This low-prep language arts, health, and life skills resource was created as a way of helping 4th, 5th, and 6th grade students sharpen their vocabulary, comprehension, writing, and oral language development skills by reading and answering a series of questions related to Red Ribbon Week and the importance of taking a committed pledge to living a drug-free and alcohol-free life. How It Works: Either whole class or within a small group setting, students are presented with a set of Just Say No! and Red Ribbon Week task cards. For task cards #1A-#26A, multiple choice questions are read and answers are recorded (on a separate answer recording sheet) as a, b, or c. For task cards #1B-#26B, a question or statement is read and answers are written (using complete sentences and details) on a separate answer recording sheet. **PLEASE CHECK OUT PREVIEW TO GET MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS RESOURCE** What's Included? *Four (4) Just Say No!

TIP: Feel free to copy the pages of your choice on bright, colored paper to give them a look that “pops!” *All cards have been produced four (4) to a page--paper saver! In addition, there are perforated lines between all cards for easy cutting. Easy-peasy! *REMINDER: TWO (2) answer recording sheets are included with this resource. When completing task cards #1A-#26A, students should record their answers as a, b, or c. For task cards #1B-#26B, answers are to be written out using complete sentences and details whenever possible. SUGGESTION: Depending on the academic levels of your kiddos, you may wish to have them write out their responses using the Just Say No! Answer Recording Sheet for task cards #1B-#26B OR regular lined paper. Remember, you will need to make copies of the recording sheet on an as-needed basis, as there is only one (1) original included with this resource. *Writing and drawing templates are included should you want your students to write and sketch pictures related to saying no to drugs and alcohol and Red Ribbon Week. SUGGESTION #1: Use the writing and drawing templates for morning meetings, class check-ins, before or after Character Education/Life Skills/Health lessons, counseling sessions, or as part of your social emotional learning activities/lessons, etc. **IMPORTANT: Please keep in mind the social and emotional learning needs of your students when assigning these Just Say No! task cards.** *SUGGESTION #2: If you have one, you may wish to hang your students’ journal pages/drawings/sketches on a Just Say No or Red Ribbon Week bulletin board (or wall). *REMINDER: As there are original writing and drawing templates included with this resource, you will need to make copies (on an as-needed basis) for your students. *For your convenience, answers for task cards #1A-#26A are included with this resource.

Cold War: HANDS-ON LEARNING - Many people have less than fond memories of their History or Social Studies class. This could be due to the long hours they were forced to spend reading the dry, dull textbook in class (cue the Charlie Brown teacher reading aloud). Or maybe it is because of the vast volume of information that felt overwhelming at the time (think fire hydrant trying trying to pour into a water bottle). Social studies is just the opposite of dry and dull. And it certainly doesn’t need to feel overwhelming! This set of hands-on learning resources is meant to bring the LIFE back into your history or Social Studies lessons! Each component covers a different topic to bring back the flavor! ............................................................................................................................ Check out the COMPLETE Cold War Unit here! AND don't miss other Hands-On Learning sets like this one here! ............................................................................................................................ Simulation: Communism This simulation allows students to experience the difference between a capitalist market (such as what the United States practices) and a communist market (such as what the Soviet Union practiced during the Cold War). Whole Class Activity: McCarthyism and the Red Scare This activity is demonstrates the sentiment that existed in America during the McCarthy trials and the Red Scare. Lapbook/Interactive Notebook The lapbook/interactive notebook set is a dynamic working space for students to interact kinesthetically with content. Topics covered include: →Timeline of the Cold War →Key terms (arms race, Space Race, cold war, Iron Curtain, Berlin Wall, Red Scare/McCarthyism, stalemate, democracy, containment policy, communism) ★BONUS printable classroom timeline ★Each flipbook/foldable is included with two versions: a version for highlighting with all answers filled in and key terms bolded AND a version with blanks left for students to complete. Game: Space Race PLUS "Space Race" Differentiated Passages The game is provides a fun way for you to “sneak” information into your students’ minds without them realizing what you’re doing because they’re just having too much fun! This board game allows students to recreate the Space Race between the Soviet Union and the United States that took place during the Cold War. It features moments such as... →First satellite, Sputnik 1 →First man in space, Yuri Gagarin →First man on the moon, Neil Armstrong →First space station, Salyut 1 … and more! ★BONUS: Common Misconceptions about the Cold War [printable posters] ★BONUS: Berlin Wall Visual + Maps [printables]

We had a GREAT first day back. I'm exhausted ... but it's a good exhausted. This year I have 28 students in my grade 5/6 class - 7 students in grade 5, and 21 students in grade 6. Because half of my students are new to my school this year (we amalgamated with another school), we spent a lot of today getting to each other and building new relationships. We started out with a team-building activity I found on Science Gal's blog. She has a wonderful set of instructions to follow. Students had to work together to build a pyramid with their solo cups, using strings and an elastic band. They LOVED it! When we were finished, each group (I have 5 groups in the class) worked together to build a list of 4 key points they learned about how to successfully work in groups. They then had to narrow down their points to their top 2, and together, we built an anchor chart entitled, "The Secret to Success This Year". (I'm sorry - I forgot to grab a pic of it). My absolute favourite point (and the first one they gave me) was "We will learn from our mistakes." Couldn't ask for more than that! Later in the day, we worked on our "Math About Me" pennants. Although each students completed his or her own pennant, we worked together through the activity, discussing what each question meant and how to solve it. As students finished, I hung the pennants on our math bulletin board. LOVE how it turned out. I've uploaded this little template to google docs if you would like to share it with your class. Click HERE to download your own copy. We started our first read aloud of the year - The One and Only Ivan. I read it with my own girls this summer, and they LOVED it. And I'm pretty sure the class is hooked already. :) I've got a little surprise coming to my class this week, and I can't wait until it gets here (no - it's not a real gorilla - lol). We finished the day by writing our "I Am ..." poems. I have these templates available as a freebie on my TPT site. Click HERE to see them. As students completed, I gave them a sheet of construction paper, had them fold it in half, and then asked them to draw the top half of their heads on the top half on the sheet. The sheet would be glued on the bottom half. They also need to draw in their fingers as if they are holding up the paper. About half of the class finished before the end of the day, and I can't wait until they are all done tomorrow so I can hang them outside the classroom as our first big display. :) I have a feeling it's going to be a fabulous year. And as exhausted as I am, I am still excited to sit down and finish planning for tomorrow. Happy Tuesday!!!

HOORAY! you're here! Vinyl Decal for the classroom or for your home. Teacher door decals are such a big hit right now! Use it on your door, a wall, window, whiteboard, or the front of your desk! These decals are matte black, removable vinyl which means at the end of the year when it's time to take them down, it will not damage your door. The decals come ready to apply with instructions. Each decal is made of high quality, self-adhesive, matte-finish vinyl that gives a crisply painted look to whatever surface you choose to apply it to: walls, doors, windows, mirrors, wood, plexiglass, etc. Clean, dry, and flat surfaces work the best for our vinyl wall decals but they can be applied to textured walls and surfaces. The decal will simply reflect the texture of the surface and may take a little more time and love to make it stay put. Vinyl is removable, but not reusable. Recommended Sizes: Please make sure to measure your door! 24" door decal for a door that is 30 inches wide. 30" door decal for a door that is 36 inches wide.
