Outlines

Many districts require teachers to post the learning goals for each lesson in the classroom. While this may seem like an unnecessary, extra step at first, it is truly beneficial to the students. I created this packet/spreadsheet to make goal posting simple, effective, and consistent. This can be printed out sheet by sheet and placed into their INTERACTIVE NOTEBOOKS, it can be distributed through a Google Sheet, or into a data folder. This is completely up to you. One way- Student directions: It is based on the work we have done thus far, please put an x in the box that best describes your knowledge of the "I can" statement. Before the unit please use a blue highlighter & before the test please revisit and use a pink highlighter. Another way- Instructions: Step By Step 1. Find the unit we are in right now. 2. Based on the work we have done thus far, please put an x in the box that best describes your knowledge of the "I can" statement. 3. Be sure to revisit this before your test to ensure that You've Got This Down! This is what the Civics team is creating your test off of. If you can move yourself to the final column of "Yes, I can." Then you should score 80% or higher on the test. I will be checking on these :) 4. If you get assigned to an intervention. You will need to edit this on the last day of that cycle P.s. This is also AMAZING for teacher & PLC planning.

KWL Charts (Know, Want to Know, Learned) are a standard resource in many classrooms. While students’ familiarity with them makes them easy to explain and use, it also can become an exercise students no longer really think about as they complete.

The printable chart version included with this lesson takes that idea a step further and is perfect for inquiry and project based learning. It also works well for the “Genius Hour”, “Passion Project” or “20% Learning Projects” that are becoming more popular. The KWHLAQ Chart expands on the three basic questions as follows:

K – What do I know?

W – What do I want to know?

H – How will I find out?

L – What did I learn?

A – What action will I take?

Q – What questions do I still have?

This is a great resource for any classroom!

Description:

• This product contains templates to help students write an introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion for an Expository Research Writing project on animals. The introduction has students begin with an interesting lead and include sentences with general and specific sentences on appearance, habitat, diet, life cycle, and predators. There are two introduction templates on one page. This page will simply need to be cut in half so that an introduction can be given to two students per page. The body paragraph template has space for four paragraphs with main idea titles and spaces for key words that will be turned into sentences. The key words will be found and highlighted in their research prior to filling out this template. This page will need to be printed front and back. Remind students to add transition words when they write their final draft. The conclusion has a blank for a transition word, which has helped my students remember to put one. It also contains three spaces for summary sentences and one space for a final feeling sentence to close the report. There are other instructions included in this packet.

Includes:

• Two introduction paragraph templates per page containing:

  • Space for four sentences
  • An interesting lead sentence
  • A general or specific sentence on appearance, habitat/diet, and life cycle/predators

• One body paragraph template containing:

  • Space for main ideas, key words, five sentences per paragraph, and four paragraphs total

• Two conclusion templates per page containing:

  • A transition word
  • Space for four sentences
  • Three of which are summary sentences, one final feeling sentence

• Further instruction, tips, and advice inside

I don't know about you, but my students love weird things! For a heavy writing assignment, what is better than giving your students a fun and crazy choice template to write on? I made these templates at my own students' request, so naturally, I had to laugh often as I designed each one. Enjoy!

Includes:

• 15 different templates
  • Each of the designs are pictured in the previews! No need to buy without seeing the entire product!
  • Animals, food, anime, princess, and Disney movie themes!
  • There is a front and back to each design.
  • 1.5 line spacing
  • Blanks for name, number, and title

I don’t know about you, but I love having options! Because of that, I have worked to provide different leveled newspaper templates. These could easily be combined into a multipage newsletter booklet if you so choose, or it could remain as a single page assignment. I also tried to make it so that you could have a “front page” and a content page if you printed front and back. Whichever level your students are in, I think that there is a little something in here for everyone!

Includes:

• 9 Newspaper Outlines (with one page of lined paper)
• 1 page of newspaper jargon to inspire better word choice
• Tidbits and advice!

Everything in this package is included in the thumbnails and preview!

These outlines came with multiple benefits:

• Reminders of instructions on each outline
• Structure in limiting sentences - beneficial for advanced students
• A clear goal line - very helpful for lower leveled students
• Adjective borders - How difficult is it to help larger classes with
• longer and create better writers.
• Transition word borders - Help your students connect events smoothly

Includes:

• Outlines for the following six paragraphs:
  • Introduction
  • Character Description Paragraph
  • Setting Description Paragraph
  • Middle of Event Paragraph
  • End of Event Paragraph
  • Conclusion Paragraph

Description:

• This is a packet meant to help students write their own imaginative stories. It contains eleven worksheets that will break down this process. You do not have to use every worksheet in this packet to teach the unit. Some worksheets will seem to cover the exact same concept, only slightly different. However, I realized that everyone has different tastes in how to teach, so I tried to give a few more options. It is difficult to say how long this will take. Every group of students is different. From the start to the final draft, I am assuming it will take two to three weeks.

Includes:

• 11 different worksheets covering
  • Setting, conflict, resolutions, character, and plot development
  • It begins with asking students to delve into the topics based on their experiences, then moves into brainstorming, designing their own stories, writing their drafts, and adding revisions.
  • Each of my designs is included in the previews! No buying without seeing the whole package!

Description:

• This product is meant to provide scaffolding for students who are writing a Persuasive Essay. It has helped my students write almost twice as fast, now that they had very specific boundaries and structure. The Short-Writes helped my students realize just how varied and strong their opinions were. They created a stepping stone that set up the next step of brainstorming and writing their Introductions. The Introductions, Body Paragraphs, and Conclusions templates are easily stapled together as the writing process continues. When it comes to writing their Final Draft, this progression allows the students to do so with ample ease.

Includes:

• 4 Short-Write templates

  • Topics covered: Things I Love, Things That Bug Me, Things That Should Change, and Things I Am Passionate About

• Introduction, Body Paragraph, and Conclusion templates

  • Body paragraphs contain space for 4 paragraphs

• Instructions and suggestions

• Possible resources

• Examples

• Everything included in this packet is featured in the thumbnails!

Time:

• I would suggest using these templates over a space of a few days. My class got through this in about a week with everything in this package. Now, we have our Final Draft to finish, so it might be a good plan to count on this entire process taking two weeks, depending on your students' ages.
