This "Wanted"-style Classroom jobs slideshow contains 6 job descriptions (Chromebook Captain, Materials Manager, Time Titan, Board Boss, Grown-Up Greeter, and Attendance Aide). I have also included a job "application" with the listing (linked on the last slide). The slideshow and doc application are editable/customizable, so if you'd prefer to add or edit job titles, you're free to do so! I use these in my middle school classroom, but I can easily see them working out in an upper elementary clas

This packet is 3 pages (6 total including the answer key) of exercises to help students practice growing comfortable with latitude and longitude. The first page has students plotting coordinates and answering questions, the second has students filling in blanks through a matching exercise, and the third has students tracing a mouse's path to obtain a hunk of cheese. Depending on your group of students, I could see this utilized in a 5th, 6th, or 7th grade classroom. This file is an editable Goo

Students color in the drawing based on whether numbers are even and prime, even and composite, odd and prime, odd and composite, or neither prime nor composite (like numbers 0 and 1). An answer key is also provided.

This three-page packet comes with a three-page answer document. The first page gives students 6 sets of quotes and asks them to label which quotes in each set is a fact and which is an opinion. The second page asks students to label 15 statements as facts or opinions (a bit harder than the first page). The third page is the most challenging and asks students to read three different, brief paragraphs. Students are asked to underline the facts and highlight the opinions. This would be a great reso

Students work through this two-page assignment to double and halve recipes for a dinner party. A two-page answer key is also included. The link you will receive is to a fully editable/customization worksheet, so you could also change it to meet your needs! (Make some of the problems easier or more difficult, make the problems involve quartering recipes instead of halving them, etc.)

Students should work in pairs to fill out this checkerboard. They will need to identify some of their commonalities as well as their differences. I do this activity with my 7th and 8th graders throughout the year, and you could tweak it to best fit your own grade level. This product includes a blank template of the activity, as well as a completed one (shown in the product preview) to give students an example.

This clipart bundle contains exactly what you see in the thumbnail--a zip file of 10 different PNG images (on clear backgrounds, of course)--numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 0.

I use this with my eighth graders to review comma usage! This is a two-page activity with a two-page answer key. It covers commas used to address someone, commas with independent and dependent clauses (aka, when using FANBOYS conjunctions), commas with dialogue, and commas within a list.

I use these Google slides EVERY day with my seventh and eighth grade students! I use it as a daily warm-up, just to get their minds thinking and their pencils moving. (It could also be shared with them as an online journal where they type their responses.) I typically ask my students to write 3-5 sentences as a part of this daily warm-up, but it can vary based on the day or the prompt. This product is also able to be customized/edited, so you can change any days where you'd like to incorporate a

This is an activity I use with my 7th graders at the beginning of the year. Most of them know how to use apostrophes, but oftentimes they just forget to include them when they're writing. This is a great refresher for 7th and 8th grade, or a good learning tool for younger grades! This purchase includes a two-page document and a two-page answer key.

I use this assignment as a fun activity for my middle school students, but it could truly work for any age! Students roll online/virtual "story dice" to give them five objects that they must incorporate in a short writing piece. (I have my students write 200 words, but you can easily edit this document and have your students write 100, 400, etc!)

This is a two-page worksheet, and it includes a two-page answer key. Page one asks students to find the mean, median, mode, and range in data sets from certain short story problems. Page two has students construct a bar, line, and box-and-whisker graph from three other short story problems. This resource is fully editable/customizable, so you could change numbers or problems to better fit the needs of your students, if desired.

Students must correctly complete the maze, but they have to solve the equations they encounter along the way! There is a space for students to record their work, but they could also use scrap paper. This assignment helps students practice addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division skills for integers between 0-99. (I also have a simpler version available on my storefront for numbers 0-9.) You could use this with upper elementary students in class, or with middle school students as a bel

Students must correctly complete the maze, but they have to solve the equations they encounter along the way! There is a space for students to record their work, but they could also use scrap paper. This assignment helps students practice addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division skills for integers between 0-9. (I also have a more advanced version available on my storefront for numbers 0-99.) You could use this with upper elementary students in class, or with middle school students as

I use mad libs with my middle school students on days when we might have a little extra time, or occasionally on our early release days. This mad libs assignment focuses primarily on nouns, verbs, and adjectives.

This product includes six simple two-page scenes (12 pages total). Each scene requires 4-5 people (one character is always listed as "optional" for flexibility of class or group sizes). All character names are gender neutral, but the document is customizable so names or other parts of the scenes can be changed or edited. I use these scenes with my 7th and 8th grade students in ELA to talk about emotion in writing, which later leads to a discussion on Pathos. I split the class into groups and giv

This color by numbers helps students review the eight parts of speech (nouns, adjectives, verbs, pronouns, adverbs, conjunctions, interjections, and prepositions). An answer key is included.

This is an assessment I use near the beginning of the year with my seventh graders to review comma and apostrophe usage. It asks students to add the needed commas and apostrophes to ten different sentences, and an "rewrite the run-on" sentence serves as Extra Credit. An answer key is also included. (2-page assessment; 2-page answer key) This product can be edited/customized, so you could change certain questions, change the extra credit question to a required question, etc.

I use this assignment with my seventh graders to have them consider the role that setting plays in books, movies, television shows, and more! The assignment is roughly 2.5 pages long. Students enjoy the examples of films and TV shows that I've included, but you could easily edit the document to include or add examples that you know will resonate with your own kids!

This product includes one dozen (12) LEGO task cards. I've used this in STEM/STEAM classes, or to give my core content classes a brain break of a creative exercise.
