May 2021- Updated with answer keys! Ecosystems- Competition, Symbiosis, Food Chains & Webs Graphic Organizer A helpful notetaking guide to use when teaching about how organisms interact and how energy moves in an ecosystem. I have my students draw and label pictures in the examples section. This download includes the graphic organizer and two completed student examples.
I've updated my Decimal of the Day sheet I use in my fifth grade math class to include a space for expanded form with exponents (as required by Common Core Math).
Fonts found on dafont.com; Decimal of the Day idea modified from the Number of the Day/Daily Data from AMSTI Math
Biome Project Rubric with Instructions and Questions
Includes:
-1 page rubric (copy on colored paper so the students don't misplace) based on a 4 point scale
-2 pages of biome questions with graphic organizer for students
Designed to be done independently but could be a group project.
Student Behavior Plan (Actions/Rewards and Actions/Consequences Format)
This plan follows an if/then format where the action is listed and a reward or consequence follows. The form includes a sample and a blank PDF file that you can customize. This form serves as documentation for PST or IEP Referrals if completed/followed properly.
Let me know if there are any changes you'd like me to make for you. :)
Designed to be used with Scott Foresman Science Grade 5, but could be used with other series. When we use this during STEM stations, the students use the iPad to research the topics as well as use the textbook.
Great way to incorporate Strategic Teaching strategies into Science content area instruction.
This chart is perfect to use when a whole class switches together to another teacher's room.
Good for "Teaching Families," team teaching, or STEM/Humanities split classes.
The chart travels with the class on a clipboard.
Warnings and bathroom breaks recorded so that the same student is not getting 1st warnings from all his/her teachers.
Ensures consistent discipline across all classes/teachers.
Use this behavior chart for students who have behavior intervention plans or any student who needs reminders throughout to day to monitor his/her behavior. There are columns for on-task behavior and completion of work. The first example is what I use in my class, but there are several other examples and blank charts as well. Let me know if you have any questions.
Could use with AMSTI Ecosystems Kit or Ch. 5 of Scott Foresman Science text.
Based off of the most recent Alabama Science Assessment Item Specifications.
Goes with the other Ecosystems products I have posted. :)
UPDATED- answer key now included :)

I teach a 5th grade Math/Science block and one Grammar/Spelling block. This is the lesson plan template I use. There is also a blank template where you can fill in your subjects.
Fifth Grade Science Alabama COS Posters
Posters can be used to teach the Alabama Course of Study Science Objectives for 5th grade.
I printed these out, hung on my classroom wall, and put a check mark on the poster when we covered that objective. It's a great way to see the progress you're making throughout the year.
Also, many posters are set up so that you can easily turn them into Foldables or use in Interactive Student Notebooks. I print 2 to a page before I copy them for ISNs.

This rap makes remembering how to round easier. I know a number of teachers use variations of this song, but this is the one that I use. They are printed on 1/2 sheets so that they fit in the students notebooks
I reformatted the ASA item specs into a test on Concave and Convex lenses. This graphic-rich test is excellent prep for the Alabama Science Assessment.
Preamble to the Constitution Grading Rubric and Check-Off Sheet *Updated 4/4/22 with corrections* "Memorize the Preamble to the United States Constitution using the resources provided by your teacher (songs, PowerPoints, hand motions, etc.). Practice at least one time all the way through with a parent or guardian. You will be tested one-on-one with your teacher on ____________." Can be used with this video from School House Rock- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtYrorYu9OEAnother good resource
Use these cards to review the scientific method with your students. The students cut the cards apart, match the term with the description, and glue them in their science notebooks. There are several font styles in this file. All fonts are from dafont.com
Before, During, and After Strategies List for Strategic Teaching
A full complied list of Before, During, and After Reading Strategies to use with Strategic Teaching lessons. (ARI)
I laminated the cards, hole punched them, and put them on a ring to hang on my front bulletin board. Now it's easy to display the stragies we are using.

Have the students glue the math notebook guidelines in the front of their math ISNs (Interactive Student Notebooks) at the beginning of the year. Use it as a reference when grading/checking student notebooks.
