Back to School ELA Review for 5th Grade | 20 Daily Lessons
ELA, Grade 5, Assessments, Teacher Tools, Lesson Plans, Worksheets & Printables
Start the school year with a comprehensive 5th grade back to school ELA review designed to revisit essential Grade 4 reading, grammar, vocabulary, word study, and writing skills. With 20 daily lessons plus 16 print-and-play literacy games , this resource helps fifth graders refresh key skills, build confidence, and settle into a predictable beginning-of-year ELA routine. Each lesson follows the same four-part rhythm— Read & Think, Language & Grammar, Word Work, and Write About It —with skills spiraling across 20 days from focused review into more complex reading, language, vocabulary, editing, and reflection. A full lesson is designed for approximately 15–25 minutes . What’s Included This 5th grade ELA review includes: ✅ 20 daily ELA review lessons ✅ 40 pages of daily student lessons ✅ Short fiction, nonfiction, and persuasive passages ✅ Four comprehension questions per daily passage ✅ Inference and text evidence practice ✅ Grammar and language review ✅ Vocabulary and word study ✅ Advanced prefixes and suffixes ✅ Greek and Latin roots practice ✅ Daily writing prompts ✅ 16 print-and-play literacy games and activities ✅ Partner and small-group activities ✅ Literacy center options ✅ Complete answer key for all 20 days ✅ Teacher Guide ✅ 20-day pacing overview ✅ Four-week planning guide ✅ Differentiation suggestions ✅ Game preparation directions ✅ Game-to-skill quick-reference map ✅ Class progress record sheet ✅ Family letter for home-school connection ✅ Student reflection ✅ Reading Star Award The 70-page Student Workbook contains 20 daily lessons plus 16 print-and-play games for centers, partners, and small groups. The separate Answer Key provides responses for all 20 daily lessons, organized by section for faster checking, with reasonable student wording accepted for open writing and reflection tasks. How It Works in the Classroom Use this 5th grade back to school ELA review for morning work, whole-group warm-ups, independent practice, literacy centers, small groups, intervention, homework, early finishers, or beginning-of-year formative assessment. Each daily lesson follows a predictable structure: 📖 Read & Think — Students read a short fiction, nonfiction, or persuasive passage and answer four comprehension questions, including inference and text-evidence items ✏️ Language & Grammar — Students revisit a focused Grade 4 grammar or language skill 🔤 Word Work — Students practice advanced prefixes and suffixes, Greek and Latin roots, context clues, connotation, figurative language, shades of meaning, analogies, and academic vocabulary 📝 Write About It — Students complete a short writing task connected to the day’s passage and thinking The Teacher Guide recommends previewing the genre, encouraging students to identify evidence behind answers, modeling the first grammar item, and then releasing students to independent or partner work. The 20-Day Pacing at a Glance chart on page 6 of the Teacher Guide maps the full skill progression across reading, language, and word work. Students move from main idea and summary, theme, character analysis, setting and mood, and plot and conflict into inference, cause and effect, compare and contrast, author’s purpose and claim, point of view, text structure, claim and evidence, text features, summarizing, citing text evidence, drawing conclusions, making inferences, making connections, mixed review, and final reflection. For a four-week routine, teachers can use daily workbook lessons Monday through Thursday and reserve Friday for a literacy game, center rotation, or catch-up. Standards & Learning Goals This Grade 4 skills review for 5th grade revisits key learning across five major ELA strands: 📚 Reading Comprehension — main idea and summary, theme, character analysis, setting and mood, plot and conflict, inference, cause and effect, compare and contrast, author’s purpose and claim, point of view, text structure, claim and evidence, text features, summarizing, citing text evidence, drawing conclusions, making inferences, and making connections ✏️ Grammar & Language — simple, compound, and complex sentences; fragments and run-ons; subject-verb agreement; perfect verb tenses; pronoun-antecedent agreement; prepositional phrases; conjunctions; commas in compound sentences and after introductory elements; appositives; dialogue punctuation; relative pronouns; apostrophes; misplaced modifiers; capitalizing titles; combining sentences; editing; consistent verb tense; and precise word choice 🔤 Word Study — advanced prefixes, suffixes, affix meanings, root review, and Greek and Latin roots 💬 Vocabulary — synonyms and nuance, context clues, homographs, homophones, personification, hyperbole, idioms, connotation, shades of meaning, analogies, academic vocabulary, and mixed vocabulary review 📝 Writing — summary writing, character sketches, sensory description, problem-solution writing, cause-and-effect explanation, compare-and-contrast writing, persuasive paragraphs, first-person narrative, informational explanation, claim-and-evidence writing, text-based responses, mystery writing, narrative continuation, personal connections, and reflection The daily workbook intentionally pairs skills across strands. For example, Day 1 combines main idea and summary with simple, compound, and complex sentences plus prefixes ; Day 8 combines compare and contrast with comma practice and homophones ; Day 11 combines text structure with relative pronouns and roots such as therm, aqua, and chron ; and Day 17 combines making inferences with consistent verb tense and academic vocabulary .

