Laminate and cut matching activity. Students find the correct complete sentence answer to match with the questions being asked. There are 30 questions and answers, with an unacceptable answer already written and crossed out to show as a non-example. Find the correct one to place underneath/on top of the question card. I recommend splitting this up into 2 parts (15 cards at a time).
Everything you need to get started:
Student Bookmarks!
Students check off their role, which includes
a detailed description.
Laminate to use again with
different roles checked off.
Discussion Cube!

Inferring, Text Connections, and H.O.T Questions.
Response Worksheets!

Summarizer, Vocabulary Finder,
Story Mapper, & Question Writer Roles.

Hold students more accountable for their writing. The teacher and student both grade and discuss their writing together. This rubric allows for the student to set new writing goals and note words they need to practice. I included a line for a parent's signature as well. I use this when meeting one on one with each student after they complete each writing assignment. I staple a copy to their writing and keep in a writing portfolio made for each student. The student's points can add up to 15
