Quadrilaterals should be easy, right? Maybe, but the vocabulary can make mastering these 2D shapes difficult for young learners. Teachers, you can print these and use them as classroom posters and give students a copy of the quadrilateral quick reference table for their math notebooks. You can also send home a copy for homework hints. I made this resource to complement enVision Mathematics: Grade 3 (2020), Topic 12, but it can be used with any curriculum. This 8-page product includes: one post

My students often struggled with word problems--even those that otherwise excelled at math. To help, I created this resource to enable them to unlock the underlying structure of every word problem. This resource covers the problem structures for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division word problems. Each problem has space for student work. Teaching tip: work through each problem as a worked example and follow-up with independent/guided student practice. I also had my students act ou

This 4 page resource can be used for any fictional or informational narrative text. "Understanding Stories" and "Understanding a Plot Line" can be given to students for their reading notebooks and referred to all year. The other pages give students space to write about the story they're reading. These worksheets can be used in I Do, We Do, You Do lessons; formative or summative assessments; and making students accountable for their independent reading. Page 1: Understanding Stories.

Teaching my 3rd grade students the Question-Answer Relationship (QAR) reading strategy was one of my most effective literacy practices. It worked so well, I taught it to my own kids, and then shared it with my teacher colleagues all the way up to high school. This two-page resource will help you teach and reinforce the QAR strategy. It can be used for reading instruction but will be useful for any teacher who expects students to read and answer questions about what they've read. Use it as a po
