Less than $5 Unit Plans (by date, oldest first)

This unit was designed (and taught) for a grade 5-7 mixed ability group.

If you want to get your students to think about the world around them and understand that everyone in the world has the same rights, but not everyone actually gets those rights, this is the unit to do this. Using explanatory writing as the genre of writing, students learn about the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, while learning how to write different explanatory writing formats.

This unit includes links to required media, a teach guide (with 21-day timeline) and a student book to get you started. The final assessment questions are also provided. Rubric/success criteria are to be developed with the class (I do not provide rubrics because of the differences in curriculum).

NEW IN 2021: Rigorous! Thought-provoking! Discussion-Based! This 40-page EDITABLE mini-unit promises to elicit dynamic engagement from all students without compromising on intellectual rigor. The discussion questions, quizzes on poetic devices, and analytical writing assignment will challenge your students to dig beneath the surface of Elizabeth Bishop's poems and generate profound interpretive insights!!

Here are some highlights from this 40-page curriculum:

• 10 Poems by Elizabeth Bishop: The 10 poems in this mini-unit feature Elizabeth Bishop's best works of poetry: "The Fish," "In the Waiting Room," "One Art," "The Man-Moth," "Sestina," and more. The 10 poems are split between two Homework Packets, with each packet featuring 5 poems. (12 pages)

• Discussion Questions: This bundle features a list of discussion questions for one poem from each of the homework packets. The discussion questions will ensure that every class discussion starts on a productive note. Every discussion question is grounded in concrete textual details and challenges students to arrive at lucid interpretive insights! The questions lend themselves to a range of different pedagogical uses: 1) to focus students’ thinking prior to beginning a discussion, 2) to prompt in-class writing, 3) to assign written reflections for homework, etc. Guaranteed to elicit student engagement and foster deep thinking! Answer keys included. (10 pages)

• Quick Writes: The quick writes give students an opportunity to capture and refine the best ideas generated in the discussion. Quick writes can also help reticent students to gather their thoughts so they'll feel ready and eager to contribute. (2 pages)

• Literary Devices Quizzes: Open each class with a quiz of 10 questions to assess whether your students can accurately identify the literary devices used in the poems from the homework packets: metaphor, personification, symbolism, imagery, alliteration, etc. Answer keys included. (4 pages)

• Literary Devices Glossary: A glossary with definitions and examples of the various types of figurative language, imagery, stanzas, and syntactic devices. Many teachers already have a glossary of literary devices, but I'm providing this in case you need one. (2 pages)

• Analytical Writing Assignment: Challenge students to take their interpretations one step further by writing an analytical paper on a poem of their choice. The assignment sheet contains detailed instructions for how to generate a formalist analysis of a poem (analyzing how the poem's formal features contribute to its meaning). This kind of formalist analysis is exactly what students are asked to generate on the AP Literature exam! Sample paper included. (3 pages)

This 40-page unit will come to you in two separate formats: Word doc *and* PDF. Because the Word doc is fully editable, you'll be able to customize the materials to suit your teaching style and/or the skill levels of your students — year after year! If you don't have Microsoft Word, you'll still be able to access the entire unit as a PDF file, which is easy to navigate and quick to print!

Because I believe that teachers should be able to see exactly what they'll be getting before they purchase, the preview for this resource allows viewing accesses to 20 pages. Click on the green “preview” button to see exactly what you’ll get. . . .

Thank you for choosing “Rigorous Resources”!!

A brand new follow up to the Rainbow Recorder series, the 2K15 series!

This version of Rainbow Recorder focuses on 9 original compositions that your new (and even advanced) recorder students will love. We bring it back to the beginning and learn how to connect the lines and spaces on the staff to note names and have students begin to memorize the notes, rather than the letters. We gradually scaffold into more difficult music by adding on new notes and rhythms.

Included, you will receive a 9 page PDF file (reproducable for your students or as a teacher guide) and 9 accompaniment tracks for each "belt". Your students are GUARANTEED to love these with lots of original hip hop background tracks (you would never know how cool playing a whole bunch of A's and B's are until you play along to this!) ;) Beginning at the Purple series, there is a beginning and advanced mp3 in case you have a superstar student who wants to tackle the advanced version (which is about 25 bpm faster than the regular version)

An alternate version with the note names are available, please contact me at jasonlitt@gmail.com if you'd like that as well.

