This resource is a science driven, easy to use pack to use when investigating all things pumpkin! Pumpkinology is a great way to incorporate kindergarten science standards in a fun, fall themed way.

Cut off the top of a pumpkin and let them scoop out the insides to count seeds, estimate how many counting cubes tall is a pumpkin, how many paperclips will it take to fit around the pumpkin? Will the pumpkin sink or float? What is the life cycle of a pumpkin? Color or use tissue paper to produce a tear art version to create their very own pumpkin.

I use this resource in my classroom on October 31st as part of our fall party! We investigate all things pumpkin and the grand finale is when we carve a face on the pumpkin, add in baking soda, vinegar and green food coloring to make the pumpkin explode (outside of course)! This is a day your students will remember for years to come!

Teachers can use it as a:

• Halloween party and make each investigation a station
• Week long investigation of pumpkin attributes
• Science project to let little learners estimate what they think will happen
• Fall fun pack
• Lesson on the life cycle of a pumpkin

Happy pumpkin investigating!

This activity is a great way to have your students create their own bingo cards and then to play with them. It comes with many versions depending on your Core French groups.

This comes with the call-out cards.

This one week SPANISH writing program will have your students writing every day of the week, and is perfect for Spanish immersion and regular Spanish curriculum. The writing activities in this program include five prewriting and writing activities for Monday through Friday. These writing prompts are a great way both to introduce and to review writing. Provide each student with a "párrafo de la semana" folder and have them add to it every day as you give them daily assignments. At the end of the week have them turn in their folders.

Theme: Este fin de semana probablemente voy a….

Here’s how this program works:

✍Lunes:  Dibujo - Give students a drawing page with a writing prompt at the top. This will have them beginning to think about the writing theme for the week and is their first pre-writing assignment. Kids love drawing, and the pictures they draw will later serve as inspiration!

✍Martes:  Mi folleto de vocabulario - Each student receives a booklet to help them explore the vocabulary related to the week’s writing theme. The front page includes the writing prompt of the week and an image. The second page includes over 80 frequently used Spanish words. Page three lists 12 words that go along with the theme of the week, and the back page has space for ten words that students have either thought of on their own or looked up in the dictionary. The booklet is a simple one page printable that you can either fold in advance or have students do it on their own. Kids write their name on the front cover and you could have them color it.

✍Miercoles:  Vocabulario - Students go back to their vocabulary booklets from Tuesday and choose ten words that they will include in their rough draft. The words they choose can be a combination of words they have chosen and themed vocabulary that was already written in the booklet. They then write down the chosen words on their vocabulary page that says “ Palabras de vocabulario útiles: Voy a utilizar estas palabras en mi párrafo".

✍Jueves:  Mi borrador - Students write a rough draft of their paragraph using the vocabulary words selected on Wednesday. The brouillon page includes a 5 point checklist at the top for students to evaluate their work for themselves before writing the final copy on Friday. This will motivate students to look over their work and make corrections. 

✍Viernes:  Mi borrador final - The fifth and final step in this writing program is to write the final copy. Students should feel very confident in writing about this week’s theme by now. At the top of the final copy page they’ll see the writing prompt and question words that they can ask themselves while writing:  quién - qué - cuándo - dónde - por qué - cómo

Ways you can use this writing program:

✎ Enhance your writing program by practicing a little every day.

✎ Use the prompts at writing centers Monday - Friday.

✎ Daily 5 rotations

✎ Homework

✎ Writing centers

✎ Fast finishers

✎ Tutoring sessions

✎ No prep sub materials

✎ Morning work

✎ Project on whiteboard for a whole class speaking activity

Overview: The Triphase Assessment ELA Packet is designed to evaluate students' progress in mastering informational writing and reading skills aligned with Common Core State Standards (CCSS). This comprehensive packet is structured into three phases: Start Quarter, Mid Quarter, and End Quarter assessments, incorporating a "2 Star and a Wish" feedback model to encourage positive reinforcement and constructive feedback.

Assessment Focus:

1. Writing Informative/Explanatory Texts: Students will demonstrate their ability to introduce a topic clearly, use facts and definitions to develop points, and provide a concluding statement.
2. Utilizing Text Features: Students will show proficiency in using text features such as captions, bold print, subheadings, glossaries, indexes, electronic menus, and icons to efficiently locate key facts or information.

