This product is a set of 17 assessment tests for all grade 2 math standards and grade 2 ELA standards related to language, grammar, phonics, parts of speech, and sentence structure. (This product does NOT include reading, reading comprehension, or writing. There are 7 math tests (one for each unit of learning, spread throughout the year), and 8 language arts tests (one for each unit of learning, spread throughout the year), plus a final math test and a final language arts test, both of which cover all topics included on the first 15 ELA and math tests. Please note: some of the test items contain multiple problems. (For example #4 might contain several addition problems.) You can choose to count all of the problems as one (aka- if they miss even one, they lose points for the whole section), or you can just deduct a fraction of a point if one of several problems within a numbered problem is missed. The tests are a total of 53 pages, with 23 additional pages being the answer keys, for a total of 76 pages in the document. There is a score line at the top of each test: number correct out of total number of items. (I write students' percentages in a separate grade book.

Fruit Picture-to-Word Matching Game | PowerPoint (PreK–1)

Fruit Picture-to-Word Matching Game | PowerPoint (PreK–1)
Common Core, Speech Therapy, Special Resources, Language Development, ELA, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, Activities, Centers, Games, Presentations, Teacher Tools

I made this fruit picture-to-word matching game as a simple digital activity for early literacy practice. Students click to match each fruit picture with its word. The levels start small with just 3 pairs and gradually increase to 10 pairs, so it works for a range of ability levels and attention spans. Each level includes three versions, which helps keep it from feeling repetitive. This digital game includes: memory levels from 3 to 10 pairs three variations of each level a one-player option a two-player version with a simple scoreboard a PowerPoint Show file (.ppsx) directions built right into the game The fruit vocabulary includes apple, pear, peach, plum, grapes, lemon, kiwi, cherries, banana, orange, watermelon, grapefruit, blueberries, and pineapple. I’ve actually played the highest level with another adult, and it was surprisingly challenging for us (maybe that says something about older brains!). The increasing number of cards really does make a difference. There’s nothing to print or set up. Just open the file and start playing. Important: This game uses PowerPoint animations (including “disappear” effects) and is designed to run in the desktop version of Microsoft PowerPoint. It will not function correctly in Google Slides or in browser-based versions of PowerPoint.

