TRACINT ALPHABET LETTERS - Dinosaur Theme
ELA, Writing, Handwriting, Preschool, Kindergarten, Grade 1, 2, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets

1. Brief introduction: Dinosaurs are always attractive to children, for this reason today I decided to create this fun resource for children to review the letters from A to Z, with a dinosaur theme. It should be noted that this material contains both uppercase and lowercase letters. According to a recent study, children tend to be interested in dinosaurs between the ages of 2 and 6. Furthermore, the study showed that children who tend to focus on dinosaurs are much more intelligent than the rest, because they pay more attention to them and develop other types of skills to be able to address this curious fixation. Infants can also master the names of up to 25 dinosaurs (which is often a challenge for an adult), however, they do master the full name, periods and even their classification. Children's brains are totally awesome! 2. Title of the pedagogical resource: "Letters from A to Z to review with the dinosaur theme" 3. Topic to work on: The letters from A to Z. 4. Area of knowledge where it should be applied: This resource can be applied in the area of literacy and language learning. 5. Number of pages contained: This pedagogical document contains 26 pages. 6. Is it available in color or white/black? It is available in colors, so that it is much more striking. 7. What version is it available in? It is in PDF version, so that it is much easier and more direct to print. 8. Editable/Not editable: It is not editable. 9. Age to which it can be applied: You can apply it to children aged 4,5,6,7 who are learning their first letters and who also need to practice their writing. 10. Tags or keywords that describe the content: alphabet, alphabet, strokes of the alphabet, tracing of the alphabet, tracing of the letters, letters for children, letters to review. 11. Ways to print: I suggest that you print it as is, or if you like, reduce it from 2 sheets to 1, and in colors, so that it is much more attractive for your students.

This television 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.

Key milestones in television’s development (1925 Selfridges demo, 1927 Farnsworth, 1936 BBC service, late 2000s flat-panels). How pictures can be broken into lines/signals and sent by wire, radio, antenna, cable, or internet. The shift from black-and-white to color broadcasts and how viewers experienced that change over decades. Comparing analog and digital signals as two different ways information travels. Learning Goals Students will describe how early television used a spinning Nipkow disk to scan pictures into lines. Students will identify key people, places, and dates from the passage (Baird, Farnsworth, Selfridges, Alexandra Palace). Students will explain how television changed from mechanical parts to all-electronic systems that made clearer pictures. Students will summarize how TV viewing changed from bulky cathode-ray tubes to flat-panel screens and high-definition images. Students will compare analog and digital signals using details from the text. Key Vocabulary From the Text scan — break a picture into lines to send it. signals — messages that carry picture or sound information. broadcasting — sending TV so many people can receive it. analog — a smooth, continuous wave way of sending. digital — coded bits that travel more cleanly.

Helen Keller Worksheet Packet

Helen Keller Worksheet Packet
ELA, Reading, Reading Comprehension, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, 3, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets

The majority of my worksheets are accompanied by a YouTube video, where I give teaching moments through stories. Some stories are about a particular subject, so the teaching moment will be aligned with the topic. But many books are simply entertaining stories where I “create” teaching moments such as… contractions, commas in a series, inferencing, cause/effect relationships, etc. I also always mention capitalization/punctuation because this is an often-forgotten skill. The videos are public, free, and available to anyone. Please know that these videos provide teaching ‘moments,’ not complete lessons on skills. These videos were created to reinforce previously learned skills, as well as preview future skills, depending on the age of the listener. Their purpose is to engage children through story, while at the same time, create a fun learning environment without them even realizing it. What You Get: This is a Helen Keller Worksheet Packet. It is a 24-page printable with answer keys included. How To Implement the Helen Keller Worksheet Packet: You can print off all of the worksheets in this packet or just what you need. After students have watched the video at least once, students will be ready to complete these worksheets and activities. These fun sheets can be used in Daily 5, small groups, as rainy-day activities, when the special area cancels and you’re scrambling to find something to do, on a Fun Friday, the dreaded dress-up week, for subs, etc. I hope you enjoy!

