About the store
My name is Mrs. Dean, and this is the Dean's List! I only sell material I have taught in my own classroom, so it has all been tested! In my 15 years of experience teaching ELA, I have grown to love creating my own assignments and lessons. Hope you enjoy!
I have taught inner city high school for the past 15 years, but recently switched over to teach virtually (it's amazing!). My experience spans 9-12 grade and all different subjects/abilities. Over the years I have taught ELL, SPED inclusion classes, behavioral interventionist classes, AP Lang, creative writing, dual enrollment courses, and everything in between.

This is a lesson that addresses that. How do you make GOOD writing GREAT writing?? This is a google slides presentation that goes

Romeo and Juliet Debate

I have two different options of worksheets for you to choose what works best for your students. After reading Romeo and Juliet, students will develop and discuss their opinions on topics pertaining to the story. This creates a lively and interactive class period where students end their time by developing their opinions into
