Student Success Guidebook - Brochure Project
By Innovations in Technology
Creating a Student Success Guidebook (brochure project) gives students an opportunity to share their knowledge and tips for success in middle school with the following year’s new incoming class of students. This is perfect for a technology or leadership class, or for a club that focuses on assisting students, such as Student Council. Students work in small teams to research an assigned topic about expectations in middle school, specific to their school. Next, they create one page of a brochure with their information which will finally be combined with the other teams’ pages to create a full brochure that can be published and distributed to incoming students. The project was created for 8th graders but could easily be adapted to use with 5th or 6th graders leaving elementary school and providing tips for success to new elementary students, or could be used by sophomores (or above) in high school to create a success guide for incoming high school freshmen.
Great end of year project!!

3rd Grade Sight Word Sentences Booklet - 41 words
By Sign with me TOD
This product is made for:
As students are learning the 41 - 3rd grade sight words in this product, they will be provided with each word, an example of the word used in a sentence, and the opportunity to make up a sentence themselves using the word. I find that with my students who are Deaf/hard of hearing/ELL, when they make up sentences using each newly learned sight word, it helps them to remember how to spell the word, the meaning, and how it is used. My students love booklets of any kind that they can refer back to. Once they have come up with their sentences, they can include pictures that they print and cut out, draw pictures freehand, or find pictures in a magazine that they can add to each page of the 3rd grade sight word booklet that matches each sentence they come up with. This gives students the opportunity to connect what they are learning about in the classroom with their own personal interests. This booklet is perfect for students that are on grade level as well as students who require instructional information to be adapted.
If you are interested in the product above, the sight word checklist may be of interest to you as well.

End of the Year Student Certificates (Celebrating Character Traits!)
By Miss Yous Clues and Resources
This resource includes 30 end of the year certificates for students that focus on positive character traits. Each certificate has a cute, catchy title specific to a character trait and animal that it pairs to along. Additionally, each certificate gives a sentence that connects how that character trait is used by the animal in the wild. For example, the Enthusiastic Emu Award is given to a student for their boundless enthusiasm and energy, always eager to jump into new experiences like an emu racing across the outback! This resource gives the option of printing the awards with the animal picture within the medal or printing without pictures.
These awards are great because they praise positive character traits that we as teachers promote and praise daily. They focus on attributes that students can control versus success within specific academic subjects which can can be disheartening for students that struggle with academic tasks or have learning disabilities.