Why This Packet is a Brilliant Learning Resource:

• Aligned with CCSS: The assessments are directly aligned with the Common Core State Standards, ensuring that students are working towards nationally recognized benchmarks in informational writing and reading.
• Comprehensive Evaluation: By spanning the entire quarter, educators can monitor student progress at crucial intervals, providing a holistic view of each student's development and understanding.
• "2 Star and a Wish" Model: This feedback approach allows educators to highlight two strengths (Stars) in the student's work and one area for improvement (Wish), fostering a positive learning environment and encouraging student growth.
• Adaptability: The packet is versatile enough to be used in various educational settings and can be adapted for different grade levels, ensuring that students of all abilities can benefit from its content.
• Skill Development: Through focused assessments, students refine their writing and reading skills, particularly in synthesizing information, which is crucial for academic success across all subjects.

Triphase Assessment Structure:

Start Quarter Assessment:

• Objective: Gauge initial understanding and application of informational writing and reading skills.
• Activities: Short writing prompts and reading passages with text feature identification tasks.
• Feedback: Apply the "2 Star and a Wish" model to set learning goals for the quarter.

Mid Quarter Assessment:

• Objective: Assess progress and deepen understanding of informational text structure and development.
• Activities: More complex writing assignments and analytical reading tasks focusing on text features.
• Feedback: Highlight improvements and areas that need further development, encouraging continuous learning.

End Quarter Assessment:

• Objective: Evaluate mastery of informational writing and reading skills.
• Activities: Comprehensive writing task and critical reading assignments with an emphasis on efficient use of text features.
• Feedback: Reflect on growth over the quarter and set future learning objectives.

Educator Value: This ELA packet serves as an invaluable tool for educators to systematically assess and nurture students' informational literacy skills, crucial for academic achievement and lifelong learning. By integrating the "2 Star and a Wish" feedback model, educators can foster a supportive environment that emphasizes growth and improvement, aligning with the core principles of CCSS and best practices in teaching and learning.

This product was made for students to choose 1 of the 50 states and research it. Students are provided with an example of a research report on California in this product. The example state research report includes 7 slides - cover page, where is your state?, facts of the state, symbols of the state, interesting fact about the state, state flag, and why did you write about your state? The example provides students with a foundation of what is expected when they complete their own state research report. This product was developed for students who benefit from adapted instruction. This product can also be used with students who are on grade level as well.

The template is provided for students to write their rough draft. Once students are finished they can create a final draft using Microsoft PowerPoint, Google Slides, etc. using the information from their rough draft.

The Pumpkin Patch Field Trip Unit is part of my Field Trip Unit Series. The series was created with homeschoolers in mind, but can be adapted to be used in a classroom as well. Field trips are a great way to supplement learning, but often homeschoolers don’t get any background information on the location of their field trip and want to enrich their experience by expanding the learning at home before and after the trip. These units help give information and fun activities before and after the field trip.

These units are available in PreK/Kinder, Elementary, and Middle & High School levels. All Pumpkin Patch Field Trip Units follow the same outline and the parent/teacher info sheet is the same for all three so that if you have children of several ages, you can seamlessly teach them together. Homeschooling parents and teachers taking multiple grades on the trip can easily combine different units. Check out all of the levels below, as well as a money saving bundle.

Teachers Helping Teachers:

Vocabulary instruction is an important component of literacy instruction in preschool. It also provides children with an understanding of a variety of words which in turn can help with later reading comprehension. Vocabulary instruction is valuable as it builds the foundation for later reading skills, such as comprehension. A child needs to be taught vocabulary in many different ways.

QUIZLET: https://quizlet.com/891000310/icvc-early-learning-st-patricks-day-flash-cards/?i=3b2vg\&x=1jqt

Save the link and use it to do any or all of the following:

*Create Review flashcards to send home of the Early Learner words and the sentences tried out in class

*You can play games with them

*Share the link with parents- they can hit play in the car or at home to have the flashcards flip through and review items learned in class

*You can hit play to preview the terms and sentences or review them with your kiddos

*I LOVE doing repeat-after-me activities where the Quizlet reads it and then my kiddos repeat it.

*projecting onto your board, then sounding out the words together is key with the focus being on JUST the words and sentences without the busy pictures and activities around them.
