Teach Tall Tales Using a Hybrid of Traditional and Virtual Methods With Your Students!

Are you frustrated when trying to find engaging virtual resources aligned with your curriculum and standards?

You know you need engaging technology resources that help students achieve learning outcomes, but what does that look like in the classroom and distance learning? 

I know you are tired of students CONSUMING information when using technology. You need already prepared resources to push out to students, aligned to your objectives, and allow students to showcase their depth of knowledge. 

I developed this digital interactive notebook to go with my tall tales unit and allow students to CREATE content.

Invest in Yourself and Your Students Today!

With this tall tale unit and digital interactive notebook, you no longer have to be frustrated by finding the resources you need to engage your students. Plus, stop wasting time planning and looking for support. This unit is what you need to teach tall tales to your students. 

This unit uses the 5E's of Instruction to teach tall tales. It includes the following:

  • Over 50 pages of resources
  • Characteristics of a Tall Tale
  • Anchor Chart Cards
  • Tall Tale Checklist
  • Lesson Ideas for Analyzing Texts
  • Scavenger Hunt Activity
  • Bookmarks
  • Tall Tale Character Research with Video and Website Links
  • Graphic Organizers for Research
  • Graphic Organizers for Digging Deeper
  • Link to create a copy of a digital interactive notebook

Tall Tale Stories Included is:

  • Annie Oakley
  • Paul Bunyan and the Blue Ox
  • Johnny Appleseed
  • Pecos Bill Rides a Tornado

Using 21st-century tools is the most effective way to differentiate and develop critical thinking skills with your students. When it's not the right time to use technology, these units have just what you need to use traditional methods when working with your students. 

You know that sometimes, students need to read and write without using technology. However, when you use digital interactive notebooks, students can use traditional methods and yet turn-in their work digitally.

Why You Can No Longer Afford To Ignore Using Technology In Your Classroom

  • Stop feeling anxious if there are times you need to teach remotely.
  • Using digital interactive notebooks saves you time.
  • Spend less time making copies.
  • Grade student work from any device.
  • Stop carrying tons of papers home every weekend.

All of this means more time with your students and with your family.
