ELA - Lyrics and Poetry - Analyzing Word Choice
By Amanda G
Nothing like catching two curriculum areas in one. This assignment will help you meet expectations in both music and language. Students are asked to analyze poetry and lyrics, both those used in class and those of their own choosing. The assignment has students looking at: * vocabulary used * structure * techniques * important words * feelings Students are also asked to consider how the poem/music is meant to be performed. They are also asked to consider the background of the poet/musician.
ELA Warm Ups: 30 Daily Bell Ringers | Spiral Review | Homework | TEKS-Aligned
By Amanda Robinson
Engage your students and strengthen their reading comprehension with this comprehensive set of 30 daily warm-ups.
I'm always looking for short, effective practice pieces for high-frequency skills that I can use with my students, but the nature of RLA is that most texts tend to be longer--so I created my own set of warm ups!
These warms-ups address high-frequency skills and spiral multiple times over the course of 6 weeks to give students multiple attempts to show growth on each skill.
What's Included:
Watch your students' reading skills soar as they master key concepts through repeated practice and application. These warm-ups are perfect for independent work, small group instruction, or homework.
Save time and energy while providing your students with the best possible reading support.
