (I would maybe recommend turn and talks if you use groups in your classroom)
I hope you enjoy it. Please send me any questions that you may have and please rate and review.
