Star Student - monthly

This is a bundle of the student of the month printouts I created for my class this year. I do work at a small Catholic school and a couple of the images used from Canva are related to a Catholic holiday during the month. I am working on creating new versions as well that are without any religious holiday images as well as a weekly version instead of monthly.

Star Student Family Letter

I created these letters to go home with students at the start of "their month". I decided to do a student of the month this year as I have such a small class at the Catholic school I am at. I did list dates for the current school year on here (I am working on a new version that would be editable - I am also working on a version of these that would be more for a student of the week, rather than the month). The dates for their special treats are coordinated around breaks as much as I could so real

Student of the Month

I have a small second grade class this year and I wanted to do something extra special for my class. Instead of a "student of the week", I chose to do a "student of the month". I focused on making each award card themed to the month. (I do work in a Catholic school, so these do have a couple of small pictures in reference to major Catholic holidays for a couple of the months - a version without these is coming soon!!). This includes the months of October to May (the other version will include al

Distance Learning - Virtual Field Trips

Created by
SMA
With distance learning going until the end of the year, I wanted to offer some fun experiences for my students. Since we were unable to take any actual end of year field trips this year, I thought this was a great alternative. There are some absolutely amazing virtual field trips and experiences they can choose from. I also created my own set of questions for each one. This is how I am choosing to end the last 2 weeks of distance learning for all of my middle schoolers. I think it is a great way

I created a project for Newton's Laws of Motion for my middle school physical science students to complete. Originally, I had it planned for at school and working in groups. With not being in the building at this time, I had to adjust and turn it into an individually completed project. I have provided a basic idea of a schedule for which steps should be completed by which day. They are using Google Classroom to complete the pages for each step and they will use Google Classroom to upload the fin

To go along with the Winnie The Pooh decor I created for my classroom this year, I made up some small anchor charts as well. I printed all in color, some on 11x17 large printer paper, some on regular 8x11 printer paper & laminated each one so they last. Some of the math ones are meant to be cut in half. *PLEASE NOTE: I do NOT own, nor am I charging for, any of the images themselves. I found them via Google.

Virtual Science Fair - distance learning

SMA
Since we are unable to host an end of year science fair this year, I created this virtual science fair option instead. We are allowed to have students record a video and submit to Google Classroom or, in this case, attach to a slideshow presentation. I am able to have all my students, 6-8, participate because I do work at a very small school.

Women in Science Project

SMA
I stumbled across a number of photographs of women in science over the years. I was inspired to create a project based on these photographs (which I am hanging around my classroom). You can use any female scientists you would like. I made sure there is enough I can assign a different one to each student, however I do have fairly small classes (I am using this with my 8th graders - there are 6 of them - and my 7th graders - there are 12 of them). The goal is to inspire my students, get them excit

I created this little mini book for my students to learn about different types of maps in our geography unit in social studies. I print this 2 sided, flip on the long edge, so the pictures of each type of map is next to the reading about that type of map. They typically work with a partner on this and there are comprehension questions at the end of the packet.

I created this slide show all about space for my 6th graders. They worked on it in school at the time and worked together for some of it. They could absolutely do this at how though as either a homework option or a distance learning option. There are passages and videos throughout the slideshow with a question or two to answer for each slide. This could also be used as extra reinforcement during the space labs from the new lab books. Also included: answer key, so you know basically what informat
