Winter & Christmas Middle School Holiday ELA Bundle 12 Resources Grades 5+
By TooBookedUp
NEW! Geography Easy-to-Use Substitute Teacher Pack + Freebie
By Geography & Math Made Easy
As you and I know planning for subs can be time-consuming and tedious. One might say that "it is easier being there than planning for a substitute".
Wouldn't it be great to have a pack of backup lessons from which to pull on short notice? Consider putting these in a binder that you keep as a substitute with other instructions, class rotations, schedules, emergency drills, events, etc. These can be used anytime during the year.
Includes 14 Lesson + 2 Freebies
More than 25% Off the Original Price
You save $15
Was $59
Now $44
Each lesson in this bundle has been specifically picked as they are easy to use for almost any substitute. These require very little preparation from the teacher and students can independently work on the lesson without much guidance.
These are great for those days when you don't expect to be out and need a quick backup plan.

LET'S CONNECT:
By Lara Hocheiser
In yoga, the Yamas & Niyamas are a moral code of conduct, a guideline for how to live. Together, the Yamas & Niyamas help us to make careful decisions about how to think, speak, and behave. This foundational thinking prepares children to form healthy relationships with themselves and others.
This bundle includes two (2) lesson units:
Both units are a PDF download which you can view on your phone, tablet, computer or print out onto paper.
This bundle contains twenty (20) lesson plans that can be used as a yoga class series, or easily incorporated into the school classroom. Adults can facilitate conversations, games, activities, and yoga experiences that give children concrete information about each of the Yamas & Niyamas.
Each lesson plan breaks down one of the Yamas or Niyamas and includes; introduction to that specific core value, a discussion guide, small group work or activity, breathing exercises and yoga poses to challenge and engage children.
How can kids benefit from learning about the yamas and niyamas? Our founder Lara Hocheiser discusses how to apply the principles of yamas and niyamas to children ages 7-11 in Yamas and Niyamas Webinar for Kids.

Figurative Language Passages and Four Corners Game | Close Reading | Mega BUNDLE
By Perfectly Planned Designs
This Figurative Language Short Passage BUNDLE includes every passage set in my shop with 3 close reading and writing worksheets each! ***Answer Keys Included!
Figurative Language Short Passage Sets are a no-prep, printable close reading activity that's perfect for middle school and high school. Each passage has between 206-226 words and is filled with between 14-19 examples of figurative language, such as hyperbole, metaphor, simile, and personification. I’ve found that although my students can tell me the definition of these terms, simile is the only one they can truly pick out in a text. As a result, their writing is filled with overused similes that need work! These figurative language passage sets are rigorous, use higher-level words and phrases, and in addition to merely identifying the different types, students will be asked to discuss the impact it has on the reader, as they’re asked to do on standardized testing. Simply print and go! There is truly no preparation needed, which is why this set is perfect to leave for sub plans, bell ringers, homework, test prep, review or assessment!
Four Corners Figurative Language Activity is a fun whole-group game or review activity. Your students will love moving around the room as you click through the 40 examples of figurative language, such as hyperbole, metaphor, simile, and personification. You will love this well-organized activity that allows students to test their knowledge, get exposure to high-quality examples, and even learn something new! This is an activity I use in my classroom every year during our narrative writing unit and I know your students will love it!
