Less than $5 5th Grade Writing Assessment (by date, latest first)

Bon voyage on your narrative adventure to the Earth's core! Prepare to be amazed by the incredible experiences that await!

What's Included?
2 Writing Prompts (Choose One)
Option 1: Divided Paragraphs (Provides a more structured approach)

1. The Crust: Your adventure begins at the surface, on the Earth's crust. Describe the landscape – is it a scorching desert, a lush forest, or a mountain peak? What sights and sounds surround you?
2. The Mantle: As you burrow deeper, the heat intensifies. You've reached the mantle, the thickest layer of the Earth. Describe the strange and wondrous things you encounter here – molten rocks, exotic crystals, or perhaps even signs of ancient creatures.
3. The Outer Core: The pressure is immense as you descend further. Now you're in the outer core, a sea of liquid metal. Describe the mesmerizing flow of the molten metal and the otherworldly sights that take your breath away.
4. The Inner Core: Finally, you've reached the Earth's innermost layer, the solid inner core. Describe the unimaginable heat and pressure here. What does it feel like to be at the very center of our planet?

Option 2: Lined Paper (Open-Ended)
This version allows for more creative freedom. Imagine your journey to the Earth's core and narrate your experiences in a continuous story. Describe the challenges you face, the wonders you discover, and your thoughts and feelings throughout this extraordinary adventure.

⭐You might need this to remind your students of the Layers of the Earth | Activity and Notes**⭐**

This is a bundle of three dice roll writing assignments. This bundle includes assignments about author's purpose, rhetorical appeals, and character reading response which works for any book.

With these assignments, students roll a die to determine the format, topic, and character/rhetorical appeal/purpose they will use for their writing piece. These assignments offer a lot of flexibility and options for students. They are fun and engaging! This resource includes writing rubrics for the character reading response and author's purpose assignments.

With this activity, students will use a die to determine the format, topic, and purpose to use in their writing assignment. Students should have a solid understanding of what it means for an author to persuade, inform, or entertain before diving in to this activity. A rubric is included. This is meant to be a fun, amusing exercise for students learning about author's purpose. Both the instructions and the rubric come in color and b/w.

Check out my free Ethos, Logos, Pathos Dice Roll Writing Activity, and my Character Reading Response Dice Roll Writing Activity as well!

With this activity, students will drag and drop a comma or a semicolon to fix each run-on sentence. Before assessing student knowledge with this activity, students should know when to use a comma and when to use a semicolon. Students will receive immediate feedback with this activity.

Students use a die to decide the character, format, and topic that they will use for this reading response writing assignment. Students will have to assume the perspective of the character they roll first. You can use this resource with any book. Students simply need to write in the names of characters. This is meant to be a fun, amusing activity for students to think more deeply about what they have read. A writing rubric is included. Both the instructions and the rubric come in color and b/w.

*These bell ringers are part of a larger bundle of resources.*

https://www.TeachShare.com/Product/Sentence-Diagramming-Bell-Ringers-Weeks-1-16-BUNDLE-9889785

These sentence diagramming bell ringers will last a full month. This resource contains four Google Slide presentations- one for each week. There is also an assessment for the end of those four weeks to test student knowledge. The daily activities should last 5-10 minutes.

This resource covers:

- Subject

- Predicate / Verb

- Helping Verbs

- Articles

- Adjectives

- Adverbs

Answers are included for all diagrams.

My bell ringers are color-coded. Red slides should be covered on Monday, yellow on Tuesday, green on Wednesday (missing from preview), blue on Thursday, and purple on Friday.

Sentence diagramming is so helpful when teaching students parts of speech and sentence structure. The repetitiveness of diagramming for a bell ringer is extremely beneficial for students. I tried grammar workbooks for years, but my students hardly retained anything. Daily sentence diagramming made them remember their parts of speech, and was an amazing foundation for my students to have when we started forming different types of sentences. They picked up on fixing run-ons quickly as well because of their diagramming foundation.

Reading Responses are a great way to assess student comprehension, writing skills, grammar skills, and so much more - all in one assignment! They can work with novel studies, short stories, or any written literature or nonfiction text.

But do your students really know what they need to do to complete your reading responses? With this checklist, there is no question about it! Students know EXACTLY what you're looking for and EXACTLY what is expected of them.

Each checklist includes:

• RACE Components
• Grammar Components (conventions and usage; spelling, capitalization, and punctuation)
• Grammar skill assessment

This resource is 100% EDITABLE - so you can add, remove, and alter the components to best fit the needs of your classroom!

Four checklists fit on each page for easy printing - color or black and white options available!

Resource Includes:

• Cover page
• Table of Contents
• Note to the Teacher
• Color Checklists (4 to a page)
• Black & White Checklists (4 to a page)
• Terms of Use
• More Resources
