This no prep Google Slides project works perfectly with almost any middle grade/YA fiction novel. While students are highly engaged and thinking creatively they are simultaneously analyzing text elements such as the plot, conflict, resolution, theme, and point of view of various characters. This resource includes directions, an editable yearbook template, and a teacher exemplar in case students need ideas bringing their work to life. Integrates seamlessly to Google Classroom!

The ELA department at my school uses independent projects like these in our choice boards as students finish their work early. This would also be great to replace book reports or as an extension or passion project!

This blank value scale is the perfect activity for teaching students how to create a value scale. Multiple variations included:

• blank value scale
• labeled value scale
• labeled and unlabeled value scales with instructions
• questions about the value scale

This is a hands-on engaging activity for students. It can also be used as an assignment to redirect off-task students.

• Do you want an engaging Groundhog's Day activity covering science, ELA, and math?
• This engaging WebQuest and STEM challenge will help to foster collaboration among your students. They will work with partners and then in teams to find out about groundhogs as you act as the facilitator.
• They will use the information they get from the WebQuest to make a two-dimensional life-sized groundhog burrow with a groundhog in it.!
• If life-sized is too big (because it is huge), you can always have your groups create them half-sized (a whole new math activity). This is the perfect STEAM project to do in January as Groundhog Day is approaching!!

Discover an engaging Idioms Lesson Plan designed for Language Arts teachers to help students understand and interpret idioms, figurative language, and nuanced meanings. This comprehensive plan aligns with Common Core Standards RI & RL, focusing on word relationships and figurative expressions in academic and content-specific contexts.

Lesson Objectives

• Define "idiom" and distinguish its figurative meaning from the literal.
• Identify idioms in literature, specifically through a read-aloud activity using "More Parts" by Tedd Arnold.
• Translate idioms into their real meanings and differentiate literal vs. figurative interpretations.
• Foster creativity by having students illustrate both the literal and figurative meanings of idioms.

Materials

• "More Parts" by Tedd Arnold (Read-Aloud Text) (Video clickable link included)
• Crayons or colored pencils
• Idiom Drawing Handouts (included)

Procedure

1. Introduction: Engage students by asking if they've heard of idioms. Define idioms as phrases where the meaning isn't literal but understood as a whole.
2. Examples: Discuss common idioms like "It's raining cats and dogs" and explain their figurative meanings.
3. Read-Aloud Activity: Use "More Parts" to highlight idioms in a humorous context. Discuss the meaning behind idioms like "I'll bet that broke your heart" or "He nearly jumped out of his skin."
4. Class Collaboration: Brainstorm a list of idioms students know, compiling them into a classroom chart.
5. Creative Closure: Have students pick a favorite idiom, illustrate its literal and figurative meanings, and present their work.

Assessment and Student Outcomes Students will:

• Demonstrate their understanding of idioms by identifying, explaining, and illustrating them.
• Enhance critical thinking and creativity by interpreting and visualizing idiomatic phrases.
• Build a broader vocabulary and comprehension of figurative language.

This idiom-focused lesson plan combines literacy skills, creativity, and fun to deepen students' understanding of figurative language and enrich their communication skills.

These creative Art name tags were designed to be printed, cut apart, and attached to your student’s amazing artworks. These name tags have a line designated for the student’s name, type of artwork it is, and grade level of the student. Using these name tags makes it easy for handing back artworks to students after the art is displayed in an art gallery, art museum, and/or art show. As an elementary art teacher, I enjoy different color name tags for different grade levels, so I have created 6 unique color palettes per grades K-5th grade. I hope this helps! Enjoy.

Pablo Picasso was among the most impactful artists of the 20th century. He is recognized for co-founding the Cubist movement, creating constructed sculpture, co-inventing collage, and for the diverse range of styles that he contributed to and examined.

For approximately 80 of his 91 years, Picasso dedicated himself to creating art that played a crucial role in the overall progress of modern art during the 20th century, especially through the creation of Cubism (alongside artist Georges Braque) around 1907.

Picasso is often regarded as THE genius of the twentieth century. Possibly more than any other artist, he transformed the course of art, initiating the modernist movement. He was an innovator of Cubism, subsequently of collage art, and eventually neo-classicism.

This lesson plan centers around the artwork of Pablo Picasso. Numerous activities are provided, arranged in two worksheets. Their answers are provided in the end. Six of his most famous works are also included.
