6th Grade Oral Communication Activities (by date, latest first)

This resource should accompany The Diary of Anne Frank by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett. Upper elementary, middle school, and high school students need reading fluency practice too, but we don't always think about it at these stages. This editable resource asks students to practice a passage directly from The Diary of Anne Frank and focus on accuracy, pace, expression, and punctuation. Students are asked to practice reading the passage to an adult. I have always had my students record themselves reading the passage at the end of a week, and I grade them using the same rubric that is on this assignment.

22 story maps for illustrating storytelling to writing activities. These hobby and life maps are excellent as first week icebreakers, using oral narratives to start the writing process, and learning more about students. Use as individual/small/whole group activities. Meets CCSS. Includes: Directions Example 2 Teacher Maps Singer Traveler (Local, State, US, World) Artist Baseball Softball Basketball Soccer Football Reader Writer Technology Music Dancers (Male & Female) Science My Life Story 3 Blank Story Map Templates Students will have fun while being engaged as they learn about their classmates, draw symbols for life events, write captions, and use storytelling as part of their writing process.

About This Resource

★ Social Skills Text Messages

★ Features 20 Text Messaging Worksheets in 2 Variations

★ Print and Digital (PDF and Google Slides)

★ Suitable for Upper Elementary, Middle, and High School

Teens today are constantly connected through their cell phones, with texting being one of the primary ways they communicate. While texting makes it easy to stay in touch, it also comes with challenges, as tone and intent can often be misunderstood without face-to-face interaction. Developing strong social skills for texting is essential to ensure that messages are clear, respectful, and considerate of others' feelings. By practicing thoughtful communication, teens can navigate social situations more effectively and avoid unnecessary conflicts or misunderstandings.

This resource features 20 different text conversations designed to help students develop their communication and social skills. Each conversation comes in two versions:

★ Without background information for students ready to respond on their own.

★ With background information included at the bottom of the worksheet to provide additional context and support for thoughtful responses.

The background information is great for students who need extra help understanding the situation and encourages them to respond while considering others' feelings and social dynamics. This format makes it easy to differentiate and meet students' individual needs.

Sample responses are included to support teachers in guiding discussions and providing examples for students.

This worksheet is perfect for practicing empathy, improving social skills, and learning how to handle everyday interactions with care and thoughtfulness.
