Guided Reading Level H - Hurricane Hunters (with Lesson Plan)
ELA, Resources for Teachers, Reading Comprehension, Reading, Science, Engineering, Technology, Earth and Environmental Sciences, Geography, Social Studies, Grade 1, 2, 3, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets, Teacher Tools, Centers, Activities, Literacy Readers, Quizzes, Quizzes and Tests, Assessments, Lesson Plans
This Guided Reading Book - Hurricane Hunters (Level H) with lesson plan includes: Guided Reading Color Label (front cover x1) This is a quick way to match the book’s demands to what students can generally handle.. The overall goal is to use the level/color to pick books for several smaller groups. To qualify for a certain level, a student is expected to read a book from that level with about 90–94% accuracy. If a student is consistently accurate and understands, move up a level. If the student is struggling at that level, drop down and add more support. Each student will improve at completely different rates, but it is generally one of the best ways to check progress across the class. DOWNLOAD THE CATALOG TO VIEW ALL GUIDED READING BOOKS AVAILABLE (SORTED LEVELS A-Z) Pre-Reading Question (x1) Teacher asks the prompt aloud, can be while showing the cover or first page. Students share what they already know, or make educated guesses from the cover. Prompt them to use the target vocabulary. Write some of their responses on the board to look back at during the reading. Vocabulary Words (x5) Introduce the five words, best doing it one at a time. Start by saying it, while students repeat and then see if anyone knows what it means before reading further. Read through the meaning and try to briefly connect each word to a picture or gesture so it’s meaningful. Ask students to flip through the book pages and point to where they see each of the vocabulary words. While reading the book pause upon coming across one of the vocab words or read the sentence twice to make sure students understand the word has appeared. Optional: Ask students to raise hands whenever they see/hear one of the new words. Guided Reading Pages (x10) Check the book snapshot (below) for: primary topic - do you need to prep extra reading or intro materials on this? what is taught best - decide on 1-2 bullets to focus on, use the prompt or words provided here for best results. learning goals - what you are checking for students to be able to do after the session, elicit answers using prompts or words provided. key vocabulary (see section above). questions overview - so you know what is coming up and if you need to prep extra materials to assist understanding. Run the lesson You may have already looked at a few of the pages together, but you can show them some of the pictures again first to set meaning. Depending on how much time you have and how familiar your students are with guided reading class, you may want to read the book aloud first with the group first. Students whisper or partner read, while you listen in. If time, do it as a group, one student reading a page each. Use the guided page’s prompts to coach: “Check the picture / does it make sense?” “Point under the words / try the first sound” “Reread the sentence smoothly”. Try to focus more on one student per session (rotating every time), so you can work out if they are ready to move up or need to move down a level. Comprehension Questions (back cover x3) This is your way to check that students didn’t just say the words, but actually understood the text. First, let students answer by pointing to the page/picture and saying a short sentence. After any answer, follow with: “Show me where you found that in the text.” In bigger groups, have partners answer first (10–20 seconds), then call on 2–3 students to share. Differentiation tips: Emerging speakers/struggling readers: oral + pointing On-level: oral in a full sentence Higher: one written sentence or draw + label Book Snapshot Title: Hurricane Hunters Genre: Nonfiction (informational, sequence of events) Subject: Earth Science + Reading (Informational Text) Primary Topic: Airplane missions that study hurricanes Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): H What This Book Teaches Best Defines hurricanes as big storms with lots of