Text Features Freebies!

 

I may be crazy, but I love teaching text features!  It's a great time to pull out the informational texts that kids love.  Dinosaurs, bugs, monkeys, you name it! To make it even easier I've included in this post two of my favorite text feature teaching videos, plus a 14 poster text feature freebie.  I hope you enjoy!

This video gets straight to the point!

Now for the Freebie!  It uses emojis to grab your students' attention and keep them on the task at hand.  It includes 14 posters that cover:

Below is an example of only two of the 14 posters included in the freebie!

Guided Reading…How About A Freebie?

Finding just the right worksheet to go with a particular guided reading book can be a challenge. To help with that I have made a freebie that includes worksheets for readers from the first through fifth grades. That makes deifferentiation a little bit easier! One worksheet is included for each grade level. Better yet, the Common Core addressed on each sheet is noted in the lower right hand corner. SO….if you need a little something for your guided reading groups tomorrow…download this freebie….click below!

Hope you enjoy the freebies and they are useful in guided reading!!

Summer's Coming…and Freebie!

Here it comes! Every day it gets closer! Yes! Summer is almost here! Those last few days of school can be a little crazy, and can leave any teacher with frazzled nerves, and even a big headache! To help make those last days of school a little easier I have a freebie for you! It's a great activity to start the day. There are five graphing posters, one for kids to fill out each of the last five days of school. It includes questions to ask about the graphs each day, as well as a suggestion as to how upper elementary students can use the graphs as well. Just click on the link below the pages! Hope you enjoy using it!!
