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

Do you need paperless morning meeting slides or paperless morning work that is engaging, raises academic achievement levels, and lowers behavioral issues?

This bundle includes

1. Morning Meeting Questions (180 slides)

2. Picture of The Day (180 slides)

3. Video of The Day (60 slides)

Morning Meeting Question Slides

What I do each morning is display one morning meeting question slide. Every student responds and we have a discussion. These 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."

Picture of The Day Slides

We use a picture of the day every morning during our morning meeting routine. The slides are projected on our screen for all students to see. 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. 

Additionally, the Picture of The Day can be used for writing prompts or centers. Students can look at the picture and write a story based on the picture. 

This is also an excellent resource to use with your remote learners as well. You could assign one or more slides to their learning management system for morning meetings and writing or reading activities. 

“Morning Meeting is an engaging way to start each day, build a strong sense of community, and set children up for success socially and academically.” -Responsive Classroom

“Morning meetings are an excellent way to help students transition from home to school and help them get ready to learn. In addition, these meetings can help you connect with your students, help students build relationships with each other, and promote an overall sense of community in the classroom.” -Centervention

Video of The Day Slides

The Video of The Day is on PowerPoint and can be used every morning during your Morning Meeting routine. All you have to do is bring up the PowerPoint each morning and play the video on the slide. There are 60 EDITABLE and DIVERSE videos! This is part 1 of 3, and part 2 and part 3 have numerous editable videos as well! If you would rather use a different video one day, you can delete the video and add your own! 

Students will infer, visualize, synthesize, and create connections with the videos.  Looking closely at a video is an important reading skill for students to develop to create inferences about what they are watching. Therefore, the inferences they are creating about the videos will lead to connections and inferences within their reading texts. Students who practice those skills outside of reading will most likely utilize those same skills while reading. You will need to teach students how to do that throughout the school year with the PowerPoint. 

Additionally, The Video of The Day can be used for writing prompts or centers. Students can view the video and write a story based on the video. The students may also write predictions on what they think would happen next if the video continued.  

This is also an excellent resource to use with your remote learners as well. You could assign one or more slides to their learning management system for morning meetings and writing or reading activities.

We NEED more phonics practice! But how do I fit it in? You can have the fluent readers you hope for with these Ready Reads Phonics Fluency Practice Activity Charts that provide quick, daily oral phonics practice. With step by step teacher directions, 186 charts over 43 lessons-this Ready Read Pack picks up where the Alphabet pack left off. This includes letter names and sounds review in isolation, and with words in each lesson. Skills covered are blends in context with CCVC and CVCC words, short vowel review words, the FLSZ Rule words, digraphs, long vowels in VCe words, soft c/g, compound words, word endings with -es, -ed, -ing, and words in open and closed syllables.

These activity practice charts follow the sequence of phonics skills introduced in the UFLI scope and sequence in a sequential, cumulative way to support ANY curriculum. Previously introduced skills/sounds stay on the charts for 8 consecutive lessons before dropping off. New skills/sounds are added after you explicitly teach them using your curriculum. Students keep their eyes on these skills/sounds as long as you need them to while building mastery.

Perfect for busy teachers, these easy prep charts can be used immediately in every lesson to build those automatic readers you went into teaching for. The versatility in using them in whole group with a projector, in small group as a warm up to the day's lesson, in centers reading to someone, homework, or in reading to self, makes these charts a powerful tool in your toolbox.

Take a peek at my preview for a better idea at what's included. My Scavenger Hunt series couples perfectly with this resource to provide another independent center with the same content to create a comprehensive double whammy of practice. Individually, you can choose from Uppercase/lowercase matching, Initial Sound, or the CVC, Digraphs, and VCe bundle. If your students are still learning their letters and sounds, you should start with my Ready Read Alphabet Fluency Charts.

• Scope and Sequence Aligned to UFLI (not endorsed by)
• Differentiation Ideas

• Mini Assessment or Progress Monitoring of sounds mastered

Common Core Alignment:

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.K.1a : I can follow words from left to right, top to bottom

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.K.2d: I can isolate and pronounce the initial, medial vowel and final sounds in 3 phoneme CVC words.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.K.3a I can demonstrate basic knowledge of one-to-one letter sound correspondences by producing the primary sound or many of the most frequent sounds for each consonant.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.K.3b I can associate the short sounds with the common spellings for the five major vowels.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.1.3 I can know and apply grade-level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.1.3b I can decode regularly spelled one-syllable words.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.1.3c I can know final -e for representing long vowel sounds.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.1.3d I can use knowledge that every syllable must have a vowel sound to determine the number of syllables in a printed word.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.1.3e I can decode two-syllable words following basic patterns by breaking the words into syllables.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.2.3 I can know and apply grade-level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words.

✏️CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.2.3d I can decode words with common suffixes.

How it works:

1. Before Starting:

Ensure students have already been taught the corresponding lesson explicitly. Ready Reads should follow the previously taught content in accordance with the Science of Reading principles, which emphasize systematic and cumulative instruction.

2. Using Ready Read Charts:

Whole Class: Display the chart on a projector or screen for the entire class to read together.

Small Group: Using printed copies, assign students a row to read. Students whisper read and follow along while another student reads orally. OR Side by side students work in pairs to read their line to each other while the teacher listens to each student in turn read.

Partner Practice: Students can work in pairs to read and support each other, holding each other accountable.

Partner Practice: Students can work in pairs to read and support each other, holding each other accountable.

Individual Reading: Students can whisper read the charts on their own, practicing graphemes, phonemes, or word blending or for homework.

3. Adapting Formats:

Use an “I read, We read, You read” model. Begin by modeling the reading, follow with group reading, and finally allow students to read independently. All student eyes should always be on the text.

4. For Pre-Readers and Early Readers:

Guide them through the left-to-right reading progression to help develop fluency with the letters and sounds they’ve already learned. This helps in recognizing graphemes and phonemes quickly, setting the stage for fluent reading.

5. Grapheme and Phoneme Practice:

For Graphemes: Students say the name of each grapheme (e.g., “digraph ch”).

For Phonemes: Students say the sound each grapheme makes (e.g., /ch/).

For Word Blending: Students blend the sounds to say the entire word.

6. Using the Different Versions:

Letter/Sound Charts: In each corresponding lesson, the first chart is the grapheme/phoneme chart. These charts spiral 8 different grapheme/phonemes from previous lessons, so students will continually practice them to mastery. Word Charts: There are 4 versions of each word chart through lesson 41 and 3 versions from 42-68 : Word Charts through C each include a different set of six words following the skill taught, while the last chart features a serif font. It’s important to use both, as serif fonts (especially letters like “a” and “g”) can look different to students in books, and they need to recognize these variations instantly.

Blank Chart: Use the blank Ready Read chart to customize content with specific letters or words that meet your students' needs.

Ready Reads are flexible, purposeful, and easy to integrate into your literacy instruction!

You will love it because:

You will love that it is done for you. No more scrambling to provide daily practice that curriculum companies miss. You will love the versatility of being able to use them in whole group, small group, in Tier 1, in intervention, as homework, with a para, in partners or in read to self. Knowing that these are aligned to a trusted phonics curriculum in a sequence that makes sense puts teachers' minds at ease. Ready Reads fluency charts come in multiple versions so words or letters cannot be memorized for repeated use. They are substitute friendly and ready to go.
