Start the school year off right by setting clear expectations with your students! This activity provides students with a sense of ownership in establishing "on point" classroom rules and expectations. This product includes an independent writing page for students and four scenarios to reflect on and discuss with a shoulder partner or table group. The four scenarios also require students to write to respond to them. I hope you enjoy!

If your students are anything like mine, they struggle when it comes to re-phrasing text evidence into their own words. I created this activity as a mini-lesson to help my students practice taking text evidence and excerpts from an academic text and synthesizing it. In this product is a notebook guide to review with students prior to the lesson, 10 task cards for students to practice, and a paired recording sheet. -I used the font KG Blank Space for this product. -All ideas are my own.

If your students are anything like mine, they can tend to get confused when it comes to differentiating between chronological and sequence text structures. I made this notebook guide to help them identify the differences and it has been very helpful!

Use this in your classroom to introduce or review homographs! A teacher key is included in this product as-well.

This resource can be utilized for a class discussion prior to reading about or viewing a video related to WWII. I personally have used this prior to reading a text as a class, and watching the BrainPop video related to the topic.
