Teaching Tides

This is a complete novel study to use while reading The Cay. I print out the notebook for each student and staple all the pages together (you can distribute pages daily if you wish). This interactive notebook includes: prewriting activity, daily reading journals, chapter discussion questions, reading quizzes, a word search to use with vocabulary from the novel, vocabulary chart, a study guide, a graphic organizer, and a final assessment.

This poetry test covers all of the major types of poems and different figurative language within.

This is a thorough review for the Poetry Unit in middle school. It goes along with the Poetry Test I have uploaded in my store.

I download "The Wounded Wolf" from the internet, and I created these comprehension questions to go along with it.

This is the Power Point that goes along with the notes on Reference Materials.

I have students create a foldable with the different types of poems. Here is the rubric that I use.

These notes go along with the Power Point when introducing a unit on Reference Materials.
