Mo Willems is the author of the Pigeon book series. The books contain large amounts of vocabulary designed for k-2nd graders. However, the pictures are so simple and adorable, they can be enjoyed by people of all ages. I adore this series so much that i have collected all of them despite that my son is almost 20 years old. As a result, I created the first of what I hope to be a series of reading comprehension and guided reading activity packs to make learning more fun for early elementary students as well as special education students and those with special needs in the areas of speech and communication. The book, "Don't Let the Pigeon Stay up Late," is required reading in order for students to complete all of the activities. It is available for purchase at Amazon and at Mo Willems own website. You can also find it at your local library to check out. Students will practice reading and learn about grammar, spelling, and increase vocabulary. Activities include: Open-ended questions, writing prompts, based on the text in the book. Sight word recognition activities 32 Spelling Words 32 Vocabulary Words Alphabetization Fill-in-the-Blank Drawing And More Students will be given the opportunity to search for: 14 CVC words found in the book 14 nouns found in the book 18 sight words found in the book Great for: Reading Centers Literature Centers Guided Reading Read aloud activities Practicing Social and Emotional Skills Pigeon books are written so that the reader is directly being spoken to by the Pigeon. Such fun books! Answer key is included, pdf downloadable, printable file. 15 pages Table of contents is included. Links for further activities beyond this guided reading project are also included.

Beyond the Jack-o'-Lantern Reading Passage and Q & A
ELA, Reading, Writing, Holiday & Seasonal, Resources for Teachers, Science, Life Sciences, Biology, High School, Homeschool Resources, Teacher Tools, Assessments, Lesson Plans, Quizzes and Tests, Worksheets & Printables, Writing Prompts
You know how it is as a homeschool mom - you are constantly on the hunt for something that will actually grab your teenager's attention for more than five minutes! Well, Beyond the Jack-o'-Lantern: The Biology and Culture of Pumpkins totally surprised me. I thought it might be just another fall-themed busy work packet, but wow, was I wrong. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: A detailed, multi-paragraph reading passage exploring pumpkin biology, history, culture, and nutrition. 20 higher-order thinking questions with an accompanying answer key for guided support. Printable note-taking and graphic organizer sheets to strengthen comprehension and study skills. Teacher-friendly design with easy-to-use formatting for both classroom and homeschool environments. TOPICS COVERED: Plant biology, anatomy, and the growth cycle of pumpkins. Ecological interdependence with pollinators and sustainable agriculture. Historical and cultural significance of pumpkins across societies. Nutritional benefits and interdisciplinary applications in STEAM education. My daughter picked this up thinking she'd breeze through some pumpkin facts, and before I knew it, she was down this rabbit hole learning about plant biology, cultural traditions, and agricultural history. She did not even complain once! (Trust me, that is saying something with a 9th grader.) What I love is that she has no clue she's doing this fancy "cross-curricular" learning - she is just genuinely fascinated. And can I just say how nice it is when a resource does not require me to spend hours figuring out how to teach it? Everything flows so naturally from one topic to the next. The other day she came to me with this question about how pumpkins spread to different continents, and I am thinking, "When did my kid start caring about agricultural migration patterns?" It is these moments that remind me exactly why we chose to homeschool. Taking something as ordinary as a pumpkin sitting on our porch and turning it into this amazing learning adventure - that is the good stuff right there. Sometimes the best lessons come from the most unexpected places! If you and your students/homeschoolers enjoyed this resource, please leave a review. Thank you for your support!

