Less than $5 6th Grade Writing Assessment (by rating)

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**⭐**

Don't forget to share with me how it went with your little ones. I hope it was useful in your classroom.

This product has 3 parts. First, there is a hi-lighting activity that requires students to go back into an Argument Essay they've already written and color-code the different essential parts of their writing. You could post this assignment on Google classroom or project the directions onto the Smart Board. The second part is a checklist for Argument Writing. You will make a copy for each student. The students could use it themselves for self- assessment, OR they could switch and use it for peer feedback. Finally, there is a very helpful chart that includes transition words for Argument Writing, including power words, transition words, turnback words, and counter argument words. You can copy this for all students, hang it on the wall, project it on the Smart Board, or post it on Google classroom. My students keep this in their binders to refer to all year long.

Please help my little business grow!

This is a bundle of two resources focused on Ellen Raskin's book The Westing Game. The first resource is a movement-focused comprehension activity in which students are assigned character cards and have to ask each other yes/no questions in order to figure out their classmates' characters. The second resource is a creative writing activity that student can complete right before they finish the book. Students should stop reading at the start of chapter 24 and write their own ending to the book.

This 3-page form asks students to specifically rate their performance on the 6 components of effective effort on a given essay: TIME, FOCUS, RESOURCEFULNESS, USE OF STRATEGIES, USE OF FEEDBACK, and COMMITMENT. This product is modeled after teachings from The Skillful Teacher by Jon Saphier, Mary Ann Haley-Speca, and Robert Gower and encourages a growth mindset in students. I provide this form to my students every single time I assign a paper and am always pleasantly surprised at how honest they are in their responses, especially as the incentive for guessing their grade is 2 bonus points! ____________________________________________________________________________ Also, check out this great lesson plan for teaching Effective Effort by Language Arts Excellence: ⭐Effective Effort Lesson Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ ⭐Click to Follow Language Arts Excellence⭐

ABOUT THIS RESOURCE

★ Writing Reflection Worksheets

★ 10 pages

★ Print and Digital

★ Great for ANY subject area

★ Suitable for Elementary, Middle, and High School Students

This resource includes:

★ 4 Writing Reflection Sheets (with and without graphics / 9 Sheets Total)

★ 1 Skills List Sheet

★ 1 Google Slide Link

*******************************

This resource includes 4 Writer's Reflection Worksheets (with and without graphics / print and digital) that give students an opportunity to reflect about the writing process and writing assignments they have completed. This product also includes a "List of Writing Skills" sheet, which lists a variety of writing skills that students can reflect about, have used, or need additional support in (when completing their writing tasks).

The list of writing skills sheet will help students select and reflect about skills that best apply to them. Often times, students don't know what skills to think about and/or consider unless they are presented with the skills at hand. This is an excellent tool for lower level students who need additional support in thinking about their writing.

✅ The worksheets contain amazing page borders, fonts, and clip arts - very visually appealing!

✅ This will be an excellent addition to a final writing piece about a particular book/text. I often display reflection sheets next to students' work on bulletin boards and with their final writing products!

✅ This resource includes both print and digital versions (with text boxes already created)! You can assign reflection sheets to students in person or remotely – either way works!