This Jewelry 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: Jewelry Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Reading (Informational Text) / Social Studies Primary Topic: Jewelry history, materials, meaning, and sparkle Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): R What This Lesson Teaches Best Explains that people made and wore jewelry long ago using shells, teeth, and bone, and includes evidence archaeologists found (seashells with holes worn smooth). Shows how new tools changed jewelry-making by shaping gold into beads, bracelets, and pieces worn close to the skin. Introduces where gems come from (hard minerals from the earth and some from living things, like pearls and amber). Describes how cutting gems into flat faces called facets increased sparkle and how factories later made fake gems. Emphasizes that jewelry can matter because of symbols, faith, celebrations, and memories—not only because it is bright or rare. Learning Goals Describe evidence the passage gives that very old shell beads were worn as jewelry. Explain how tools helped people shape gold into jewelry long ago. Identify where different gems can come from (earth minerals or living things) using details from the text. Explain how facets changed the way gems looked and why they started to “dance and flash.” Describe reasons people wear jewelry today (faith, celebration, marking life moments, memories). Key Vocabulary From the Text archaeologists — scientists who study the human past. ceremonies — special events held for a purpose. minerals — natural, nonliving materials from the earth. facets — flat faces cut on a gemstone. amber — hardened sticky tree sap used as a gem.

Animal Research Writing Project on Hippos for K-2. The Animal Research Writing Project on Hippos provides differentiated materials to guide K-2 students through reading informational text, collecting data, and writing about hippos. Students begin by examining real-life photos of hippos to color and give a creative title for the cover page of their report. They read age-appropriate information about habitat, diet, appearance, behavior, and other hippo facts. A color-coded key helps young learners organize the information into categories. After reading, students draw and color the hippo habitat based on what they learned. Two options for graphic organizers allow them to sort facts before writing. Differentiated writing pages scaffold the writing process for emerging writers. A self-checking writing page helps beginning writers reflect on their work. When complete, the project can be compiled into an engaging book that displays student creativity. It promotes reading comprehension, information sorting, and writing skills in an interactive way. The 19-page unit also encourage drawing, coloring, and imagination inspired by the unique traits of hippos. Teachers can implement this versatile resource whole-group, small-group, or as an independent writing activity. It bundles an entire animal research writing unit into one differentiated package. Teachers appreciate the ready-to-use animal units covering reading, note-taking, drafting, illustrating, and publishing.

This fully planned out unit, straying away from Climate Anxiety and allowing students to build agency related to climate action, can be printed right out of this document and used in the classroom immediately. Designed for use in Grades 5–7 (ages 10–14), students will progress through this unit comprehensively by learning about the Carbon Cycle, measuring their actual CO₂e emissions, and creating their own personal plan for sustainability. The unit provides scientific text, real-world case studies (i.e. The Life of a White Cotton T-shirt), 10 individual audit worksheets related to home energy, transportation, diet, consumption, and water use. There is a Carbon Calculator provided which translates students' daily habits into actual data as well as templates for SMART Goal Setting and Advocacy Letters to promote action from students after completing the project. The materials align with NGSS (Earth and Human Activity Standard) and are ideal for Earth Day, STEM, or to promote Environmental Literacy throughout the rest of the school year. Not only does this package come with an extensive Teacher's Guide complete with answer keys, grading rubrics, visual aids, and a flexible 5-day pacing guide; the materials have been scaffolded to help mitigate eco-anxiety with both kindness and evidence-based science. The highlights include: 4 engaging chapters on greenhouse gases, CO₂e, and Life Cycle Assessment 10 student audit worksheets and a Carbon Calculator to synthesize student audit results SMART Goals Workshop for setting student action plans and evaluating systemic actions Professional writing activity related to Advocacy Letters A comprehensive Teacher Key, including Answer Keys, Grading Rubrics, and 5-Day Unit Plan All materials have been classroom-tested and proved to be effective. Appreciated by Parents and Educators: Empowerment Versus Fear – Empowers children and youth to make positive changes by turning their fear of climate change into tangible steps they can take themselves. Real-World Math/Data Skills – Develops mathematics and data-based skills through the calculation of CO₂e from current activities, reinforcing applied math and unit conversion skills and improving critical thinking. Systems Thinking – Students develop a deeper understanding of system relationships and the ripple effects of human activity on the ecological system through Life Cycle Assessment (T-shirts) and permafrost feedback loops. Teacher-friendly, Minimal Prep/Materials Needed – All materials required for implementation are provided (e.g., rubrics, answer keys, visuals, and 5-day pacing guides), so even non-science specialists can implement without difficulty. Opens Up Conversation at Home/School/Community – The advocacy letter and family audit provide an avenue for discussion beyond the classroom, resulting in actual changes to household sustainability. Targeted Grade Levels: The statement in the introduction clearly states that targeted grade levels are ‘5th, 6th, and 7th Grade.’ Therefore, because the math being introduced in this program involves multiplication, metric/unit conversions, basic percentage reasoning and cognitive complexity, I believe students in grades 5 through 7 will best use this resource as follows: Primary Group: 5th – 7th Grade (10-13 year olds) Secondary/Extension Group: (4th Grade) Advanced; 8th – 9th Grade as a basic review of what they learned in grades 5 and/or 6.

