This resource includes 37 personal anchor charts and 37 full-page anchor charts that feature the key reading skills and comprehension strategies that you likely cover in your upper elementary classroom. Each page of the personal anchor chart file contains two copies of each anchor chart. Simply cut them in half and each student can glue an anchor chart in their personal reading notebook. Then, students can refer to the anchor charts throughout the year as needed. I designed the full-page color anchor chart file primarily for teacher use. You can place these anchor charts beneath your document camera and guide your students in filling out their personal anchor charts. You may also choose to display this version in your classroom. If you're a fan of anchor charts, but you aren't sure how to keep them on display for the students who need them, here's a very easy solution! Once the anchor charts are glued into a reading notebook, they are easily accessible for the remainder of the school year! The personal anchor charts are black and white, while the full-page anchor chart uses color clip art. These 37 anchor charts are included: *Author's Purpose (versions for PIE and PIE'ED) *Cause and Effect *Character Traits *Conflict *Connections *Context Clues *Drama Elements *Facts and Opinions *Figurative Language *Firsthand & Secondhand Accounts *Fluency *Genres *Inferences *Main Idea *Mood and Tone *Perspective *Plot Elements *Poetry Elements *Point of View (two versions) *Restating the Question in the Answer *Summarizing Fiction *Summarizing Nonfiction *Synthesizing *Text Evidence *Text Structures: Description *Text Structures: Cause & Effect *Text Structures: Compare & Contrast *Text Structures: Problem & Solution *Text Structures: Sequence *Text Features: Print *Text Features: Graphic *Text Features: Organizational *Theme (You have two theme charts to choose from.

The students glue each one in their notebooks and refer to them whenever they need to refresh their memory." ⭐️ Rebecca N. said, "This is a fantastic resource! I plan to use it every year!" ⭐️ Inspire in 5th said, "I use these anchor charts both for taping in student notebooks as well as hanging up on bulletin boards for extra visual resources. Love these!" ⭐️ Ashley H. said, "This is one of my favorite resources! Anchor charts ready to go. I get the larger ones printed on posters to hang in the classroom. I print out the smaller ones for them to place in their journals." ⭐️ Evelyn A. said, "One of the best resources I've purchased. The students understand the concepts well with these anchor charts." ⭐️ Stephanie S. said, "As a homeschooler, this has been a FANTASTIC resource to add to my child's resource book. It easily breaks down concepts to support my child." Each of these personal anchor charts are reflections of the main points that I have highlighted in my various reading PowerPoints. In my opinion, it is not necessary that you own each of my matching PowerPoints. I believe that the content included on these anchor charts are key elements that most upper elementary teachers will teach when covering these topics. However, many of the graphic elements are shared between the PowerPoints and the posters. Therefore, if you DO choose to use both the PowerPoints and the posters, your students will be able to easily notice the direct connection between the classroom PowerPoint activity and the matching reference tool that they are gluing in their notebook.