Weekly History Syllabus Doodle Notes

Ever feel like your history lessons need a serious pick-me-up? After watching my teenager's eyes glaze over during one too many timeline activities, I knew I had to create something different! These Weekly History Syllabus Doodle Notes were born late one night at my kitchen table, surrounded by scattered history books and half-finished lesson plans that weren't working for either of us. As a fellow homeschool mom who's navigated the treacherous waters of teaching history to a teenager (who'd rather be doing ANYTHING else), I have poured all my real-world experience into these templates. Gone are the days of dry, boring history planning that puts both of us to sleep! Instead, I have created visual planning sheets that finally clicked for my visually-oriented teen. Now we're mapping out historical connections, documenting primary source readings, and planning research activities in a way that actually sticks! The magic happens when those historical concepts come alive through both organized planning AND creative visual elements. My daughter went from "Do we have to do history today?" to pointing out connections between historical periods on her own—I amnot kidding! These templates have completely transformed how history works in our homeschool, and I cannot wait for them to do the same for yours. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: Comprehensive weekly history planning template with visually engaging design Designated spaces for historical learning objectives, content focus, and instructor information Daily sections for documenting classwork, discussions, quizzes, and attendance Specialized reading assignment sections for historical texts and primary sources Homework planning areas with website research recommendations and writing prompts Visual note-taking spaces that connect historical concepts with creative representation Structured organization that accommodates the unique narrative nature of history instruction Look, I am not going to pretend I'm some super-organized homeschool mom with color-coded bookshelves (my laundry pile would quickly disprove that myth!). But after years of history lessons that felt like pulling teeth, these doodle notes have honestly saved our homeschool history curriculum. Sunday afternoons used to find me stressed and overwhelmed, staring at history books and wondering how to make centuries-old events relevant to my tech-obsessed teen. Now? I actually look forward to mapping out our history week! The combination of chronological organization with visual creativity means concepts stick in a way they never did before. My daughter has gone from glazed-over eyes to making connections between historical periods on her own. No joke—last week she compared political patterns from ancient Rome to something in today's news WITHOUT PROMPTING! Grab these templates today, and in a few weeks, you will be texting your homeschool friends about how your kid suddenly loves history. (And they'll demand to know your secret!) If you and your students/homeschoolers enjoyed this resources, please leave a review. Thank you for your support! Tina - Big Easy Homeschooling Mom Please subscribe: tidewindacademyhomeschool.com

Spiders, scientifically known as "arachnids," are fascinating to many people, especially kids. And there are so many different kinds. I learned a lot while creating this reading comprehension activities pack. Kids will read the article (link provided to the article inside product) and answer the questions. Many of the questions are fill in the blank, some are multiple choice, some true/false. There are also multiple essay question, writing prompts. And a bonus section for motivated students to look at what the Bible says about living things. Students will be given the opportunity to choose which side they are on regarding evolution vs creation, without judgment. They will be required to research and support the side they choose in their essays. Answer keys are included for the objective questions. The product is simple: 31 questions, including multiple choice, true/false, plus two short writing prompt type questions, one of which is partly subjective, but requires a thoughtful answer. Extra credit questions are included. 33 vocabulary words - can be used to increase student comprehension, increase scientific vocabulary, and can be used for alphabetizing and/or spelling tests. 8 Bible verse references - Bible as literature is an allowed subject in the public schools. Also, just looking up verses and drawing your own conclusions should align with standards. This activity is optional, of course. One bonus activity for students to write their thoughts on the 8 Bible verses. Two essay questions, one considered a "challenge." Can be used for extra motivated students or students who are trying to improve their grade. Of course, any writing a student does will build your writing fluency, especially when writing is done in a variety of fields, including, science, history, literature, etc. Answer keys for objective questions. My products are never grade specific, because students are at different levels even when they are at he same grade level in school. Probably 4th through high school would be the most appropriate. Product is downloadable, printable pdf.

Edgar A. Poe & Stephen King: Gothic vs. Modern Horror Reading Passage
ELA, Literature, Reading, Writing, Research, Resources for Teachers, High School, Homeschool Resources, Teacher Tools, Assessments, Quizzes and Tests, Lesson Plans, Worksheets & Printables, Writing Prompts
As a homeschool mom navigating the world of high school literature with my ninth-grade daughter, I understand the challenge of finding resources that truly engage teens while building critical thinking skills. This Edgar Allan Poe & Stephen King: Gothic vs Modern Horror Reading Passage, Q & A, and 5 Note-Taking Sheets is a comprehensive teaching resource transforms the study of horror literature into an exciting exploration of how two master storytellers — Edgar Allan Poe and Stephen King — have shaped our understanding of fear across different eras. When my daughter first read The Tell-Tale Heart , she was captivated by Poe's psychological intensity, but it was not until we compared it to Stephen King's modern approach that she truly grasped how literature evolves while maintaining timeless themes. This Edgar Allan Poe & Stephen King: Gothic vs Modern Horror Reading Passage, Q & A, and 5 Note-Taking Sheets resource bridges that gap, helping students/homeschoolers understand not just what these authors wrote, but why their techniques remain so powerfully effective today. The beauty of this comparison lies in how it makes classic Gothic literature accessible through the lens of contemporary horror that students/homeschoolers already recognize and appreciate. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: Comprehensive 4-page reading passage comparing Gothic and modern horror techniques 20 thought-provoking critical analysis passage questions A detailed answer key with guided answers for easy grading 5 note-taking sheets designed for different learning styles and approaches TOPICS COVERED: Psychological horror techniques and unreliable narrators in both Gothic and modern contexts Environmental symbolism and how physical settings reflect character psychology Evolution of horror themes from 19th-century Gothic to contemporary suburban fears Comparative analysis of how isolation, obsession, and evil function across different literary periods What I love most about this Edgar Allan Poe & Stephen King: Gothic vs Modern Horror Reading Passage, Q & A, and 5 Note-Taking Sheets is how it sets up our high schoolers/homeschoolers for the kind of thinking they will need in college — without making them feel overwhelmed right now. I have watched my daughter grow from someone who used to skim through reading assignments to a homeschooler who actually gets excited about discussing why certain scenes give her chills. The analytical skills she has developed through comparing these two masters of horror have carried over into every other subject we tackle. When she encounters complex texts in college, she will not be starting from scratch — she will already know how to dig deeper, ask the right questions, and make connections between different time periods and writing styles. That is the real gift we can give our kids: not just knowledge, but the confidence to think critically about whatever they encounter next. If you and your students/homeschoolers enjoyed this resource, please leave a review. Thank you for your support! Tina - Big Easy Homeschooling Mom

