This is for Shurley English Level 2 or 3. It is used to review the first job of a noun, which is a Subject Noun (SN). My students loved this activity, and so will yours! It requires very little prep for you. :) Print out the first two pages of the sentence hunt for each of your students and have them use a clipboard or other hard surface and a pencil for this activity. The third page contains the sentences they will be fitting into the chart. Write these on sentence strips with the correspondi

This is such a fun activity to review and practice multiple grammar skills. It works perfectly with Shurley English Level 3, when students are learning to use adverbs to modify adjectives and other adverbs. Includes prepositional phrases and different types of sentences. Instructions: Students may partner up or do this individually. Instruct your class to use books and other texts in your classroom to find all the sentences the worksheet is directing them to write down. You may tally up points

Hey there! I have found that practice tests are essential for success for anyone taking the Singapore math tests. This particular one is for Dimensions 3B Chapter 14: Time, Test A practice. It contains practice with time to the minute, word problems, a.m. and p.m. recognition, minute/hour conversion, and elapsed time. The practice test reflects Test A very closely, with concepts and problems similar to what they will encounter in the real test. Answer Key is included on the last page. I hope t

If your students need a little more practice with classifying sentences using prepositions, and adverbs that modify adjectives and other adverbs, this is the resource for you! This is ideal for Shurley English Level 3 learners.

If you are working with your students on capitalization rules taught in Shurley English Level 2, this is a fun activity for the students and very low-prep for you. Print out the capitalization rules sheets with the numbers at the top. Hang these around your room in various places. Print out one copy of the worksheet for each student and have them work in pairs to find the rules for each sentence. Directions for students (printed on worksheet): Start with any sentence. Write the rule numbers

If you are reading a book with the theme of friendship, or if you are teaching about how to be a good friend, use this resource! For our unit on Charlotte's Web, I had my students get into groups and practice elocution by reading the poem they chose aloud to the rest of the class. You could also use it as a memory work homework assignment. Includes 3 poems: The Arrow and the Song by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, The Spider's Web by E.B. White, and Hug O' War by Shel Silverstein.

Have students write their own math word problems to share with friends! This is both the planning and drafting portion of the process. The box at the left cut in half is for students to appropriately draw the part-part-whole model for their equation. I then let students write their problems in a book to have friends solve. They LOVE this activity!

This is a great enrichment activity to add to your math lesson. I have used it with three-digit subtraction so that the students understand that if a hundred is taken away from the hundreds place, it is adding a value of ten tens to the tens place. Students may use manipulatives or expanded form to check their answers.

This is a useful tool for guiding your students in summarizing. Once they are able to draw out the important ideas in the beginning, middle, and end, they are then able to put their sentences together to create a written summary that is 3-5 sentences in length.

Help your students become independent in writing summaries! This resource is especially useful in short stories, fables, or chapter summaries. I normally teach that the beginning should have the characters and setting, the middle is the problem and the ending is the resolution/solution. Help your students at first by stopping after the beginning chunk and allowing them time to write a main idea about that chunk, then doing the same for the middle and end. You can also have students think/pai
