The Simple Past Tense
ELA, Grammar, Not Grade Specific, Middle School, High School, Worksheets & Printables
A solid command of verb tenses is necessary for effective communication in English. However, why do verb tenses matter so much in English? One cannot accurately convey their meaning if the past, present, and future are not used appropriately. The verb's indicated time of action is indicated by the tense. The primary tense in English for discussing the past is the simple past tense. Although its meaning is fairly clear-cut and easy, language learners may find it challenging to form. The primary challenge is the abundance of irregular verbs in the Simple Past Tense. All of these verbs must be learnt by heart by the students. Use this ebook to teach your students about the Simple Past Tense. You can teach them how the tense is formed correctly, when it is used, and most importantly, how not to confuse it with other past tenses of the English language. Happy teaching!

Mastering English Learners Skills: Speaking
ELA, Language Development, ESL, Not Grade Specific, Activities
A few words about Speaking Out of the four skills (Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing), speaking is the one skill learners need more when it comes to proving they have learnt a new language. This is because speaking is a productive skill. Learners do not simply receive information and try to process it; they are required to process information and knowledge they already possess in order to produce new language and communicate. So, how do you get your students speaking? Most textbooks contain structured activities that practice speaking based on the topics and content of each unit. However, it is good to deviate from the book into freer conversation. Students are always more motivated when the activity is more relevant to them. This ebook comes to fill this gap. It offers you 20 speaking activities for every CEFR level (120 in total), which can be used whenever you want to engage your students in a free communicative practice. So, start speaking!

The Future Perfect Continuous Tense
ELA, Grammar, Not Grade Specific, Worksheets & Printables
We use the future perfect continuous tense when we're looking back to the past from a point in the future, and it describes actions that will continue up until a point in the future. It is usually necessary to mention the point of time and the length of time. Remember that the Future Perfect tense is used to express an action that is not done yet but will be done by a certain point in the future. On the other hand, in the Future Perfect Continuous, the future perfect activity will be in progress for a duration of time. By using the continuous tense, we emphasize the duration of an activity that happened in a progressive (rather than sudden) way. Therefore, we can only use verbs that express activities taking place over time. For example: working, living, studying, sleeping, thinking, hoping, traveling, saving, etc. This useful guide will detail the formation and utilization of the Future Perfect Continuous tense, with numerous examples and practice activities included. You can also locate the answer key at the back of the book.

Common Core Math Activities For Kindergarten
Math, Early Math, Common Core, Preschool, Worksheets & Printables
During Kindergarten, the main focus of instructional time should be on two important areas: (1) comparing and representing whole numbers using sets of objects; (2) explaining shapes and space. Kindergarten should focus more on teaching numbers than other subjects with additional learning time. Students utilize numbers, including written numerals, to symbolize amounts and address quantitative issues, like tallying objects in a group; tallying out a specified amount of objects; contrasting sets or numerals; and simulating basic combining and separating scenarios with sets of objects, or later on with equations like 5 + 2 = 7 and 7 - 2 = 5. Kindergarten students can be shown addition and subtraction equations, and it is recommended that they practice writing equations, although it is not mandatory. Students select, merge, and utilize efficient methods for solving mathematical problems, such as promptly identifying the quantities of small groups of items, counting and generating sets of specific sizes, totaling objects in merged sets, or determining the remaining objects in a set after some are removed.

Understanding the Common Core Curriculum - A Practical Guide
Common Core, Not Grade Specific, Teacher Tools
43 states have embraced a new set of academic standards called the Common Core State Standards. The purpose of the standards is to increase academic competitiveness in the US, while also preparing pupils for careers and college. These serve as benchmarks for what knowledge and skills in math and language arts kids should possess from kindergarten through their senior year of high school. Many of the benchmarks are included in the Common Core at every grade level, but there are certain commonalities. Language arts standards emphasize using evidence to support arguments. Pupils will write more viewpoints and fewer personal stories in their writing. They will be required to read more nonfiction as well. The arithmetic standards cover fewer topics in more detail. The idea behind the Common Core curriculum, also referred to as Common Core State Standards, was straightforward: if all kids were held to the same high academic standards, achievement and college preparation would increase. This ebook will give you a practical description of the Common Core and the basic concepts behind it.
