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.

Alkali Metals Concept Wheel – Interactive Chemistry Activity for Grade

Alkali Metals Concept Wheel – Interactive Chemistry Activity for Grades 7–10 Learn Alkali Metals - visual learning 🧪🧠 This concept wheel is a practical way to help students understand the alkali metals in Group 1 of the periodic table. I first made it for a grade 8 class that was struggling with the idea of chemical families. Instead of giving them another chart to copy, I tried this wheel activity, and it worked much better because they could see and handle the information piece by piece. The wheel has eight sections that cover the basics: general properties, reactivity, how these elements appear in nature, and some everyday uses. Students cut out and arrange the pieces to build the full circle. The activity takes a little bit of preparation, but once the pieces are made, you can reuse them. I usually store the sets in small envelopes so they are ready for the next lesson. There are different versions included. Some circles are already filled in, which is helpful when introducing the topic for the first time. Others are blank, so students can write their own notes after a lab or reading assignment. I have used the blank ones during review sessions, and students liked comparing their wheels with a partner’s version. It also gives them a sense of ownership over the material. The wheel can be used in many ways: as a warm-up before a lab, as practice during a unit on the periodic table, or as a review before a quiz. It works for group tasks, but I have also had students complete it on their own. When the wheels are finished, they make a clear visual display for the classroom or for a student’s notebook. This activity is designed for grades 7–10 chemistry or physical science. It supports lessons on periodic trends, classification of elements, and the special role of the alkali metals. 📍 Best wishes, Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and welcoming learning environment. 🐶 Explore the table beyond the learning circle with this periodic table WebQuest .

Phonics / Digraphs for 1st and 2nd Grade: Beginning, Middle, and Ending Sounds
ELA, Reading, Reading Comprehension, Grammar, Language Development, Phonics, Pre-Reading, Grade 1, 2, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets, Teacher Tools, Lesson Plans
This unit focuses on the Beginning, Middle and Ending Digraph sounds. Learning how to read can be the most challenging activity for many students and for a teacher. A digraph in the English language are two letters put together that represents a single sound or phoneme. Understanding that the combination of letters can make one sound can be difficult to master and requires repetitive practice of reading and writing these words with these sounds. There are other phonics units that I sell that focuses on the Beginning Digraph sounds, and one that focuses on just the Ending Digraph sounds. Reading can be made easier with these phonic helps that repeatedly encourage students to practice these Beginning, Middle and Ending Digraph sounds. Activities include reading comprehension and identifying the digraphs in their reading, writing their answers to questions regarding the paragraph, identifying additional digraph words in sentences using a word bank, matching words with pictures, spinning a paperclip activity where students will write the word with the digraph sound, and lastly a fun wordsearch with the digraph words. These activities are for each digraph so there is plenty of opportunities for students to practice their comprehension reading skills and phonic sounds. Students will practice the following Beginning, Middle and Ending Digraph sounds: ch, sh, th, wh, and ph. Teachers can use this resource in whole group, individually with students, students can practice with each other in centers, or they can be assigned as homework. Worksheets are also differentiated for each Beginning, Middle and Ending Digraph sound for all young learners which makes it perfect for all 1st - 2nd graders. A total of 33 pages full of reading and phonic activities. Along with reading and writing, there are matching, cutting, and pasting activities. Word searches and spin and make a word activity are also a part of this packet which make learning to read these phonic sounds entertaining for young learners.

Tally Marks Game – Learning to Count with a Soccer Twist Similar to Dobble / Spot it! A hands-on matching game for grades 1–6 (PDF – Dobble / Spot It! style) ⚽📊 This resource is a playful way to help students practice tally marks while staying active and engaged. The game is based on the popular “Find the Twin” concept (similar to Dobble or Spot It!) and helps children recognize and count tally lines quickly and confidently. Each card shows six symbols – including different tally mark patterns – and players have to find the matching pair between any two cards. The game encourages concentration, quick visual comparison, and number recognition, all while reinforcing how tally marks work. What’s included: 93 cards total → 3 full sets with 31 cards each 3 versions: → round cards → cut-friendly square cards → hexagonal cards All with clear, child-friendly visuals Instructions for flexible classroom use How I’ve used it in class: I like to use this game in small math stations or as a warm-up activity. It’s also a favorite for early finishers or during quieter times when a bit of movement and interaction is helpful. You can laminate the cards for long-term use, or simply print them on heavier paper. The game works in pairs or small groups – and students pick up the rules quickly. Beyond basic counting, the game helps introduce how we group numbers for clarity, which is a useful step toward early data handling and bar graphs. And the sporty theme adds just the right amount of energy. Print, cut, and play – no prep needed, and lots of learning packed into a simple activity. Warm regards, Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we focus on creating a positive and inspiring learning environment.

Most students have heard of DNA, but they often don’t know much about how its double helix structure was uncovered – or who was involved in the process. Together with Francis Crick, and building on key work by Rosalind Franklin, Watson helped lay the groundwork for modern genetics. To make this big topic more manageable in class, I’ve put together a short, ready-to-use lesson. It includes an informational text, a fact sheet, quiz questions with answers, and a few creative tasks that get students thinking and engaging with the content. All materials are included in both color and black-and-white versions for flexible use – whether printed or on-screen. What’s included: A short, accessible text on James Watson and the discovery of DNA A fact sheet to help students organize and reflect on the key ideas Quiz questions (with solutions) to check understanding A creative task where students come up with their own questions and discuss them in pairs Formats: PDF for printing or digital use, plus an H5P version for interactive learning Answer key included I’ve used this in biology lessons as part of a genetics unit, but it also works well when exploring the history of science or how scientific discoveries are made. It’s especially helpful when time is short and you want something that’s both informative and easy to implement – no extra prep needed. 🚀 Download now and bring the legacy of James Watson into your biology lessons today! 📍 Best wishes, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know?

ELA, Language Development, Phonics, Preschool, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
A comprehensive pack of 114 fully differentiated phonic worksheetscovering all of the digraphs and trigraphs for phases 3 and 4 of the UK Gov. Letters and Sounds phonic programme, except ‘ure’. The sounds covered are: ck, ch, sh, th, ng, ai, ee, igh, oa, oo, ar, or, ur, ow, oi, ear, air, and er, in this order. When can I use these sheets? They are great for revision, general classwork, or homework. They can be used with large or small groups or with individuals by tutors. How can I use the Phases 3 and 4 Phonic Worksheets? Use them for assessment , and reinforcement activities; blow them up for whole class/group teaching or send them home for extra practice once taught in class. Copy, reduce, and enlarge as much as you like. What is included in the pack? I provide up to four sheets at two levels for most sounds: the first set for phase 3, with no consonant blends, and the second for phase 4 including words with consonant blends. Thereby giving plenty of scope for differentiation. Fully differentiated, they meet the real needs of the average class and are fully systematic: no words are introduced for which the student has not yet learned the necessary skills to decode. They provide ample practice for students in both reading and spelling. Sheets with mixed sounds are included too, as well as plenty of sentences to read and puzzles. Can I use them with other programmes? They are suitable for use with other schemes as long as you make sure that your children know the sounds necessary to complete the sheet. No clip art.
