Template that can be used for a cinquain poem. This template includes space for a mini illustration and also includes a line for the poem title and the student's name.

This writing prompt template can be used with the book, Elmer, written by David McKee, or just for a writing prompt in general. I use it with my Kinders after we read and discuss the book, Elmer.

Use this checklist with your students to allow for typing practice, navigation practice, and developing map skills. Students will check off each location as they visit and explore in earth view and street view. There are 20 total locations throughout the USA listed on this quest. There is space for students to describe each location in their own words as well. Following the quest, there are some questions for students to answer. I used this with my 2nd Graders and they absolutely loved it!

This template can be used for an acrostic poem. I used this acrostic poem as an authentic assessment after a cross-curricular study on bats. The preview includes one of my past bulletin board displays of a BATS acrostic poem. The project included the acrostic poem and a bat craft for their final display. Students traced their hands on black construction paper to make the bat wings.

This PDF includes a writing journal cover page with a journal writing page. The journal writing page includes a box for a quick sketch or mini illustration, date, writing lines, and 3 self-assessment/self-checks. I used this with my 1st grade students and they LOVED it. They enjoyed being able to do their "self-checks" and checking off the boxes as they proofread and edited their journal entries.

These task cards can be used in several ways. The task cards can be used as a whole-group SCOOT or a small-group math station. Depending on the skill you are working on, you can either have the students draw the Base Ten blocks on the recording sheet OR have them write the Expanded Form of the number. You may also have the students write the word form of the number! The possibilities are endless! All you need to do is print the cards out and laminate! Each student will also need a recordi

This template can be used for a quick creative writing piece. Give each student a Hershey's Kiss and let their creativity go to work! The students will tape or glue the Kiss wrapper and then illustrate their creation. (ex: Turn the wrapper into a crown)

I created this for my Math Workshop display. It allows my kids to have a visual understanding of their rotations during our Math Workshop time. I printed everything on cardstock, cut it all out, glued on construction paper, and laminated. I glued the rotations according to how I wanted them to rotate. The "shapes" are my group names. An example of a rotation is for my "hearts" group. (They are my lowest ability-level group.) The "hearts" start at Teacher's Table, At Your Seat, Hands On, M

This little book is an emergent reader for the letter C. It features the following sight words: we, see, the I use this with my Kinders and they love it. Each page is blank so it allows them to illustrate each page. This is a PDF file. I created the document so each file would create TWO books. Pages need to be cut in half and stapled to made into books for the kids.

I use this recording sheet for compound words word work. I laminated the Carson & Dellosa Ice Cream & Cones cut-outs. My students have to match up the ice cream with the cone to create a compound word. (i.e. play + ground = playground) As they match up the ice cream cones, they record their words on this recording sheet. It makes for an excellent word work lesson in small-group or one-on-one.

I use this when teaching place value and numbers in base ten with my 2nd Graders. I let students choose a number out of a bag or roll a number with 2 dice or double dice. They write the number in the center, then fill out each section of the page accordingly. It can be used as an assessment, review, or small-group practice page.

I use this sorting page to allow my students to become comfortable with our word wall at the beginning of the year. I use it as a morning warm-up or it can also be used as a literacy center/word work center. Doing this will ease them into utilizing our word wall more and more.

This template can be used for a mini-writing lesson after Thanksgiving break. It can be turned into a short poem or a mini-narrative. I use these 5 sense-writing formats to emphasize the importance of word choice (descriptive words, adjectives, detail, etc.) and to review appropriate verb choice after each sense.

I created this recording sheet to go along with a Boxcars and One-Eyed Jacks game. The game is titled From A to Zee and is found in the "On a Roll...to Spelling and More!" on PAGE 18. I wanted to create a new template that was bigger so my kinder students would have an easier time reading and writing the letters. The Box Cars and One-Eyed Jacks books/resources are fabulous and I suggest everyone check out the website. The books and the manipulatives are for purchase. I recently purchased
