Michelle's Materials

This is a complete packet of materials for a 25 day novel study (assuming class periods are 45 minutes each). This includes the lesson plans, text dependent questions, mini lessons, paired texts (authors credited), exit slips, Smart Board files, etc. The skill focus for this set is predictions, visualizing, main idea, inferences, making connections, etc. I used this in a reading remmediation class and it follows Virginia SOL standards.

This is the PowerPoint presentation I have used on the first day of school with my middle schoolers. The presentation includes 5 basic classroom rules with memes and room for individual policies. It includes an a warm-up as well as an ice-breaker activity on the slide and document.
