Do you have students who have a hard time sharing? Do they grab or hoard materials? Do they have trouble sharing recess materials or during small group activities? Mine do! I made this activity to help students who needed explicit teaching to understand how, what and why to share. The activities are fun, interactive, and young child friendly so that students can really gain an understanding of how they can share many different items, even things that are not material, such as friendship. These activities are great for students age or ability level K-2nd grade. My students really enjoy doing these fun activities. I hope yours do too.

This toothbrushes reading comprehension 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: Toothbrushes Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Science (Health & Technology) Primary Topic: How toothbrushes changed over time Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): R What This Lesson Teaches Best Explains how people cleaned teeth before store-bought toothbrushes by chewing a twig until it turned “fuzzy” and rubbing it on teeth. Shows how evidence from the past (archaeologists finding signs in places like Mesopotamia and Egypt) can tell us about tooth care long ago. Traces the history of the bristled brush from China’s Tang dynasty to Europe in the 1600s, highlighting how inventions travel. Describes how toothbrush designs changed to solve problems (for example, natural bristles staying damp and trapping bacteria). Summarizes key innovations—nylon bristles (1938) and the electric toothbrush (1954)—and connects them to the ongoing goal of protecting teeth. Learning Goals Students will describe how a “chew stick” was used to clean teeth long ago. Students will identify evidence in the text that people cared about clean mouths thousands of years ago. Students will explain how the bristled brush began in China and later spread to Europe. Students will summarize how toothbrush-making changed after 1780 using details about materials and design. Students will explain why inventors searched for new bristle materials and what nylon changed. Students will describe how an electric toothbrush helped brushing by adding steady motion. Key Vocabulary From the Text archaeologists — scientists who study the past using old remains. Mesopotamia — an ancient region where people lived long ago. miswak — a special stick used for cleaning teeth. patent — legal rights that protect an invention. bacteria — tiny germs that can cause problems.

Are you introducing 4th graders to the concept of government and its role in our states? Through engaging activities, students will explore the differences among national, state, and local and state governments, understand the importance of laws and justice, and learn how governments function to serve the people. This 15 day unit includes day by day planning with suggested activities for differentiation. Typically used in a high ability classroom, it is appropriate for all students. Teaching methods used: Simulation, foldables, Nonfiction research, graphic organizers, group work, individual work, (suggested) guest speakers, and traditional assessment Unit includes: Alignment page showing 4th grade social studies state standards, Common Core Reading and Writing standards, and National Council of Social Studies Themes 15 day lesson plan broken into standard, reading/information source, and activities Vocabulary journal + answer key Foldable activity for three branches of government Individual Rights in Action choice project Mock election simulation Sequencing activity for election process 6 nonfiction reading passages (+ answer keys) How a Bill Becomes a Law Simulation (all three branches of government represented, based off of picture book Click, Clack, Moo by Doreen Cronin) Rubrics for all projects and answer keys where applicable Traditional vocabulary quiz List of possible guest speakers Government focus: Since fourth grade is more state based, the content and projects focus mainly on state government. The branches of government and responsibilities of important people within the government include national organizations and expectations (i.e.: President, Congress, and Supreme Court). If it is an election year, the election activity can easily be adjusted to "Elect a President" instead of making a decision about what to vote about within their school. I also recommend extending this simulation, instead of passing a bill into a law. You will want to look up a kid/student friendly version of your state's constitution to help you in some activities, or transition to U.S. Constitution Bill of Rights.
