When teaching my students how to write a personal narrative, I created this web to model what they must include when writing a story. The kids love the "problem" and "solution" because when they hear "problem," they respond "oh no!" When they hear "solution," they respond "phew!" This was very helpful with my ENL student population as well. I hope you find it useful as I did!

Included are 3 worksheets aligned to the NYSCCLS for grade 1 mathematics 1.OA.C.6 With the worksheets are answer keys. The last page is to challenge those firsties who can handle higher number addition and subtraction! Enjoy!

I used this worksheet for reteach instruction while teaching "Parts of a Whole" to my students. Students checked their answers with the provided answer key. Let me know what you think!

This scavenger hunt allows students to explore nonfiction text features! Students can work individually, in pairs, or groups to complete task.

When working in Readers Workshop, one focus for my class is making predictions. I put together this card so that students can record their predictions and confirm them while they read. Not to mention, when you laminate them, they can record their prediction with a whiteboard marker and erase it once their story is over! Enjoy!

After students read a book, they can work on this worksheet to demonstrate their comprehension of character feelings. Following, they will identify whether they received knowledge of their feelings from the text, pictures, or both! My ENL and non-ENL kids enjoyed it, and I hope yours do too! Enjoy!

This meets the NYSCCLS for mathematics 1.OA.C.6. It goes along with lesson 5.8 in the grade 1 GoMath curriculum.
