Bundle and save with the All Things English Revising & Editing Workbook

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.

A unique lesson designed to have students participate in the learning process by continually drawing inferences and predictions of how each causal factor worked to increase the tensions between the colonies and Britain.

2. Creating an ‘Unjust-O-Meter’. Students will rate which of the causal factors were the most unjust to the colonists. Each group will defend and present their decisions to their classmates.

Materials:

• Teacher Reference Guide
• Google Slide Presentation
• Guided Notes & Answer Key
• ACTIVITY #1: Loop Diagram (criteria & grading rubrics)

The mood of a piece of writing is its general atmosphere or the array of feelings the work evokes in the reader. Every aspect of a piece of writing can influence its mood, from the setting and the imagery to the author's word choice.

► These Mood Graphic Organizers are an assortment of graphic organizers that can be used to help students explore and analyze MOOD in a piece of writing or story**.**

► Learning to identify the mood of a piece of literature helps improve comprehension. These graphic organizers vary in difficulty, which provides options for differentiation. The graphic organizers can be mixed and matched for an increase of difficulty. These graphic organizers can help students organize their thoughts when thinking about mood.

Graphic Organizers focus on the following:

⭐ Mood created by Setting

⭐ Determining Mood using Diction (Author's Word Choice), Imagery, and Setting

⭐ Inferring Mood using Details (including Character Actions)

⭐ Examples of Mood and Evidence

⭐ Why an Author Creates Particular Moods in a Piece of Work

⭐ Mood Impact on Readers

⭐ Mood Web

These Setting Graphic Organizers are an assortment of graphic organizers that can be used to help students explore and analyze SETTING.  Students will learn how and why a work’s time and place affects the events and/or the characters of the work. Often the reader/writer will want to consider setting as part of another form of literary analysis (extending the analysis of a character, for example). These graphic organizers vary in difficulty, which provides options for differentiation. The graphic organizers can be mixed and matched for an increase of difficulty. These graphic organizers can help students organize their thoughts when thinking about an author's message.

Graphic Organizers focus on the following:

⭐ Setting Analysis (Making Inferences about Setting)

⭐ Setting Impact on Characters

⭐ Setting Details and Whether Characters "Fit-In" Well