As always, please feel free to let me know if you have any questions and enjoy!

Vos élèves exploreront la stratégie de la visualisation et apprendront à intégrer cette stratégie dans leur lecture. Ce document couvre deux semaines d'atelier de lecture.

⁕⁕ Please see the preview for a full view of this document, with details in English. These descriptions and this product are entirely in French. ⁕⁕

Cette ressource est conçue pour les élèves de la 4e à la 8e année qui manquent cette stratégie et ont besoin d'aide pour s'investir et s'engager dans leur lecture. Mes produits proposent beaucoup d'apprentissage pratique et une approche ludique. Vos élèves ne rempliront PAS de fiches ici. Ils seront activement engagés et impliqués dans ces leçons, et seront plus enclins à donner le meilleur d'eux-mêmes.

Dans cette ressource, vous découvrirez 37 diapositives de contenu adaptées à vos grands élèves. Pas de polices bébé ou ridicules. Pas de clip-arts enfantins. Pas de mots croisés ou d'activités de remplissage. Je vais droit au but et vous donne tout ce dont vous avez réellement besoin pour progresser.

• 9 organisateurs graphiques
• 2 tableaux d'ancrage
• 8 textes modèles
• 8 mini-leçons prêtes à l'emploi (Je vais même jusqu'à écrire vos paroles et vous fournir tous les exemples, questions de guidage et prompts pour vous garder sur la bonne voie !)

Voici les stratégies que je couvre dans cette ressource de 37 pages :

• Introduction à la visualisation (Les élèves comprendront les bases de la visualisation et seront guidés à travers des leçons et activités modelées pour les préparer à réussir.)
• Se créer des images mentales (Les élèves comprendront comment utiliser des mots et des dessins pour partager leur perspective sur ce qu'ils lisent.)

• La grande bulle de pensée collective ! (Les élèves travailleront en groupe pour co-créer une bulle de pensée regroupant toutes leurs perspectives.)

Planifier des mini-leçons efficaces nécessite beaucoup de temps et d'efforts pour créer des affiches, des textes modèles, des exemples, rédiger vos petites lectures partagées sur des post-it et planifier des activités de différenciation. Cette ressource couvrira tout cela pour vous pendant deux semaines. Alors détendez-vous et profitez de la conduite d'une mini-leçon tout en regardant vos élèves adorer le cours de français.

Mes élèves de 6e ont vraiment eu du mal avec le concept de conversion des mesures. Ce document de 40 pages vous permettra de l'utiliser pour enseigner en ligne ou pourra être utilisé en classe.

Si vous l'utilisez pour l'apprentissage en ligne, selon la plateforme de visioconférence que vous utilisez, ouvrez simplement les diapositives et partagez votre écran avec vos élèves; enseigner comme vous le feriez normalement en classe. Si vos élèves n'ont pas accès à la visioconférence pour leur apprentissage en ligne, envoyez-les les diapositives pour qu'ils travaillent à leur rythme et en vous soumettant les réponses aux questions intégrées dans les diapositives.

En classe, projetez simplement sur votre tableau blanc ou votre tableau intelligent et les diapositives vous guideront pour travailler lentement sur ce concept qui déroute souvent les élèves.

Dans cette ressource, je couvre en profondeur :

• Le système impérial et le système métrique,

• Comment choisir la bonne unité de mesure selon l'objet en question,

• Qu'est-ce qu'une unité de mesure (et pourquoi nous l'utilisons),

• Différentes méthodes de mesure des différentes unités de mesure,

• Un petit "jeu" pour les élèves sur les unités de mesure,

• Comment convertir et pourquoi nous convertissons,

• Conversion et équivalence,

• La notion de multiples et sous-multiples du mètre,

• La conversion d'une unité de mesure plus petite en une plus grande, en utilisant la multiplication,

• La conversion d'une unité de mesure plus grande en une plus petite, en utilisant la division.

Mes produits permettent à mes élèves indépendants de commencer leur travail lorsqu'ils se sentent prêts, mais fournissent à mes étudiants qui ont du mal l'instruction supplémentaire de se sentir en confiance. Si cela ressemble aux besoins et à la démographie de votre classe, ce produit (et tous les autres de ma boutique) seront parfaits pour votre situation.

Comme toujours, votre confiance en moi est vraiment quelque chose d'autre. Je vous apprécie tous.