wind and rain. Describes how a special airplane flies into a hurricane to learn about the weather. Explains key parts of the storm, including the center called the “eye,” and what it is like. Introduces tools and information-gathering (a “dropsonde,” maps, numbers) used to understand wind and rain. Connects the airplane’s weather information to helping people stay safe on the ground. Learning Goals Students will describe what hurricanes are like using details from the text. Students will explain what the special airplane does to learn about a hurricane’s weather. Students will identify what happens when the plane reaches the center of the storm (the eye). Students will describe how a dropsonde and parachute are used during the flight. Students will explain how the information from the airplane helps people on the ground. Key Vocabulary From the Text hurricanes — very big storms with strong wind and rain. runway — long strip where a plane speeds to take off. dropsonde — small tool that falls from a plane. parachute — cloth that opens to slow something as it falls. eye — the center of the storm. Discussion Prompts Pre-reading question: What do you think a “hurricane hunter” airplane might do during a storm? Comprehension questions: What does the book say hurricanes bring with them? Comprehension questions: What is the eye of the storm like in the text? Comprehension questions: How does the airplane’s information help people on the ground? Printing Tips 1. Best Printing Method (Recommended) “Booklet” Printing (Best if Available) If your printer or PDF viewer supports Booklet Printing , use this. Settings to use: Print mode: Booklet Paper size: Letter or A4 (either works) Orientation: Landscape Print on both sides: Yes Flip on: Short edge Scaling: Fit to printable area Booklet subset: First test: Front sides only Then: Back sides only This will automatically: Pair pages correctly Put the cover on the outside Align everything for folding After printing, fold in half and staple along the spine . 2. If “Booklet” Printing Is NOT Available You can still print this correctly with manual duplex printing . Step-by-step: Open the PDF. Choose Print . Set: Orientation: Landscape Pages per sheet: 1 Print on both sides: Yes Flip on: Short edge Print all pages . Because each PDF page already contains two facing book pages, the result will still fold cleanly into a book. Thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership.

Here is a picture of a Hedgehog for children to colour. Hedgehogs are popular in autumn especially when we think of animals that hibernate, so here is a lovely way to add interest and fun to your sutum project! Who is this colouring picture of a hedgehog for? Anybody. Older children will extend the activity further than younger ones, Uses for this colouring sheet Use to help children learn about hedgehogs - to name their body parts and learn about their ways and their habits. Use as part of a science lesson Paint or colour. Studying the natural world is the foundation for the later study of science. The colouring of pictures of natural things, be it plants or animals is more than a pastime activity. It is a means of familiarising young children with these commonly known subjects. The colouring of this hedgehog picture can be used as a pastime, or even as part of a creative lesson, but it can teach much more. The Curriculum for Science expects children to be taught to use the local environment to study plants and animals, throughout the year. What better way than to use animals that children love and around which many stories are written - find a hedgehog story to read while the children colour, or let them write their own hedgehog story! Colouring can help children to become familiar with the parts of the hedgehog - help children to label the snout, legs and spines. Colouring a picture of a hedgehog emerging from a pile of leaves can stimulate a discussion on hibernation: why does the hedgehog hibernate and how? It is best if children colour the hedgehog picture using our colour version or from reference books. The coloured version can also be used as a A4 poster to pin up! What is included in the pack? 1 sheet to be coloured 1 sheet giving an example of how the picture could be coloured.

