Battleship  Remember playing Battleship as a kid? Miss. Hit. Hit. Hit. SUNK! This digital or paper version of this game can be used alongside your curriculum as a fun way to practice math, reading questions, grammar, anything!!  Which game board Options do I use?

I used these character "baseball" cards as a way to talk about character traits while reading "Because of Winn Dixie." They could be used for any fiction story, however, and the students loved being able to do some artwork with their reading. The cards have two sides; I coped them front-to-back, then cut them in half. FRONT: -Illustration -Position (job/role) -Alias (nicknames) -Famous quotes (things the character said that were memorable) BACK: -4 squares to describe 4 difference character

It is meant for students to reflect on their own choices, not necessarily on the choices of the sub. :) Page one contains the rubric and page two contains several questions about the choices made, if they think the guest teacher will return, if a fair consequence is needed (and what it might be), and if there is anything I should know about the guest teacher.

We have been working on an environmental essential question for the past 6 weeks in my 4th grade classroom. I was wanting to have the students write an opinion letter about a problem to the businesses or people responsible. That's how I came up with this graphic organizer.
