This is a quiz that can be used to assess contractions. It includes a variety of different ways to show understanding. Included is multiple choice, fill, rewriting sentences, and forming sentences.

These questions were created for my students to fill out as they read the book Home Run King by Patricia Mckissack. Students spent two weeks in literature circles and were typically asked to read one chapter out loud together and then read one chapter independently. They follow the same routine each day so they only had to learn the routine one day and were set for two weeks. The questions are self created so they range from text based to inferential questions. My students were expected to answe

This is a sorting activity that can follow a less on the suffix "less" and "ful." Students look at base words and determine which suffix to put the base word under. They will discover that some base words can go with both suffixes. After sorting, students record their work on the recording sheet and create a definition.

This is a wonderful hands on project that ALL my students were excited about. The final projects were amazing and showed the high level of engagement my students had during this project. The project was an extension to our area and perimeter unit. Students had to build their dream home using the guidelines I provided. It is leveled 1 - 3. ( 1 being the low group, 2 being an average group, 3 being for a high group) The pages look alike so students can't tell the difference. The levels become m

This was our school's best project of the year! During my biography unit with my 3rd grade class I had the students choose a subject that they would like to study and become and expert on. This would eventually be the person they turned into for our wax museum. We spent one month studying our person as part of our daily reading block. As a final project we wrote speeches in first person and put on a living wax museum. In this packet I have included the following: 1. A handout breaking dow

This assessment was created to measure my student's understanding of different concepts related to geometry (aligned to the common core). I gave this assessment as a post test to check their understanding from the unit. The following concepts are included in the assessment: -understanding of polygons -characteristics of quadrilaterals -identification of solid shapes -understanding of slides, flips, and turns -symmetry

I LOVE LOVE LOVE these multiplication games. I have uploaded three version. (Easy, med, high). The first page is the game board (copy on pretty cardstock, laminate, and use for years like me!) The second page has the directions. I double sided the cardstock and laminated the one page board. I've used them for five years and each year the kids love the game. It's great because they don't realize it's a trick game that takes forever to win. i have three levels so you can differentiate as nee

This is a sorting activity that allows students to practice finding pairs of homophones. Students find two words that sound the same and place them under the two headers (word 1 and word 2). They verbally use the words in a sentence and check each other's understanding. After they've found the homophones, they record their work on a recording sheet and create definitions for the words.

This is a great introduction (or summative) lesson for prefixes. After having students learn the meaning of re and un I give them this sort. In pairs they create the headings (which I copy on colored paper) and then cut out the based words and put them under the correct heading. There is a worksheet that I use for them to fill out once they've sorted correctly that makes them think about the meaning of the words before and after adding the prefix. My kids love the hands on / visual style of le

This packet includes comprehension questions in the form of short answer and multiple choice. I used it as a means to get both literal and inferential comprehension grades from students at this level. It goes with Reading A-Z book Good for Thurgood - level N. There is also a level Q set available.

There are three different sets / levels of world problems for students to work on it. They are challenging and require students to apply critical thinking skills to understand the problem and attack it! This is meant to use after students have a strong understanding of area and perimeter. My students love challenging word problems!

Attached is a one page homework page for parallelograms. I have included a general ed and modified version of the same assignment. Students are asked to write down attributes of a parallelogram and then identify them in an assortment of shapes. At the bottom students are asked to find the perimeter of a parallelogram (review from our last unit)

Attached is a one page homework assignment that supports students' understanding of quadrilaterals. Students are asked to identify attributes of a quadrilateral, identify quadrilaterals in an assortment of shapes, and then find the perimeter of a quadrilateral (review from our last unit)

This is a quick check in for lines and angles.

This was a card game that my kids loved! I put them in the erasable mats so they can reuse the page. I also have digit cards 0-9 that the kids use with this game. They flip three cards over and round to the the numbers to the nearest ten. I turned it into a game by handing out counters (points) and the player with the higher number (once it was rounded to nearest ten) earned a point. The kids played this game with rounding to nearest ten and hundreds!
