PE and Dance Choice Board

Created by

I've created a digital choice board for student to complete at home for both PE and Dance. Students will choose 1 per day (M-F)This choice board is good for 10 days. When students complete one box, they click on the box. Then find the "fill color" which has the paint icon to color the box that they completed. When 2 weeks is complete, they can send it to your email to show it is completed. They can also send you a snapshot (picture to show what they did for the two weeks.)

I felt my GATE students needed more in depth and complexity reading comprehension short answer responses. So I varied my other product I purchased and added to it. The responses were so high level that I displayed it for my open house. Most of these questions are subjective and can be easily supported with evidence from the text. Good luck! FYI, There is one question that includes the book, The Great Horn Spoon. You can ignore this one, if you haven't read the story.)

Practice your map skills while incorporating Halloween. We have lots of fun creating our Halloween maps, game cards, and features on a map. When you finish making your Halloween map, play with a partner. And see how well your direction skills are. Make sure you use the compass provided to help you. If you are ready for the challenge, I provided a blank map for children that are ready to create their own.

Who says learning ca't be fun? I've combined Language Arts vocabulary key words with our 3rd Grade Social Studies Book and created a scavenger hunt. All you need to do is preview the words index, glossary, table of contents, among others. Then let the students do the rest. I had them work with partners for the first one using our Language Arts book, Treasures while being observed by the Charter School Supervisors. They loved it. Use it for a stull, but make sure the children are using the

Here is a unit I am currently working on. I had all my students observe the moon nightly. That was cool for them to watch. Then they charted the calendar each night and we reflected at the end of the week. I have also rotated my kids, so they have taken great notes, and I have started making large posters. We will go into the tasty Oreo cookies next. yum, yum. It's fun to get everything in - and have fu as well as the project.

I use this menu while sampling various books on Epic. After creating a collection for my students, they move from station to station while sampling a new genre. I gave them 15 minutes while moving to 6 stations. In addition, I gave them snacks to sample while sampling the books. It created an epic experience.

Wonder how you will take attendance? How about Zoom behavior? Well, here is one way to do both....at the end of your class, you can give parents or students a google form to fill out before leaving the class, kind of like a survey but they survey their zoom behavior and fill in the attendance form for you.

Have you ever wondered how children learn directions, or if they are naturally inherited? Even though we have a GPS, we still need to know the basic fundamentals. Children will create their own town and make a map game board to give directions. Their friend will get to play when they are finished creating the game, so the directions must be superb! In order to give good directions, children will use location, a compass, and travel down so many blocks to find their destination. The first ma

This is to help my students with the key skills on the upcoming test. It includes fourth grade skills such as text to evidence, main ideas and details, the essential question, and figurative language. I find my students having difficulty with the test in general, so I would like them to be familiar with some of the wording. The essential question in this unit is: What makes people view the same experience in different ways?

Here is a fun way to spend math on Halloween. I place 30 baggies filled with two handfuls of candy corn. Each child has a candy bag along with the Candy Corn activities. Usually parents donate3 bags of candy corn and that is sufficient. It's a nice day to add a Halloween twist to the day.

Isn't Thanksgiving a wonderful time to start a new tradition? It seems that not all children realize the importance of this holiday. In starting this new tradition, children write poetry and lead a discussion that gets their whole family involved. We start the boxes in class by decorating the boxes with RED, YELLOW, BROWN, AND ORANGE tissue paper. After that, the forms are attached and placed in the box along with a few other items. The directions are copied for the children to lead the dis

This is fantastic for review for key concepts needed for the year end test. For all your hard work, enjoy some tasty M&Ms, yummy!

I used this form when our school was getting reevaluated for charter school. When the administrative team entered my room, students paired up to complete this scavenger hunt using their Treasures part 2 textbook. They asked the children lots of questions, and the children were well prepared to answer them. One student replied "I am looking in the table of contents to find what page this story is on." Another stated, "I am looking in the index to find what pages I can find this topic." The
