Dinosaur Activities - Are Dinosaurs and Birds Related?
Research, Science, Life Sciences, Animals, Biology, Elementary, High School, Homeschool Resources, Middle School, Centers, Activities, Projects, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools
Are Birds and Dinosaurs Related? This activity pack helps students explore the scientific evidence behind the connection between birds and dinosaurs. Instead of simply presenting one viewpoint, this resource encourages students to analyze the evidence and form their own conclusions. I developed this project with my son, who has Autism, in mind. He struggles with writing and organizing his thoughts on paper. Using sorting mat activities reduced frustration and made learning more engaging. As a result, I began creating similar resources to help other teachers and parents make learning more interactive and enjoyable. What’s Included in This Activity Pack? Sorting Activities – Helps students categorize and compare information. Research and Writing Assignments – Encourages deeper exploration and evidence-based conclusions. Critical Thinking Development – Supports analytical thinking skills. Dinosaur Recognition Practice – Reinforces knowledge of different dinosaur types. Comparison of Bird-Hipped vs. Lizard-Hipped Dinosaurs – Explores their significance in relation to evolutionary theory. Bonus Activities: Realistic Dinosaur Coloring Pages Dinosaur Information Sheets for guided research Total: 41 Pages Learning Objectives By completing all activities, students will: Identify and describe at least one difference between bird-hipped and lizard-hipped dinosaurs. Name at least two bird-hipped and two lizard-hipped dinosaurs. List at least two facts about Archaeopteryx. Compare feathers and scales by identifying at least two key differences. Explain the difference between cold-blooded and warm-blooded animals. Research both sides of the "birds from dinosaurs" debate and write a five-paragraph report comparing bird-hipped and lizard-hipped dinosaurs. Analyze whether the evidence logically supports the idea that birds evolved from dinosaurs. This resource provides structured, hands-on learning that supports student inquiry and engagement.

Guided Reading Level H - Snow, Sleet, and Hail
ELA, Resources for Teachers, Reading Comprehension, Reading, Science, Pre-Reading, Language Development, Earth and Environmental Sciences, Earth Sciences, Physics, Kindergarten, Grade 1, 2, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets, Teacher Tools, Centers, Activities, Literacy Readers, Quizzes, Quizzes and Tests, Assessments
This Guided Reading Book - Snow, Sleet, and Hail (Level H) 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: Snow, Sleet, and Hail Genre: Nonfiction (informational) Subject: Life Science / Earth Science Primary Topic: Types of frozen water from the sky Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): H What This Book Teaches Best Introduces three kinds of frozen water that fall from the sky: snow, sleet, and hail. Explains simple conditions and traits: snow falls when air is cold and feels “soft and light.” Builds science vocabulary using clear examples (snowflakes as “tiny crystal,” sleet as rain that “freezes as it falls”). Describes how hail forms and changes size (“grows inside a tall cloud” and “gets bigger and bigger”). Learning Goals Identify snow, sleet, and hail as kinds of frozen water. Describe what the text says snow is like and when it falls. Explain what a snowflake is, using the book’s words. Explain how the book says sleet forms as it falls. Describe how the book says hail forms and grows before it falls. Tell how frozen water affects Earth in the book (it “covers the earth,” and cold weather “changes the land”). Key Vocabulary From the Text crystal — a hard, shiny shape. sleet — rain that freezes as it falls. freezes — turns from water into ice when very cold. bounces — jumps back up after it hits something. hail — hard ice that falls during a big storm. Discussion Prompts Pre-reading question: What kinds of frozen water have you seen fall from the sky? Comprehension questions: What does the book say snow is like when it falls? Comprehension questions: What does the book say sleet is made from as it falls? Comprehension questions: Where does the book say hail grows before it falls? 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.

Caught in the Act of Being Kind
Special Resources, Social Skills, Grade 4, 5, 6, 7, Activities
I’ve been doinga lot of thinking lately about our society and how divided we are, so I came up with the idea of this character building and classroom community activity,Caught in the Act of Being Kind, to help our children become kinder to one another and adults. You can do this with one classroom, your team or the entire school. To make it even more effective, it can be used at home with parents and siblings. This is a simple idea, whenever you or your students see someone doing a kind deed for someone else, they will give that person aCaught in the Act of Being Kindcard or the receiver of the kind act may give the person a card to be put into theirCaught in the ActBooklet. As educators, we know that when we do something kind or charitable for another person, it is not only beneficial to them, but it allows us to feel some warm fuzzies too. This can be done throughout the school year. ☞The objectives of this resource are: ☺To improve self image. ☺To learn how to give and receive compliments ☺To build classroom/school community ☺To reinforce writing skills ☞Research has shown that: ♥When you do something kind for someone else, you feel good inside. ♥The greatest thinkers believe, happiness is found in helping others. ♥Giving is a powerful pathway to personal growth and lasting happiness. ♥This is what other teachers are saying about this resource. ♥“I love having something like this that encourages kindness and doing the right thing no matter the age group!" Thanks!! by Katherine G ♥ "This resource will certainly help to encourage a positive atmosphere in classrooms. Our school used a similar program years ago, and the students loved it. Thanks for the clever and customizable certificates." by Gramma Elliott ♥ “Thank you for making my teaching life less stressful by inventing the wheel so I don't have to. Bless you for all that you do for teachers everywhere.” By Kristin Holm ☞This is what you’ll get: ☺Complete lesson plans ☺Letter to parents ☺Cover page in color & black/white ☺Caught in the Act cards ☺Caught in the Act blank pages When I did this activitywith my 6th graders, Words can’t express the way everyone felt after giving and receiving their cards. The twinkle in their eyes and the smiles on there faces were priceless. I can say that we became more like to a family and less like a classroom. The end of the year came too soon and we all hugged and cried as we said good-bye. It was a year that I’ll never forget and I’m sure they won’t either. ☞This resource can be used for: ✔ Middle School ✔ Upper Elementary ✔ Special Ed Classrooms ♥Other teachers have bought these resources, check them out...
