This document is available in black and white as well as in color. Actually, it combines both, making it more attractive for your students. COLOR SECONDARY AND COMPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: For what age, grade, or school level is it ideal? I usually create resources for early grades (children ages 3–5), but I also design for primary students (ages 7–12). My priority is to make children’s learning creative. What learning area does it focus on? This and all my resources focus on children’s essential learning, such as math and literacy. Occasionally, I also create resources for Spanish. What will students learn or practice with it? With this educational resource, children will be able to practice basic skills in math and literacy. Teachers can also adapt it to other learning areas, since learning is multidisciplinary. Who will benefit the most from this resource (teachers, families, students, therapists)? I strongly believe education involves many people—teachers, parents, and even therapists. That’s why this resource is open to anyone involved in the learning process.

Binary Mystery Pictures Freebie
Math, Algebra, Place Value, Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
Binary Mystery Pictures This is an extension activity used after the students have had several lessons on place value for base 2. They should have also had practice converting base 10 numbers using 0 and 1 to write numbers in base 2 (binary). The picture activity takes conversion one step further, having the student filling in each box as a 0 or 1, with a 1 represented by a shaded box. Converting the given numbers from base 10 to base 2 will reveal a pixelated image, as a computer would draw it on the screen. The grid is divided into 2 main sections (A and B), each with 8 smaller columns across. Notice the two columns of numbers along the grid to the left. The column of numbers on the left correspond to section A and the numbers on the right correspond to section B. Directions: 1. For each row, convert each base 10 number to base 2. Show your answer by shading in the appropriate boxes in the corresponding column. A shaded box represents that place value as a “1.” Example: In the grid below, the first row lists 0 and 0, so therefore, no boxes are shaded. In the second row in section A, 0 is listed so again no boxes in that section's row are shaded. In the second row, section B, 15 is shown. To represent 15 as an 8-digit binary number, you would shade the first four boxes from the right to represent “00001111” in the place values filled. 2. Continue converting numbers for each row until the picture is revealed.

Miss Marple – A Classic Movie Detective A reading-based worksheet set with optional film tasks (grades 7–10) 🎥🕵️♀️ A printable and digital resource This material introduces students to the character of Miss Marple as portrayed by Margaret Rutherford in the classic black-and-white crime comedies based on Agatha Christie’s novels. Whether your students are already familiar with detective fiction or encountering it for the first time, this resource offers a simple and accessible way to combine reading skills, character study, and media analysis. The core of the material is a short informational text that provides background on the character and the actress who portrayed her. Students work with a structured profile sheet and a short quiz to reinforce their understanding. If you choose to watch a Miss Marple film with your class, there are two additional worksheets: one for summarizing the movie plot and one for writing a short review. What’s included: Informational text about Miss Marple and Margaret Rutherford Worksheet to create a character profile Quiz questions with solution key Film content worksheet (optional use) Film review worksheet (optional use) Solutions for all main tasks Format: PDF (print-friendly and digital) How it works in class: This is the kind of resource I like to keep on hand for flexible lessons. It works well as a quiet reading and writing task on its own, or as part of a small media project. Watching one of the Miss Marple films adds variety to the lesson and gives students a chance to apply what they’ve learned in a fun and creative way. The film-related worksheets are structured, so even students with less writing experience can follow along easily. Great for regular lessons, substitute plans, or simply when you want to bring a bit of classic British mystery into your classroom. Warmly, Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we focus on creating a positive and inspiring learning environment.

Flash Fiction: 24 Creative Writing Prompts for Students
ELA, Writing, Creative Writing, Grade 6, 7, 8, Writing Prompts, Worksheets & Printables
Flash Fiction: 24 Creative Writing Prompts for Students is a slideshow designed for students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grades and includes 24 Flash Fiction Prompts as well as a slide explaining what Flash Fiction is with links to examples, and directions for the students. This slide show is perfect for writing warm-ups, Do Nows, a Creative Writing elective, a Creative Writing unit, or daily practice. The purpose of this slideshow is for students to develop a writing practice in which they write quickly for a short period of time. The goal is to create one or more very short stories of 1000 words or less. Students can choose to write to as many or as few of the slides as they would like over time or they can choose to take one of their Flash Fiction stories and develop it with the idea being that their story will be 1000 words or less. How I use it: I share 3 slides with my students each time we write. I go over each slide first. Over the course of 20-25 minutes, they write to one, two, or all 3 of the slides of their choice. They have 20-25 minutes to write. The next time we write, I include the original 3 and I add 1 or 2 more slides. Eventually, they will see the whole slideshow. Every few days, instead of writing, students break into small groups and choose one of their stories to share with their group members for feedback. Over time, they will have many very short stories or beginnings of stories that they can develop. Students enjoy writing this way--it’s low pressure, it’s dynamic, they have a choice, and it’s fun.
