Reading Intervention for Struggling Readers: Book 6
Special Resources, ELA, Special Education Needs (SEN), Language Development, Pre-Reading, Phonics, Reading, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, 3, 4, Literacy Readers, Teacher Tools

This Reading Intervention for Struggling Readers: Book 6 helps children to use their knowledge of common digraphs to read longer passages and apply their phonic knowledge to new vocabulary. This book is the sixth in a series of books written to provide intervention for struggling readers using decodable reading books, written to build confidence and help the child attain fluency. This book is useful for reading intervention for older pupils, maybe even of 11+ who are struggling to read fluently, but who have a smattering of phonic knowledge but with gaps. It revises CK and OO words adding more commonly used decodable vocabulary giving the child a familiar base on which to build It follows: Book 1 CVC Words Book 2 Consonant Blends Words Book 3 More Consonant Blends Words Book 4 CK word Book 5 OO Words Who is this book for? Older pupils who can read, but who have a reading age well below their chronological age. Such children may struggle to read simple text with accuracy/fluency and thereby lack comprehension. It is not for pupils who are just beginning to read with phonics. Please see my Graded reading books for such pupils. It is convenient enough for parents to use with their children and for use by teachers and private tutors. Outline and steps Having secured a child's blending skills with three and four sounds in books 1 to 3, and practised CK and OO words, we now start to extend the child's ability to decode new words using common digraphs. Assess the whole time as the child reads: if the child stumbles on a word, make a note to revise that phonic sound before continuing to the next book. As these children are not beginners, we now add words ending in /et/ (e.g. packet) and past tense words: rock - rocked. these should be studied before reading this book. I find that often these children need help distinguishing between similar words, such as back and black, and by retraining the child to read accurately using these simple texts - that do not look babyish - and then rebuilding from the bottom up, much progress can be made. I thought that my pupils would look with disdain at these books. I found the opposite; they were so relieved that at last somebody had actually given them a book they could read! Simply print on A4 paper, two on a page. Cut into individual A5 pages, and staple or bind them together to make a book. Purpose These books have been written and tried and tested on some of my older pupils (mainly boys I admit), and they have proved very helpful. Most of my pupils have a dyslexic type problem, involving poor processing skills and have had years of failure. They must build a secure foundation for reading ability to build upon. These books, used as described, will help to build that foundation. I am finding an increasing number of such pupils desperate for help. You can help, too! It is not hard; you just need to understand the problem a little. What is included? 1 pdf with 16 pages, 4 reading passages and 4 fluency charts.

Martin Luther King Jr. One Step Equations Pixel Art NO NEGATIVES
Math, Algebra, Grade 6, 7, 8, Activities

This activity is a fun and engaging way for students to practice one-step equations while having fun and looking for a mystery picture. The activity features 20 one-step equations for students to solve, and as they correctly answer the questions, a mystery picture (Martin Luther King Jr. themed) will be revealed. The design of the activity makes it easy for students to self-check their answers, letting them receive immediate feedback and quickly identify and correct any mistakes they make. The activity is suitable for middle school students but has been specifically designed for sixth graders. It’s great that this activity is easy to implement in the classroom. All you need to do is share the link with the students and they are ready to go! The activity is designed to be engaging and interactive, so even the most reluctant students will be motivated to participate. By combining problem-solving with a mystery picture reveal, it encourages students to engage with the material and work towards a concrete goal, helping them to stay motivated and focused throughout the activity. The answers include only positive integers, so students will have the opportunity to practice working with both types of numbers. A printable version of the questions and answers is also included, making it easy to use in the classroom or at home. I used this activity as a sub plan with sixth graders, and they loved it. They where so engaged. Now I give them a pixel art activity as a price, if they are well behaved or on Fridays, or as homework if they need some extra practice. It is also a great activity to assign to fast finishers. Since this activity is online there is no need for Google or Microsoft logins. What's Included: Pdf with the link to the activity printable version of the questions Solutions

One of the best parts: NO PREP required! This is not only great for distance learning but also great if you have run out of copies for the month and need a digital version fast... or if you just forget to make your copies for the week. (It's happened to me! - too. many things to keep track of) The pages do print beautiful in color and black and white if you have the time, but don't fret if you don't. Just assign it on Google Classroom - directions included. If you haven't taught the topic yet, it is a great mini lesson and if you have taught it, it can act as a review. (There are also some fun logic puzzles sprinkled in.) dividing decimals multiplying decimals dividing whole numbers multiplying whole numbers adding decimals subtracting decimals deducing information measurement conversions practicing with money problem solving graphing predicting and having fun! Each task builds off the next. Students will get clues as to where Santa might be hiding AFTER they correctly solve each math task. And don't worry, there is an ANSWER KEY.

Theodor Schwann – Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Version (PDF & H5P) This lesson-ready material introduces students to Theodor Schwann 🧪 and his contribution to one of the most important concepts in biology: the cell theory 🔬. While many students in grades 7 to 10 already know that all living things are made of cells, they often don’t know where this insight comes from – or who helped uncover it. In this lesson, students explore the work of Theodor Schwann, who, together with Matthias Schleiden, laid the foundation for modern cell biology. The materials are designed to fit into a 45-minute session ⏱️ and work well in both print and digital formats. I’ve used them in regular biology lessons as well as for independent learning phases or when a quick but meaningful sub plan was needed. The resource includes a short, accessible reading passage about Schwann’s scientific discoveries. After reading, students fill in a fact sheet 📝 to summarize key information, and then answer quiz questions to check their understanding. What worked really well in my class was the final task: students created their own questions based on the material and exchanged them with a partner. It led to some thoughtful discussions and helped them reflect on what they had actually learned 💬. You’ll find two versions of the printable PDFs – one in color 🎨 and one in black and white. The included H5P version offers a digital alternative for interactive use, especially useful on learning platforms or digital boards (note: the H5P version contains no design elements, just the interactive tasks). Included: Informational text about Theodor Schwann Fact sheet task Quiz questions with answer key Creative student task (write your own questions) Printable PDFs (color & B/W) H5P interactive version The materials are self-explanatory and suitable for classroom use, homework, or digital learning 💻. 🚀 Download now and bring the legacy of Theodor Schwann into your biology lessons today! 📍 Best wishes, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and inspiring learning environment. 🐶✨
