Learning the Parts of Speech for High School and Middle School - while this might one of those building blocks for lower levels, students still need a refresher.

Why is this important?

• Common Vocabulary - When talking about the structure of a sentence, students and teachers need a common vocabulary.
• Improve student writing - when students see how adverbs and adjectives create vivid sentences, you can prompt them to work them in.
• Structure Matters - when talking about what's wrong with a sentence, we have to examine the elements that go into it.

What's Included:

• Powerpoint Lesson covering the basics
• Guided Student Lecture Notes during the lesson
• In-Class Games
• Anchor Charts for Class & Notebooks
• 3 Pages of Practice
• 2 Student Activities are digital
• 1 Quiz (PDF & Google)
• Gimkit & Kahoot Templates for easy uploading
• Tips for teaching ELLs/EBs

• My students had so much fun doing this, they didn't want it to end! Four Disney villains are being brought to court with charges and your students will either prosecute or defend them in "court":

• Ursula - The Little Mermaid: Fraud & Exploitation

• Scar - The Lion King: Manslaughter & Environmental Crimes

• Gaston - Beauty & The Beast: Attempted Murder & Inciting a Riot

• Lady Tremaine - Cinderella: Emotional Abuse/Neglect & Exploitation

Assign your students to be prosecutors and defenders with their own custom files. Each team has their own responsibilities and will need to craft their argument well to win the judge & jury.

-Reinforce learning of claim, support, point of view and more!

- Students need to support their claims with facts from the movie. Perfect for an argumentative unit!

*Lesson has been adapted with extensive sentence stems and examples. Teacher made examples are also included. This is a scaled activity that all students can do without too much teacher intervention.

This Sentence Auction Game is the perfect classroom activity to engage students while reinforcing essential grammar skills. In this interactive grammar game, students use fake money to bid on sentences. Some sentences are perfectly correct, while others contain common errors like missing commas, misplaced apostrophes, spelling mistakes, comma splices, subject-verb agreement errors, capitalization errors, and commonly confused words.

Students must identify and correct the mistakes to maximize the value of their sentences. The game ends with a winner declared based on the total value of the sentences they’ve collected.

This sentence editing game is an excellent tool for grammar practice, sentence correction, and peer learning. Ideal for middle school and high school classrooms, it’s a fun way to improve your students' writing and editing skills!

In yoga, the Yamas and Niyamas are a moral code of conduct—a guideline on how to live. Together the Yamas and Niyamas help us make careful decisions about how to think, speak, and behave. This foundational thinking prepares children to form healthy relationships with themselves and others.

Yamas include five (5) guidelines that support how we become a good friend to others, the world, and ourselves. Niyamas describe the principles of being a good person. Through them, we build character to us along our path to becoming who we know we truly can be. We learn mindfulness and self-discipline so we can be good citizens in the world.

These lessons plans can be used as a complete yoga class following the FGKY teaching methodology, or can be used in the home, easily adapted for the school classroom or clinical settings.

Using this 10-lesson unit, adults  (parent, teacher, or clinician) can facilitate conversations, games, activities, and yoga experiences that give children concrete information about each of the Yamas and Niyamas.