Special Resources, Special Education Needs (SEN), Math, Fact Families, Patterns, Early Math, Multiplication and Division, Division, Numbers, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, 3, Worksheets, Worksheets & Printables

Help your primary students practice counting and skip counting as they develop their number sense and numerical fluency. These fun printables offer excellent fine motor practice for junior students. They could also be implemented as a precursor to multiplication and times table learning. They help students see patterns and relationships when skip counting. How to Use: Provide your students with dot markers (bingo markers). The student begins at zero and places dots in each circle as they count or skip count aloud. Extensions: Encourage your students to look for any numerical patterns: For example, "What is the first number on each worksheet?" "What do you observe about the last number? How is it related to the first number?" "Are there patterns when you look at odd and even numbers?" "What do you see in the ones spot when you count by 5s?" "If you look at the same place on each page, do you see a pattern?" Grades to Use With: These pages could be used by students in preschool to grade 3 depending on how you implement them. In preschool, you may just use the counting by one worksheet to see if students know number order from 1-10. In kindergarten, students could try counting by 2s, 5s, and 10s. In grade 1 and 2, students can work on counting by 3s, 4s, and more. And in grade three, you can use each sheet as an introduction to each times table, one at a time. What's Included: 11 Page PDF- ready to print and dot!

This Guided Reading Book - Snow, Sleet, and Hail (Level H) includes: Guided Reading Color Label (front cover x1) This is a quick way to match the book’s demands to what students can generally handle.. The overall goal is to use the level/color to pick books for several smaller groups. To qualify for a certain level, a student is expected to read a book from that level with about 90–94% accuracy. If a student is consistently accurate and understands, move up a level. If the student is struggling at that level, drop down and add more support. Each student will improve at completely different rates, but it is generally one of the best ways to check progress across the class. DOWNLOAD THE CATALOG TO VIEW ALL GUIDED READING BOOKS AVAILABLE (SORTED LEVELS A-Z) Pre-Reading Question (x1) Teacher asks the prompt aloud, can be while showing the cover or first page. Students share what they already know, or make educated guesses from the cover. Prompt them to use the target vocabulary. Write some of their responses on the board to look back at during the reading. Vocabulary Words (x5) Introduce the five words, best doing it one at a time. Start by saying it, while students repeat and then see if anyone knows what it means before reading further. Read through the meaning and try to briefly connect each word to a picture or gesture so it’s meaningful. Ask students to flip through the book pages and point to where they see each of the vocabulary words. While reading the book pause upon coming across one of the vocab words or read the sentence twice to make sure students understand the word has appeared. Optional: Ask students to raise hands whenever they see/hear one of the new words. Guided Reading Pages (x10) Check the book snapshot (below) for: primary topic - do you need to prep extra reading or intro materials on this? what is taught best - decide on 1-2 bullets to focus on, use the prompt or words provided here for best results. learning goals - what you are checking for students to be able to do after the session, elicit answers using prompts or words provided. key vocabulary (see section above). questions overview - so you know what is coming up and if you need to prep extra materials to assist understanding. Run the lesson You may have already looked at a few of the pages together, but you can show them some of the pictures again first to set meaning. Depending on how much time you have and how familiar your students are with guided reading class, you may want to read the book aloud first with the group first. Students whisper or partner read, while you listen in. If time, do it as a group, one student reading a page each. Use the guided page’s prompts to coach: “Check the picture / does it make sense?” “Point under the words / try the first sound” “Reread the sentence smoothly”. Try to focus more on one student per session (rotating every time), so you can work out if they are ready to move up or need to move down a level. Comprehension Questions (back cover x3) This is your way to check that students didn’t just say the words, but actually understood the text. First, let students answer by pointing to the page/picture and saying a short sentence. After any answer, follow with: “Show me where you found that in the text.” In bigger groups, have partners answer first (10–20 seconds), then call on 2–3 students to share. Differentiation tips: Emerging speakers/struggling readers: oral + pointing On-level: oral in a full sentence Higher: one written sentence or draw + label Book Snapshot Title: Snow, Sleet, and Hail Genre: Nonfiction (informational) Subject: Life Science / Earth Science Primary Topic: Types of frozen water from the sky Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): H What This Book Teaches Best Introduces three kinds of frozen water that fall from the sky: snow, sleet, and hail.

Describes how hail forms and changes size (“grows inside a tall cloud” and “gets bigger and bigger”). Learning Goals Identify snow, sleet, and hail as kinds of frozen water. Describe what the text says snow is like and when it falls. Explain what a snowflake is, using the book’s words. Explain how the book says sleet forms as it falls. Describe how the book says hail forms and grows before it falls. Tell how frozen water affects Earth in the book (it “covers the earth,” and cold weather “changes the land”). Key Vocabulary From the Text crystal — a hard, shiny shape. sleet — rain that freezes as it falls. freezes — turns from water into ice when very cold. bounces — jumps back up after it hits something. hail — hard ice that falls during a big storm. Discussion Prompts Pre-reading question: What kinds of frozen water have you seen fall from the sky? Comprehension questions: What does the book say snow is like when it falls?
