Thesis Statement Table Foldable

Created by
Anna O'Connell
Encourage your students to fully support their thesis argument. If any evidence is missing, their table will not stand up! I've used this to teach thesis statements in historical writing as well as English class. The 3D manipulative and visual helps the concept stick in students' brains!

Thank You Fill In - Dinosaur

These are five thank you note templates I made for my son to fill in after his dinosaur birthday party. They gave him practice writing thank you notes without ALL the labor-intensive writing. Each has a dinosaur picture on the left side and a fill-in-the-blank thank you note on the right - fold them in half and you have a thank you card!

About the store

Experience

Taught grades 7-12 in English/Language Arts, Reading, and Social Studies. Currently an Instructional Coach with a Literacy focus.

Teaching style

I believe that learning should be engaging - everyone has an innate desire to learn, even if school sometimes suppresses it. If we can make learning transparent and engaging, all learners can be successful!

Awards & shining teacher moments

School Teacher of the Year, African-American Parents' Group Certificate of Appreciation

My own education history

BA in Journalism (Public Relations sequence); NC teaching licenses in English, Reading, and Social Studies; M.Ed in Educational Leadership; Coaching training through University of Pittsburgh's Institute for Learning.

Additional biographical information

While I continue to work with teachers and students in the upper grades, which I love, I also do a lot of work with my 5-year-old son at home to support his areas of interest and fan his natural spark of curiosity. So I'll share things I create from both areas!
