You can either use a two inch or three inch binder to set it up and place all your dividers in. There are two coupon sorting sheets available. Rather than flipping through the pages in your binder to insert coupons which can take a lot of time, you can use the coupon sorting mats. Once the coupons are all sorted, you can then place them in your binder. Children of all ages can help with sorting the coupons. Many kids can also help out with gathering coupons and cutting them out. Have your students write about ways they can help their family save money. There are a couple of writing prompts that you could use to have your students share ways that they can help their families save money. This does not necessarily mean just using coupons. It could mean saving money by turning off the lights when not in use, not taking long showers, or turning in cans for redemption. Some kids might write about a job they do such as a paper route, mowing the grass or shoveling snow. Some students might choose to discuss buying items on sale at the store and not demanding expensive name brand items."Older students can work on the total amount of savings from using coupons. They can also work on figuring out percentages to show how much money is saved during each shopping trip and totals for each month.

A Mother's Day Card and Mother's Day Gifts are hard to organise when we are involved in distance learning and distance teaching. This pack of 180+ Mother's Day Cards (or pockets) templates will hopefully make organizing something special for our amazing mothers on Mother's Day a bit easier. I developed these Mother's Day Cards or Pockets because they are thoughtful, something a bit different and so easy to explain and share with our students when we are not in school. They can be shared as a hard copy or digitally and then printed at home.

These Mother's Day Cards (pockets actually) can be edited to suit different situations, countries and languages. Mum instead of Mom, Auntie or Aunty, Grandma - just edit - no worries!

1. Simply choose a pocket template (several kinds and loads of choices)
2. Edit the messages and instructions if you want your students to read or follow
3. Choose what kind of inserts or coupons you want to use
4. Again you can edit to suit what message or language you want

6. The student's can print at home, complete and have a lovely surprise ready for Mother's Day on May 10th.

Some decorating and a few thoughtful words from the heart and the "card" is ready to go.

Several children in one family could complete these "pockets" and they would all be different. Children can also complete for extended family too.

This Mother's Day pack can also be used in the years ahead no matter what grade level you have as there is a huge variety and choice AND you can easily adapt and edit them if needed.

180+ Editable Templates

Directions

Step 1: Roll the Dice

Begin by rolling the dice to determine the key components of your story. Use the chart below to match each dice roll to the corresponding element for your story. Record your results:

1. Monster Type (e.g., Alien, Ghost, Dragon, etc.)
2. Monster Appearance (e.g., Glowing red eyes, Slimy, Multiple heads, etc.)
3. Monster Power (e.g., Telepathy, Fire-breathing, etc.)
4. Monster Weakness (e.g., Bright light, Water, etc.)
5. Story Setting (e.g., Haunted mansion, Spaceship, Ancient cave, etc.)
6. Plot Twist (e.g., The monster is friendly, The monster needs help, etc.)

After rolling, students will have a list of elements to include in their story.

Step 2: Plan The Story

Now that students have their monster’s characteristics, setting, and plot twist, they will take a moment to brainstorm how these elements will work together in your narrative. Students should think about:

• How does the setting affect the story's tone or mood?
• What motivates your monster? What challenges will the monster face?
• How can the plot twist surprise or change the direction of the story?

Create a brief outline, if needed, to help organize your ideas.

Step 3: Write The Story

Using the elements from their dice rolls, students begin writing their story. They should make sure their narrative has a clear beginning, middle, and end. As they write, students will focus on the following:

• Incorporate all of the rolled elements into the story in a meaningful way. For example, if your monster has a weakness to water, this should play an important role in the plot.
• Use vivid descriptions to bring your monster, setting, and events to life.
• Develop your characters (including the monster!) by giving them motivations and emotions that will drive the story.
• Remember the plot twist—use it to surprise your reader and add depth to your story.