Adding Details to Sentences
ELA, Writing, Grammar, Language Development, Kindergarten, Grade 1, Worksheets & Printables, Writing Prompts, Activities, Centers
One important skill for students to learn is to write sentences. Sometimes students have difficulty adding details to sentences. This activity gets students to practice adding extra details to sentences by working with adjectives, adverbs, and prepositional phrases. By adding details to their sentences, students will write more interesting and engaging stories What is Included: This activity includes two practice pages where the additional details are already given to the student. Students will practice handwriting by tracing the sentences that show students how to add the details to the sentences. Also included are word cards (for nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, and prepositional phrases) to help students come up with ideas to create their own sentences. Blank writing pages are also provided for students to write their own sentences by writing the details in each step. When to Use: Literacy or Writing Center - The worksheets and word cards can be placed in a literacy center for students to write interesting sentences. Morning Work - The teacher can give the students a simple sentence to start with and use the blank pages to add details to that sentence while their classmates arrive at class. Homework - The blank pages can be sent home for students to practice adding details with their parents. Skills Assessed: Students will practice adding more details to their sentences by adding descriptive language. The worksheets included in this resource are no-prep. They just need to be printed out and given to students to complete. The teacher may choose to give students a simple sentence to start with or the students can use the word cards to build a sentence. The word cards are low prep, needing to be printed and cut apart. The blank pages can be laminated to become a reusable write and wipe activity. The cards will store nicely in a task box.

Weekly Science Syllabus Doodle Notes
ELA, Writing, Graphic Arts, Creative Arts, Science, High School, Homeschool Resources, Middle School, Worksheets & Printables, Writing Prompts, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers, Templates, Outlines
Are you ready to breathe new life into your science lessons? T hese Weekly Science Syllabus Doodle Notes were born out of my own frustration as a homeschool mom trying to juggle curriculum planning while keeping my kids actually interested in science. Trust me, I have spent countless late nights staring at bland planning sheets thinking, "There has to be a better way!" After one too many uninspiring science lessons, I created these templates that have completely transformed how we approach science in our homeschool. These are not just another pretty printable—they are the answer to that moment when you realize your kiddo has retained exactly zero information from last week's lesson on photosynthesis! I have designed them to be your visual playground, where mapping out experiments and research activities becomes something you and your students/homeschoolers actually look forward to. My own teenage daughter went from groaning about science to pointing at their doodle notes saying, "Remember when we did that cool experiment?" The secret sauce? These notes engage both the logical and creative sides of your brain, which means those scientific concepts finally stick—no more blank stares when you ask, "Remember what we learned last Tuesday?" These have been a game-changer in our homeschool, and I can't wait for them to transform yours too! INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: ✔Comprehensive weekly science planning template with visually engaging design ✔Designated spaces for scientific learning objectives, content focus, and instructor information ✔Daily sections for documenting science classwork, lab activities, quizzes, and attendance ✔Specialized reading assignment sections for scientific texts and research articles ✔Homework planning areas with website research recommendations and writing prompts ✔Visual note-taking spaces that connect scientific concepts with creative representation ✔Structured organization that accommodates the unique needs of science instruction Sunday nights used to be my nightmare—frantically scrambling to plan science lessons while dreading the glazed-over looks I would get from my teenager the next day. Sound familiar? Those days are OVER! With these Weekly Science Syllabus Doodle Notes , I have actually caught myself looking forward to planning time (weird, right?). Let me tell you, juggling high school science with a creative teen who'd rather be doing anything else pushed me to my breaking point. My kitchen table was buried under boring worksheets that neither of us was excited about. That is when I decided to create these templates—not because I am some super-organized homeschool mom (ha!), but because I desperately needed something that would work for both my planning sanity AND my visually-oriented teenager. The magic happens when organization meets creativity! Now my daughter can actually see what is coming each week, and those complex scientific concepts finally stick because the visual elements speak her language. I still cannot believe how much easier our science days flow now!
