Need a great, easy-to-use reading log? This was successfully used for many years when we had a time slot cut out for a 30-minute reading time each day. Students earn points towards rewards such as homework passes, computer time, or have your students earn point each six weeks or quarter for a special movie day event.

Getting students excited about poetry and figurative language can be difficult. I find that putting it into terms of music often with popular songs makes the process more enjoyable for them and myself. This product contains a powerpoint with links to videos, worksheets which examine both figurative language and poetry, and most of is an interactive lesson that will have your students singing while they're learning.

Do you teach 5th grade ELA? Do you need visual anchor charts to help students with strategies? Then this bundle is for you! This bundle includes anchor charts for all ELA topics, multiple strategies in each chart, colorful and visual, and directions on how to print the anchor charts.

Each Anchor Chart Includes:

• One anchor chart that shows multiple strategies.
• Directions on how to print and assemble anchor charts.
• Anchor charts included: Theme, Text Structure, Main Idea, Characters, Setting, Plot, Author's Point of View, and Compare and Contrast.

By purchasing this ELA Anchor Charts Bundle, you are saving $6.00 off the price of the individual units.

Je me sentais généralement insatisfaite du matériel et des ressources disponibles que je trouvais en ligne et dans mon école. Je trouvais que la plupart des affaires étaient axées sur le vocabulaire et moins sur la compréhension et l'application. Bref, elles étaient poches et ennuyantes. Mes produits sont engageants et à leur niveau!

J'ai créé un paquet avec chaque élément dont vous avez besoin pour enseigner la science en 6e année à vos élèves en immersion. Chaque unité est complet avec du contenu, des activités, des jeux, des documents, des projets intégrés et des recherches très attrayants. Ils peuvent facilement être laissés à un suppléant et ont été créés à l'origine pour que mes élèves travaillent de manière indépendante afin que je puisse travailler avec de petits groupes.

* Des centaines * de pages de contenu vous feront économiser d'innombrables heures de préparation, de création et de recherche. Vous économiserez également de l'argent en les achetant en lot!

Vous aimez ce que vous voyez mais voulez en voir plus? Envoyez-moi un message pour demander des cours et des activités spécifiques et abonnez-vous à ma boutique pour rester informé!

Prenez soin les uns des autres et AMUSEZ-VOUS!

One Story, Two Perspectives: Exploring Subjectivity and Empathy through Dual-Perspective Narratives 5-8

Description:

Dive into the world of subjectivity and empathy with "1 Story, 2 Perspectives," a unique collection of eight short stories, each told from two contrasting viewpoints. Designed for students in grades 5-8, this resource encourages readers to examine familiar scenarios through different lenses, fostering understanding, compassion, and critical thinking skills.

Each story features two distinct characters, such as the shy new kid and the boisterous class clown, or the driven athlete and the passionate artist. By presenting both perspectives side by side, these narratives invite students to step into the shoes of each character, exploring their thoughts, feelings, and motivations. As students engage with the stories, they'll develop a deeper appreciation for the role that personality, priorities, and life experiences play in shaping one's perception of the world.

But the learning doesn't stop with the stories themselves! This comprehensive resource also includes 20 thought-provoking activities and discussion questions, providing educators with a wealth of tools for extending the lessons of empathy and perspective-taking. From comparative analysis and writing prompts to role-playing exercises and real-world connections, these activities are designed to help students internalize the stories' messages and apply them to their own lives.

Key features of "1 Story, 2 Perspectives":

• 8 engaging short stories, each told from two contrasting viewpoints
• Suitable for students in grades 5-8
• Encourages empathy, critical thinking, and appreciation for diverse perspectives
• Includes 20 activities and discussion questions for deeper exploration
• Adaptable for various classroom settings and learning styles
• Aligns with Common Core Standards for English Language Arts

By exploring these dual-perspective narratives and engaging in the accompanying activities, students will:

• Develop a deeper understanding of empathy and subjectivity
• Recognize the importance of considering multiple viewpoints
• Strengthen critical thinking and analysis skills
• Improve written and verbal communication abilities
• Foster a more compassionate and inclusive classroom community

"One Story, Two Perspectives" is a must-have resource for any educator looking to promote social-emotional learning, character education, and the development of 21st-century skills. Download now and watch as your students grow into more understanding, empathetic, and open-minded individuals!

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.
