Do you need Morning Meeting Google Slides with Morning Meeting Questions and a Picture of The Day Slides for the whole year?

This is a bundle that includes 180 EDITABLE Morning Meeting Slides with beautiful backgrounds and creative questions and 180 EDITABLE Morning Meeting Pictures to share on a daily basis.

What I do each morning is display the Morning Meeting Questions, and I pick one slide to share and every student responds, which leads us to have deep discussions. I also share one Picture of The Day slide, and students are asked to infer, visualize, synthesize, and create connections with the picture. Looking closely at a picture is an important reading skill for students to develop to create inferences about what they are reading. 

The Morning Meeting Questions are higher-order questions that inspire thought-provoking answers. Additionally, I have built strong meaningful relationships with these slides!

"Higher-order questions put advanced cognitive demand on students. They encourage students to think beyond literal questions."

The topics and what is included:

• Differing questions for your students to enjoy, laugh or really think deeply about.
• “Should kids have to keep their rooms cleaned?”
• “Should kids get paid for grades?” Why?
• Morning Meeting Question Product- 185 Google Slide Pages
• Picture of The Day Slides- 180 Google Slide Pages

Perfect for learners who have IEP's requiring class notes, correctly completed examples, and graphic organizers.

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.

These are engaging and comprehensive units that allow your students to respond to the story by using a wide range of reading comprehension strategies and skills.

With comprehension questions and activities for each chapter the units can be followed chapter by chapter, with no extra preparation or planning required by the teacher. The responses in the unit have been planned and arranged so that your students will practise a wide range of comprehension strategies in context. They have been designed to promote thinking and understanding. Tasks can be completed independently, collaboratively or alongside a teacher. The units have been planned so that over the course of the book, students will become familiar with and well-practised in using comprehension strategies to make meaning from text.

Activities include:

• COMPREHENSION ACTIVITIES FOR EACH CHAPTER
• Comprehension strategies - inference, prediction , visualising, questioning, retrieving information, activating prior knowledge, making connections, summarizing, analysing, synthesising, understanding vocabulary in context.
• Literacy Skills - sequencing, cause and effect, main idea and events, compare and contrast, point of view, venn diagrams, writing, point of view, vocabulary work, idioms
• Story elements - character descriptions, character analysis, character emotions, character challenges, setting, plot, theme,
• Book response - creative responses, written responses, critical thinking.

All activities have been designed with student engagement at the forefront. In responding to the book, students will be required to think both within and beyond the text. Children learn best when they are having fun! Even better that they are learning the love of books at the same time!
