ELA, Writing, Creative Writing, Grammar, Grade 2, 3, 4, 5, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
Getting kids to enjoy writing during the early elementary years is key. One way we can do that is to tie in their interests to the writing process. A beach trip is something kids might look forward to each year as a family tradition, or it might be a unique treat. No matter what it means to the kids in your life, this activity will get their imaginations rolling like the waves on the shore! Including the appropriate sequence of events, as well as a conflict is key. Thinking about the way we think is a foundational skill for growing the executive functions our kiddos will use in the editing process. For this reason, a short checklist has been included at the end of page 4 so that learners can begin to go back and check their work. This key skill in developing healthy executive functioning is intentionally made visible to students to prompt ownership over the quality of their writing. STANDARDS: Meets CCSS Writing standards for grades 2-5. Don't forget to check out the Chef's Toolbox, Superhero's Toolbox, and Astronaut's Toolbox activities for more fun! These activities can be used with a whole class in addition to the writing challenge printable. This printable is optimal for 2nd-5th graders who enjoy learning about space and demonstrating their knowledge of it. By using the included matrix to choose the setting, challenge, and characters in their mission, they'll use the freedom afforded them to create something they love. BONUS: Take advantage of the 4 extension activity ideas included in this printable. These activities will take their writing beyond the page and bring it to life in STEAM-supported outlets. What you'll get: a 4 page PDF including instructions, extension activity ideas, and 3 student pages. One of these pages is simply writing space for you to print off as many copies as you need based on the amount your students are writing. You'll also find the editing checklist to prompt students to edit their own work for spelling, capitalization, and punctuation.

Ready to wrap up your school year with something more meaningful than just clearing desks and turning in textbooks? These FREE High School End-of-the-Year Doodle Note Graphic Organizer Sample Pack is just what you need! Covering ELA, Math, History, and Science, these fun reflection templates give your students/homeschoolers a chance to look back on what they've learned, pick out their favorite topics, and think about how they'll use this knowledge in real life. I have designed these with creativity in mind - because let's face it, engaged students/homeschoolers remember more! They are perfectly sized to slip into interactive notebooks too, giving students/homeschoolers a keepsake they will actually want to look back on years from now. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: 4 ready-to-use doodle note samples (1 each for ELA, Math, History, and Science) Printable PDF format for immediate classroom use Easy-to-implement templates requiring minimal preparation Sample layouts showcasing different reflection approaches Preview of full doodle note resources available separately TOPICS COVERED: ELA: Reflection on literary favorites, writing growth, communication skills, and language arts applications Math: Year-end review of key concepts, favorite formulas, mathematical thinking development, and real-world connections History: Personal connections to historical events, perspective development, favorite historical topics, and contemporary relevance Science: Scientific inquiry reflection, concept application, experimental highlights, and future learning interests I have found these free end-of-year doodle notes do double-duty in the classroom. While students/homeschoolers are having fun reflecting on what they loved about the year's learning journey, they are actually reviewing crucial material without the stress of test prep. The visual-verbal connection helps cement those concepts in their minds one last time. My favorite part - is watching students realize how much they have grown academically when they fill out these templates. There is something powerful about giving students this creative space to wrap up their year - it brings meaningful closure while reinforcing everything they have learned in a format they actually enjoy. The science behind why these work is fascinating! Our brains process images differently than text, and when students/homeschoolers combine both on these doodle note pages , they are creating multiple pathways to remember information. I have seen this approach transform end-of-year review in my own classroom - students/homeschoolers who normally check out mentally in May stay engaged, retain more information, and connect emotionally with what they've learned. The result is Lless stress, better recall, and a positive feeling about the subjects they have studied. These free end-of-year reflection sample pages give your students/homeschoolers a chance to celebrate their academic journey while creating a memory book of their high school experience they will actually want to keep.
