This resource can be used for current work/learning, at home practice, or as an assessment tool (diagnostic, summative or formative). The resource is not grade specific and thus, can be used across multiple grades. Student map work includes: Drag and drop the states into each appropriate place to create a map of the United States Drag and drop the states into each appropriate place to create a map of the United States - using state abbreviations Label each state by typing the appropriate abbreviation in each state's text box Drag and drop the correct state abbreviation on each respective state Drag and drop to properly locate each state capital Answer questions using the compass rose - pertaining to north/south/east/west All on Google Slides™ to incorporate with your Google Classroom™ or on technology within the classroom. It is also great practice as homework. This can be used on computers or tablets. Have them try putting the United States back together! A great activity that will get them thinking and experimenting with the puzzle-like pieces. (Two versions) I have included tips on how to best use the puzzle pieces as some states, especially when using a tablet. An example of a tip being: hold down the ALT key when making small moves. You will download a pdf page that includes a link to the resource. Please ensure you make a copy that will be yours to use over and over.

Writing Center Words & Write-the Room Activity – HALLOWEEN
ELA, Writing, Creative Writing, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, Centers, Activities

A favorite with my students! THIS is really when my most reluctant writers start to enjoy the Writing Center ! They cannot wait to get their turn to write scary stories or about Halloween fun! Help your students with their creative writing with these Halloween themed words and images for your K-2 classroom Writing Center . Words with images include: bat, black cat, candy, cauldron, Frankenstein, ghost, haunted house, jack-o-lantern, mummy, skeleton, spider web, trick-or-treat, witch, werewolf, vampire, and zombie. My students really love working in the Writing Center ! I have plenty of tools and “help” available to them, and these fun Halloween themed word pages which they can't wait to get their hands on. I print two copies, so there is no arguing about having to share, and I laminate them for durability before placing in the Writing Center . Students can easily grab a laminated word page and use it to help write their stories. Page 4 of the PDF is for the Writing Center . Print and laminate one or two and place it in the Writing Center for your students to access as needed. Also included are 16 cards for a Write–the–Room activity if you choose to use them. (I have only used this with my Kindergarten class.) These cards are four-per-page, with the same words and images used for the Writing Center . Pages 5-8 of the PDF are cards for use as a Write-the-Room activity. You may wish to laminate for durability to be able to use year-after-year, and use sticky tack (poster putty) to mount it to walls, bookshelves, file cabinets, etc. I find this is easier than tape. On of my grade-level teachers prints in gray scale, tapes them up, and then lets students take them home after use. Whatever works best for you. Recording pages for the Write-the-Room are included on pages 9 and 10. Page 9 is a full-size recording sheet, and page 10 has 2 half-size recording sheets if you use mini-clip boards like I do. Please note - the first three pages are for "packaging" purposes.

Writing Center Words & Write-the Room Activity – Camping

Writing Center Words & Write-the Room Activity – Camping
ELA, Writing, Creative Writing, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, Centers, Activities

Any of your students go camping? Help them write about their adventures with these fifteen camping themed words and images for your K-2 classroom Writing Center . Words with images include: back pack, bug spray, campfire, canoe, fish, ghost stories, hike, lantern, map, rod, sing, sleeping bag, S'more, tent, and toast marshmallows. My students love the Writing Center . I have plenty of tools and “help” available to them, including themed pages like this camping one. I print two copies so there is no arguing about having to share, and I laminate them for durability. Students can easily grab a laminated word page and use it to help write their amazing stories. Page 4 of the PDF is for the Writing Center . Print and laminate one or two and place it in the Writing Center for your students to access as needed. Also included are 16 cards for a Write–the–Room activity if you choose to use them. (I have only used this with my Kindergarten class.) These cards are four-per-page, with the same words and images used for the Writing Center . Pages 5-8 of the PDF are cards for use as a Write-the-Room activity. You may wish to laminate for durability to be able to use year-after-year, and use sticky tack (poster putty) to mount it to walls, bookshelves, file cabinets, etc. I find this is easier than tape. On of my grade-level teachers prints in gray scale, tapes them up, and then lets students take them home after use. Whatever works best for you. Recording pages for the Write-the-Room are included on pages 9 and 10. Page 9 is a full-size recording sheet, and page 10 has 2 half-size recording sheets if you use mini-clip boards like I do. Please note - the first three pages are for "packaging" purposes.