Are you bored of hearing "When am I going to use this?" in your math class? Here is a realistic math project that should help! It will change the grocery store into a fun, practical laboratory and give your students the skills needed in their lives. The mini-unit "Grocery Unit Pricing & Inflation Meal Planning" is a complete, no-prep resource to keep students engaged, excited, and working with their math skills. Students won't be sitting in the class just learning theoretical division and percentage problems. They will become smart consumers that will learn to recognize marketing tricks, be aware of inflation, and take quality financial decisions. The 10 worksheets along with clear guides will help students learn how to calculate unit prices and find better prices. WHAT'S INSIDE (47-PAGE FILE): Section One: The Economics of the Aisle (11 pages) An in-depth theoretical resource for educators (or highly skilled undergraduate pupils) on the fundamentals of unit pricing, shelf placement psychology, concepts such as the "Bulk Buying Fallacy" and other inflation-related phenomena, as well as the concept of shrinkflation, which refers to the price increase of a product in real terms. Section Two: Student Workbook (17 pages) 10 Different Worksheets: A carefully designed experience from basic math concepts to intricate and multi-step calculations Worksheet 1: The Fundamentals of Unit Pricing Worksheet 2: Buying Issues in Bulk (Does Bigger Always Mean Better?)

The unit contains all the necessary resources for teachers, leaving no effort to them. The unit includes a teacher's guide, plenty of tips for differentiation, and an answer key. Relevant and exciting content. The idea of “outsmarting the advertisers” and becoming a “shrinkflation detective” is inspiring for kids, awakening their interest in the topic. No mundane tasks; tasks require analytical thinking and drawing conclusions based on the data/figure. Intended Student Groups: Because of its use of math concepts (decimal division, rounding to thousandths, percent of increase/decrease, multiple operations), this PDF can be successfully implemented in the following classes: Primary Audience: Middle school students (grades 6-8).

This whales 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. 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: Whales Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Life Science / Informational Reading Primary Topic: Whales as mammals, feeding types, fossils, human impacts Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): Q What This Lesson Teaches Best Whales are mammals that breathe air with lungs through blowholes , so they must surface as part of everyday life. Whales can have two different feeding tools : baleen plates that strain food like krill, or sharp teeth used to grab fish or squid. Fossils provide evidence that early whale relatives were land mammals and changed over millions of years to live in the ocean. Human activity affects whales today (fishing gear tangles, ships strike, and loud noise can fill the water where whales communicate), and scientists use tracking tools to help protect them. Learning Goals Students will explain why whales rise to the surface using details about breathing and blowholes. Students will compare how baleen whales and toothed whales get food, using evidence from the text. Students will describe what fossils show about where whales came from long ago. Students will identify one modern problem that can make whale communication harder, based on the passage. Students will describe at least one way scientists track whales to protect them, using details from the text. Key Vocabulary From the Text blowholes — nostrils on top of a whale’s head. baleen — mouth plates that strain tiny food from water. krill — tiny sea creatures baleen whales hold onto. streamlined — shaped to move smoothly through water. fossils — old remains in rock that give clues.
