Turning Back Time

This Bundle will get students ready to add and subtract fractions. I have included visuals and models to build conceptual understanding of fractions. This bundle scaffolds fractions to reach students at all levels. It can be used as an intervention, small group instruction, whole class instruction, before starting your fraction unit, or as a review and assessment. Enjoy!

This tool allows students to read on their own and to monitor their own progress.

Get kids writing while bringing Joy to their learning. Graphic Novels are all the rage with students, so let them write their own. This is a great activity for those early finishers, timid writers, and creative kiddos. It is easy to adapt a comic to any assignment while practicing the common core state standards. I have differentiated these strips to provide ideas for reluctant writers or newcomers who have difficulty with regular writing assignments. Includes: 9 comic strip templates
