Social Studies Writing Task

Summer has taken me over...but CCSS is on my mind!

It has been a while...sorry for my absence!

Here are a few things I have been working on for my lesson planning with the Common Core in mind:

Anchor Charts and Student Work

 

STUDENT WORK

Food Chains/Webs

Common Core Reading ANCHOR CHARTS!!

Well, I am still on Spring Break, but I did spend a few hours on school work! My non-teacher friends and family think I am crazy---but everyone out there in the Teacher Blog-e-sphere know why I did this!!!!

Being prepared in advance=success!

These anchor charts are NOT actually in NEON, I was having some fun with Picassa (google's photo editor).

ELA Common Core: workstation

I have been busy all night (yes, my Saturday night) on the computer creating this ELA workstation for my students.  What did I use? Why, the Crosswalk Coach for the CCSS of course!  I am hoping this will clear up a few questions and problems my students come across on their MAP test and Compass Odyssey lessons. Also, in our ImagineIt units, we are supposed to be constantly exposing the researching-thing all year!

I plan to create matching games with the definitions and examples as well as have students work in their Literary groups to practice PASS-like questions. It's nothing SUPER-FANCY, but it's crunch time for me---PASS Writing is in MARCH!!!!!
