FULL CATALOG OF DOWNLOAD LINKS AND ENCYCLOPEDIA INDEX HERE Lesson Snapshot Title: Pencils Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Science & Technology (materials/manufacturing) / Reading Informational Text Primary Topic: How pencils were invented and made Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): S What This Lesson Teaches Best How early pencil “lead” was actually graphite , discovered in 1564 in northern England, and why the nickname “lead” stuck. How soft graphite needed a protective holder, leading to wooden casings and shapes that are easier to grip and don’t roll away. How mixing powdered graphite with clay (and other binders ) helped control how dark or light a pencil writes (H, HB, B). How a factory process turns materials into pencils (mixing, pressing into rods, firing, adding wax, grooving cedar slats, painting). How inventions changed pencils over time, including an eraser patented on the end and the later appearance of mechanical pencils. Learning Goals Students will explain why pencils are called “lead” pencils even though they are not made of lead. Students will describe how people first used graphite before modern wooden pencils existed. Students will explain how adding different amounts of clay changes how a pencil writes. Students will identify at least two steps from the passage that happen in a pencil factory. Students will describe one improvement to pencils mentioned in the passage (eraser or mechanical pencil). Key Vocabulary From the Text graphite — a soft black rock that makes marks. plumbago — an old name people used for graphite. casing — the outer cover that holds the core. binders — materials that help hold ingredients together. ferrule — a metal band that holds an eraser. Cored Ed Encyclopedia Overview The Cored Ed Encyclopedia is a weekly series of lessons that you can pick up and use right away. These short readings fit into whatever time you have available. Each one includes a warm-up, a reading, and a set of questions, but it’s flexible — you can do just the reading, the full lesson, or skip the writing section if you need to. Each lesson focuses on a single topic so students don’t get lost. The writing is clear but never childish, making it perfect for grades two through five. Topics range from animals and science to history, inventions, and everyday things. No matter the level of the student, everyone should take away at least one new idea or fact from each lesson. The materials are easy to print, easy to explain, and require no setup. They work well for whole-class teaching, partner work, or independent study.

Word Search puzzles are so much fun, and a great learning activity to add to your classroom. These word searches are themed, month to month, and are EDITABLE so that you can get a ton of use out of them and differentiate them for many learners. Use one of the blank word searches to write the words of your choice in the locations you wish. Next, delete the filler letters and add your words in the desired location on the editable word search. If you wish to change this word search from time to time, simply move the words around and scramble up the letters a bit. For older students, include forward, backward, diagonals, going up and down words. You may want to use some of the less common words from the suggested words list and or add your own that may be related to your curriculum. For younger or special groups of students, you may chose easier words and place them in easier locations such as left to right, on the end of the puzzle, or not sharing any letters(crossing over each other). These fun word searches are great to pull out each month to recognize the current holiday or season. Word searches are a wonderful way to expand vocabulary. Go through the word lists and make sure your students know what each word means. Another fun way to use these word searches is to have students make them for each other. Just give them a blank template and have them place their words first, then fill in the other boxes with miscellaneous letters. Be sure they keep track of their words.

Teaching critical social emotional skills while getting kids to enjoy writing during the early elementary years is key. One way we can do that is to tie in their interests to the writing process. Practicing conversation skills takes time, and one of the ways we can set up safe spaces for our learners to think through the consequences of certain actions is by role playing and creating stories. This resource (and the others that complement it in this series!) seeks to provide the scaffolding needed for learners to imagine and begin telling a story in written form. Then they're invited into 5 different STEAM extension activities to keep the conversations going. Thinking about the way we think is a foundational skill for growing the executive functions our kiddos will use in the editing process. For this reason, a short checklist has been included at the end of page 4 so that learners can begin to go back and check their work. This key skill in developing healthy executive functioning is intentionally made visible to students to prompt ownership over the quality of their writing. STANDARDS: Meets CCSS Writing standards for grades 2-5. Remember, there are over a year's worth of writing activities in this line! Keep the fun stories rolling by checking out holiday, winter, summer, life skills, and adventure writing activities from Melissa Is Teaching! This printable is optimal for 2nd-5th graders as they take on the cognitively heavy task of writing a narrative, while also supporting them with the scaffolding and inspiration in the provided idea matrix. BONUS: Take advantage of the 4+ extension activity ideas included in this printable. These activities will take their writing beyond the page and bring it to life in STEAM-supported outlets. What you'll get: a 4 page PDF including instructions, extension activity ideas, and 3 student pages. One of these pages is simply writing space for you to print off as many copies as you need based on the amount your students are writing. You'll also find the editing checklist to prompt students to edit their own work for spelling, capitalization, and punctuation.

Describes how noodles are formed into strands (rolled and cut, or stretched and pushed through holes). Compares noodle ingredients around the world (wheat flour and water, eggs, rice, and other starches). Builds historical understanding by sharing evidence of very old noodles found in China and explaining how noodles traveled through trade and migration. Uses sensory and descriptive language to explain how noodles soak up flavor and can feel slippery, springy, soft, cold, or crisp. Learning Goals Explain what noodles are and what “unleavened dough” means, using details from the text. Describe two ways noodles can be made into strings or strands. Identify different noodle shapes mentioned in the passage (straight, curly, wide ribbons). Compare ingredients used for noodles in different places, based on the passage.

Migration — moving from one place to another. Strand — one long, thin piece, like a noodle string. Cored Ed Encyclopedia Overview The Cored Ed Encyclopedia is a weekly series of lessons that you can pick up and use right away. These short readings fit into whatever time you have available. Each one includes a warm-up, a reading, and a set of questions, but it’s flexible — you can do just the reading, the full lesson, or skip the writing section if you need to. Each lesson focuses on a single topic so students don’t get lost. The writing is clear but never childish, making it perfect for grades two through five. Topics range from animals and science to history, inventions, and everyday things. No matter the level of the student, everyone should take away at least one new idea or fact from each lesson. The materials are easy to print, easy to explain, and require no setup. They work well for whole-class teaching, partner work, or independent study.

It could also be used for independent reading, homework, or holiday work. It could also be used for literacy stations, read-aloud practice, or sub plans. Extension Ideas There are several ways to extend the lesson, including reading twice—first for understanding, and the second time to find the key details. Perhaps you can highlight or underline a detail that answers the comprehension questions. You can also turn it into a writing activity: What did you learn, or retell the story using first, next, then, finally. You could even choose a vocabulary word, draw it, with a caption from the text. For more advanced learners, perhaps you can compare this to another text they have read recently. Differentiation Tips For differentiation, if the words are hard, then perhaps you can preview some of them before you begin. For responses, perhaps you can give the students the first few words, for example, “In the book…”. You can also pair up the students, which normally leads to one of them helping the other. You can read it through again for fluency. Perhaps you can read two or three pages at a time and then come together as a group and analyze.