This Ferris wheels reading comprehension with lesson plan includes: Visualization (on the front cover) Start your lesson by taking a minute to think and share something about the topic. Read the script aloud (slowly), perhaps prepare some music or sound effects. Student close their eyes and let their imaginations wander. Students open their eyes, read the question aloud and give them a few minutes to complete. Ask a few students to share or keep answers until the end to compare with what they learn in the passage. Quick pause—thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership. Download links and encyclopedia index available here. Pre-Reading Trivia Students will write down one thing they already know about the subject and then read five more facts and discuss. These facts are fun, and the students will enjoy learning about the subject before reading more. Give 1 minute for students to write what they already know (no pressure—best guess is fine). Read the five facts together. After each fact, do ask a student for their opinion, was it surprising? Set a purpose by asking students to highlight/underline one fact they want to learn more about during the reading. Reading Passage The text is a high-interest reading passage with set paragraphs, roughly three to four paragraphs long. It contains a variety of themes about the topic, anywhere from history to technology. The passage is between 250 and 350 words in length. First, ask students to look at the headings and see what they’ll learn about today. What do they know about the topic/heading? First read options: Teacher read-aloud (best for support). Partner reading (paragraph by paragraph). While reading, students underline important details, and vocabulary words they think may come up in the questions section. Mixed Questions The first question page contains four multiple-choice questions, each with a choice of four answers, and three written response questions that require a sentence or two from the student. Students complete the mcqs first independently, then review quickly as a class. For the 3 written responses, try to get students giving the answer with some form of evidence: “I think ___ because the text says ___.” If students get stuck, send them back to check the passage. Vocabulary Questions Practice seven key words from the text in this section across two activities. First section is scrambled words where students will unscramble three words given a clue for each. The second section is a word to meaning matching activity. Before starting, have some students read out words they underlined in the passage. Ask students to say the word and read aloud the sentence(s) around each word. Ask students to do scrambled words and the matching exercise in pairs then go through answers as a class. For the scrambled spelling task, get four pairs to come up to the board and write the words for extra practice with the other student reading out the clue. For the matching task, prompt students to give full sentences: “I matched ___ with ___ because ___.” Creative Writing In this question, the student will be required to write a five to eight sentence paragraph on a question related to the topic. Before starting, ask students write down 3 key ideas they are going to include in their piece. Ask students for ideas to share around the class to help those struggling. Pro writing expectations: 5–8 sentences At least 2 facts or details from the passage At least 2 vocabulary words from the previous page Students read their paragraphs while classmates listen for facts and vocabulary words. Extension Activities This page is optional for fast finishers or to take home. There are several activities, each one requiring a different skill. Do some, do none, do all, completely optional - but you will feel reassured knowing every possibility is planned for. Includes summary writting question and additional facts. Answer Key There are answers for the multiple-choice questions, written response questions have sample answers, vocabulary answers and if there is a summary question then a sample summary will be provided as well. Lesson Plan Included Customized lesson plan for this lesson is included. Lesson Snapshot Title: Ferris Wheels Genre: Nonfiction (Informational Text) Subject: Social Studies (History) / Science & Technology / Reading (Informational Text) Primary Topic: Origins, design, and purpose of Ferris wheels Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): P What This Lesson Teaches Best Explains the origin story of the first Ferris wheel at the 1893 Chicago world’s fair and why people wanted a daring new attraction. Uses clear facts and measurements (about 264 feet/80 meters , 36 cars , ride cost and time) to build informational reading skills. Shows how Ferris wheels spread to new places and why they’re also called “observation wheels” (because looking is part of the fun). Compares past and present Ferris wheels, including modern wheels built for slow sightseeing like the London Eye with enclosed capsules. Highlights how modern wheels rely on strong steel, careful testing, and steady motors for smooth turns. Learning Goals Students will describe why the 1893 world’s fair crowd wanted something “brand-new” to see. Students will identify key details about the first Ferris wheel (height, number of cars, ride time, and cost). Students will explain why Ferris wheels are also called “observation wheels” using evidence from the text. Students will describe how Ferris wheels spread to other places after Chicago, including the example in Vienna. Students will compare how some Ferris wheels are designed for thrills versus slow sightseeing today. Key Vocabulary From the Text Exposition — a huge fair where inventions and exhibits are shown. engineer — a person who designs and builds things. fairgrounds — the area where a fair is held. capsules — closed pods that carry riders on a wheel. skyline — the outline of a city’s buildings against the sky.

John Dalton – A Short Introduction to a Key Figure in Chemistry Informational Text, Student Tasks & Digital Quiz (PDF + H5P) 🧪📘 A printable and digital resource for grades 7–10 This material introduces students to John Dalton, best known for his early atomic theory and his work on gases. The text is kept simple and clear, making it easy to integrate into lessons on the history of chemistry or atomic structure. It’s especially useful when you want to combine reading comprehension with scientific content. I’ve used this type of material when I needed something structured but flexible – for example, during quiet lesson phases, independent study, or even in a substitute teaching situation. It’s straightforward enough to use without much prep, and students can usually work through it on their own or in pairs. Here’s what’s included: A short reading passage about John Dalton A worksheet where students fill out a basic profile of him Quiz questions to check understanding (with solutions) Two optional follow-up tasks: – Write your own questions about the text – Swap and answer a partner’s questions Available in three formats: – PDF (print-friendly) – Editable .docx (text only) – H5P version for interactive use without images In the classroom: The material works well for independent work or as part of a science station. Students start with the reading text, complete the profile, and then move on to the quiz questions. The optional tasks are a nice way to extend the activity, especially if some students finish early. The H5P version is useful if you’re working in a digital setting or want to offer students the chance to check their answers right away. It’s a calm, focused lesson component that helps students learn about an important scientific thinker – without needing complicated prep or background knowledge. Have fun exploring the world of science with your students! Warmly, Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we focus on creating a positive and inspiring learning environment.
