Vocabulary and reading comprehension questions for each chapter, a word search, crossword, venn diagram compare/contrast for Lale and Gita, a research project of the real-life person, and some essay topics. This is all in a Google Doc. There are answer keys for the word search and crossword, but not for the vocab or comprehension questions. The vocab words have students using context clues to determine the meaning of words, and some of the questions ask for student opinions or has students relat

These are questions for the 1996 movie film The Lottery. I intended these questions to not be too difficult but more so they could be used as notes for comparing/contrasting to the short story later on. There are obviously many differences, but there are some similarities.

This is a riddle worksheet that I made over mean, median, mode, range, and standard deviation. There are three sets of numbers (one for ages in a family, one for prices of cell phones, and one for city populations) and students find the mean, median, mode, range, and standard deviation of each. They match the correct answer and then write the letter at the bottom to get the answer to the riddle.

I did a Gothic Lit unit with my students. We read several short stories and excerpts from novels. Afterwards, we watched A Haunting in Venice so that they could pick out elements of Gothic Lit that appear in the movie. This is a Google Doc with questions about the movie, and after all of the questions are where students list the different elements of Gothic Lit that show up in the movie. We did a compare/contrast of the movie to the different short stories/excerpts we read. Since it's on a Googl

This is a riddle worksheet that I made for my Algebra students to review Zero and Negative Exponents.

I couldn't find an anticipation guide for Max the Mighty, so I created one to use with my class. It has statements or events from the book and students either agree or disagree with the statement. After reading the book, they then look back through the statements deciding whether or not they agree or disagree and find textual evidence to support their response. They also then write a conclusion about their thoughts on the book.

This is a brainstorming chart to help generate ideas for a personal narrative essay.

This is a worksheet to review working on multi step equations and equations with variables on both sides. It's a riddle one. An answer key is provided. Unfortunately, there's not really room to work the problems out on this sheet unless students do so on the sides or the back. I always tell my students they can use the back of the paper or copy the problems onto notebook paper and staple it.

This is a mini mystery that I made for my students. There are two versions of it for differentiation; however, the answer is the same. This makes it less obvious if a student has a different version from his/her peers. Students are to solve each problem according to the directions. Once they get an answer, they find it on the sheet and cross off that name or item. The names/items left at the end will go to fill in the blanks at the bottom of the page to solve the mystery. The easier version has

This is a sheet I made for my students for them to keep track of information about different characters in the story and to find definitions for vocabulary words. I put this on the computer for my students, so when they type, the boxes expand to the amount of room they need. They could be made larger if you want to print it off for students.

We read both the short story and the graphic novel of "The Flying Machine" by Ray Bradbury. This is a double bubble chart for comparing and contrasting the two. The center bubbles are for similarities and the outside ones are for the differences.

Spelling final /k/. Students are to read the words adding the final /k/ sound. The coding of the vowels (breve/macron) let's them know if it's supposed to be a short or a long vowel sound, so they know which word to spell. Then they decide if final /k/ should be spelled, "ck", "c", "ke", or "k" and write on the line. There is also a word search of words with the final /k/ sound. I couldn't figure out how to get the codings down (breve, macron), so this is a pdf file. There is an answer key as we

This is a graphic organizer in Google Docs for Expository Essays. Note: Students will need to double click on the box to type in it. They will then need to click save and close for their work to save since it's inserted as a Google Drawing.

This is a graphic organizer with the components of an argumentative essay. It is in a Google Doc. Note: Students will need to double click on the box they wish to type in. It will open up as a drawing. There are already text boxes there, so students will just need to click in the box to type. They will need to click on save and close for their work to save.

This is a commissions worksheet that I made for my consumer math class. Because we are limited to the amount of copies we make/paper we print, I posted this to Google Classroom and had them work the problems out on notebook paper. It is in Word, so you can always add more spaces, change the questions, add more, etc. to best fit what you need for your class. At the top are the definitions for different types of commission and then there are problems for students to solve. The answer key is on the

These are the questions for each chapter that students answered. They are all opinions and they also had to choose two from each chapter to respond to. Vocabulary words are also included where students were to use context clues to determine the meaning of the word. This was done on Google Classroom. I split them up from chapters 1-5 and then 6-10 and had students turn them in at those times, but they could be split up and done a chapter at a time too.

This is a Cause and Effect organizer that I made for George's Marvelous Medicine. Students will fill in either the cause because an effect is given, or vice versa. They can fill this in either as they read the book or afterwards. I had my students wait until we finished the book to do this, but they were also high school special education students that I did this with. Younger students might need to fill it in as they read and there are class discussions. Hopefully this uploads ok. The thumbnail

This is another sheet I made for students for my MR & S program. It had them matching to make compound words, fill in the blanks, and determining whether a word was a compound word or whether it had a prefix.

I had an adapted reading class where I used the Multisensory Reading and Spelling curriculum. This is assignment that I had students do. They had to add the suffix to the base word, and then determine whether it made a real word or not. If it didn't, then they put an x in the box. Suffixes used: er, est, age, able, s, ly, y, less, ing, or, ee.

This is a riddle sheet review that I made for my students over one and two-step equations. Half of the answers are negative because my students really struggle with negatives. An answer key is provided.
