Biomes in pdf form has now been made for use in the Google Classroom™. You can share this resource with your students through Google Classroom™ or Google Drive™. Students can then type directly on this document and share it back with you.

This resource contains six non-fiction texts about biomes of the United States. The passages were written with third graders in mind, but the information is very interesting and would be useful for upper grades as well. Some passages are shorter than others and have less complex language so that you can easily differentiate for students.

There is a tips sheet for teachers and a recording sheet for students on which they can note where the biome is found, the average annual precipitation, the average temperature, and plants and animals of the biome. Students respond to a question asking if they would like to live and that biome and tell why or why not.

Firstly, there is a great World War I Digital Research and Sorting Activity that is perfect for introducing students to some of the key events of the war. Great for class work, distance learning or home schooling. In total there are 30 posters or task cards that need to be researched and sorted. These can also be printed to make a great classroom display.

Then there is a World War 1 Close Reading Activity. The Google Forms activity comes with an informational text that students need to read through before answering comprehension and grammar questions. An extension writing task is also included.

Finally there is also a World War I Informational Text Writing Activity. The activity focuses on key facts about the war, and has been split into four separate lessons which will take students approximately 40-50 minutes each.