Unplugged Coding Task Cards | 30 Debugging WarmUps K-2 | No Tech
Computer Science, Technology, Science, Winter, Seasons, Holiday & Seasonal, Kindergarten, Grade 1, 2, Centers, Activities, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools, Task Cards, Worksheets & Printables
Find the Bug: Picture Debugging Warm-Ups | Grades K–2 Picture debugging task cards make early computer science accessible to young learners with 30 visual bug-finding challenges that require no student reading and no devices . Students look closely, find what does not fit, explain their thinking to a partner, and draw the fix. What’s Included This resource includes six separate PDF files : Teacher Guide – 6 pages Teacher directions and implementation ideas Teacher script for guiding students without giving away the answer Standards alignment Scope and sequence Two-week pacing plan Student Reference – 2 pages Five-step picture debugging cycle Student-friendly debugging checklist LOOK → POINT → SAY → FIND → FIX routine Recording Pages – 2 pages Draw-the-fix response sheet Student debugging tracker Progress tracking by bug type Picture Cards 1–30 – 30 pages 30 visual debugging task cards 6 bug types 3 difficulty levels One card per page Answer Key – 8 pages Correct answer for every card Suggested fix Misconception behind each bug Notes for teacher conferencing Alternate correct fixes identified where appropriate Terms & Credits – 2 pages Six Bug Types Students practice six foundational types of picture debugging : Order — steps are in the wrong order Patterns — one piece breaks a repeating or growing pattern Robot Path — one arrow points the wrong way Count It — the number does not match the quantity Sort It — something is in the wrong category Match It — one pair does not go together How It Works in the Classroom ⭐ Bell-Ringers Project one picture debugging card and work through it together. Read the goal aloud twice. Let students turn and talk. Have students identify the bug. Ask them to explain why it is wrong. Finish by drawing the fix. The teacher guide recommends approximately 5–8 minutes per card , with one card per day providing about six weeks of warm-up practice. ⭐ Stations Print and laminate the cards and place them at a station with the recording page. Students: Look at the goal. Examine each picture. Find the box, arrow, or pair that does not fit. Explain their thinking. Draw the correction. Five cards make a comfortable 15-minute station rotation . ⭐ Whole Group These cards are especially effective for carpet time and partner discussion. Because the cards are visual, the teacher reads the goal aloud while students do the actual problem solving. The spoken explanation is part of the assessment , making this more than simply a "find the wrong picture" activity. ⭐ Sub Plans No login, devices, or previous computer science experience are required. Print the cards, student checklist, recording pages, and answer key, and you have a ready-to-use unplugged activity. Standards & Learning Goals Students practice early computational thinking through: Debugging errors in algorithms and programs Following and evaluating sequences Recognizing repeating and growing patterns Following precise sequences of directions Connecting numbers with quantities Sorting objects according to rules Matching objects by attributes Explaining their reasoning to a partner The resource is aligned to CSTA 1A-AP-14 and CSTA 1A-AP-08 , with additional connections to CSTA 1A-AP-09, 1A-AP-10, and 1A-AP-11 , as well as CCSS.MATH.K.CC.B.4, CCSS.MATH.K.MD.B.3, and CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.SL.K.1 . The six bug types intentionally move from familiar visual reasoning into more challenging concepts. For example, Card 24 asks students to determine whether 3 is less than 3 , introducing boundary testing, while Card 25 requires students to apply two rules at once . Why Teachers Love It ⭐ Misconception-focused answer key The answer key explains why children may make the mistake , not just which answer is correct. This gives teachers useful language for guiding students without simply revealing the solution. ⭐ No reading required Students do not need to read the cards independently. The teacher reads the goal aloud, making this accessible to pre-readers, emerging readers, and English learners . ⭐ Truly unplugged No computers, logins, coding platforms, or devices are needed. ⭐ Builds debugging habits early Students learn that debugging means searching for what does not fit—not simply waiting for an adult to point out the mistake. ⭐ Encourages mathematical reasoning Counting, sorting, patterns, quantities, size, shape, color, and comparison are naturally embedded throughout the cards. ⭐ Built-in progression Each bug type includes three levels of difficulty. One-dot cards have visible bugs, two-dot cards require a trace or test value, and three-dot cards look correct until students check them carefully against the goal. ⭐ Great for partner talk Every card asks students to explain their thinking, giving young learners practice with mathematical and computational reasoning. ⭐ Supports differentiation The scope and sequence makes it easy to pull a specific group of cards for targeted reteaching. ⭐ Original visual design Every picture is an original drawing, so the cards are designed specifically for this resource rather than relying on generic clipart. Make early computer science visual, accessible, and engaging with ready-to-use picture debugging task cards for Grades K–2 ! Use them for morning work, carpet time, computer science warm-ups, partner activities, stations, or unplugged coding practice. Students will build the habit of looking carefully, finding the problem, explaining their thinking, and trying a fix. Add Find the Bug to your classroom and give your youngest learners a fun way to start thinking like problem-solvers and debuggers! 💛
