As many of you already know, I am finishing up my FINAL grad school course as we speak. I may or may not have a slight case of “senioritis”. Who knew that you could come down with THAT in GRAD SCHOOL?! Anyway, I’m spending the day off working on projects and papers to try to …
Summer is here and the kids are home. If you are looking for an easy to keep your kids active, my Summer Gross Motor Movement Game is just what you need!
Color Inspiration : Orange + Teal and Yellow It's time to think bright! The bright orange contrasts with teal and the subtle yellow to just the right amount. The contrast between the three colors is what makes them stand.
I've got one more summarizing idea to share with you! Did you see my other posts about writing summaries HERE and HERE?
Use this resource to read a nonfiction passage about sharks and write a summary.
In this activity, children use a pattern to create a miniature Native American tipi.
This is a template to use as your students read a chapter book. It includes 3 different formats (with both boy and girl versions of each) to help your students comprehend each chapter as they read. It would be great to send home for Summer Reading assignments! We'd love to hear your feedback!
Matchbook chapter summaries super simple and fun project that you can have your students complete during your next novel study.
Hi bloggy friends! I can't believe it's been over a month since I last posted. When I started this blog, I really had intentions of posting more regularly. But I guess I'm not as on top of things as I'd like to be. Besides being swamped at school (like I'm sure all of you are too), I was super sick with pneumonia for awhile and still have bronchitis. Needless to say, I'm so ready for winter break so that I can get some extra rest and spend lots of time with my boys. Anyways, I was so excited that my summarizing organizer was helpful to many of you! Thanks a bunch for all of the positive comments! Someone asked if I have the same organizer for nonfiction and unfortunately, I do not; however, here is an organizer that I have my kiddos use when reading nonfiction text. From this organizer, my students then write a summary. Main Idea Organizer I have created a graphic organizer to help with summarizing biographies. It also comes from some ideas I learned at a training with Kathy Bumgartner (www.kbumreading.com). Summarizing a Biography Also, this week we wrapped up our literature circles and the kids got to pick three activities from a Tic-Tac-Toe style menu that they'd like to complete. They had so much fun and their products were so creative (I've really got to start taking pictures). Here's a copy of the Tic-Tac-Toe. The activities can be used with any stories! Literature Circle Final Projects Ok, so that's it for now. I have been getting some creative ideas from other blogs out there and wanted to give back a little something! If you can use any of these activities, I'd love to hear your plans for them!

I'm always trying to come up with fun new ways to have students do what are usually considered boring activities, like writing a summary of a book. In my latest novel unit on Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing by Judy Blume, I wanted to come up with an end-of-unit project that wo
