This is a pack of brightly colored chevron subject labels! It is a word document, so it can be edited very easily. I use these on my daily objectives wall so that I can write objectives for each subject. I also have the times on the bottom to easily accommodate a sub if needed. The reason that I have two math and writing is because we have a different schedule one day of the week!

This is an activity that I did to finish up my NBT unit. I had kids use one piece of graph paper and create an animal or creature out of base 10 blocks (graph paper cut into 100's, 10's and 1's.

Characters Setting Problem Solution Plot The watermelon represents the 'seed' of the story (usually the main idea) that I encourage my students to focus on. We slow down that moment and make sure to describe it in great detail for the reader!

This anchor chart and worksheet goes with RL1. I used this activity to get my kids to stop asking the silly questions that did not matter to the story. The anchor chart was used to make sure that they understood the difference between the two different types of questions. We then used the worksheet with a fiction story to come up with different big dig and small dig questions that pertain to the book!
