2026 March ELA Bell Ringers

As a homeschool mom, I created this 2026 March ELA Bell Ringers set because I noticed those essential skills, like rhetoric and grammar, were getting buried in the busyness of our bigger unit studies, and I did not want them forgotten. With these daily warm-ups, we now have a seamless routine that gets my daughter's brain in gear the moment she sits down. These daily warm-ups have transformed our 'slump time' into a few minutes of calm, focused critical thinking, making the jump into high school English so much easier for both of us. I love that she can complete one as she is having her piece of toast first thing in the morning and preparing for her day!

INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE:

• The entire month of March 2026 is mapped out and ready to go.

• Focuses on high-level rhetoric, logic, and ethical inquiry.

• Uses prompts from historical figures to spark genuine conversation.

• Includes both digital (PPTX) and print (PDF) options for easy use.

TOPICS COVERED:

• Tackles appeals (ethos, pathos, logos) and speech structures.

• Deconstructs irony and narrative points of view.

• Prompts on censorship and artistic responsibility (great for sparking debate!).

• Manipulates sentence structure for professional clarity.

As a busy parent and teacher, I know exactly how precious our instructional minutes are, and bringing these March 2026 ELA Bell Ringers into our routine has been an absolute game-changer. It is a joy to watch the consistent, varied exposure to these prompts help my 9th grade daughter become more articulate, a thoughtful communicator, and I cannot wait for you to experience those same "aha!" moments and see that beautiful growth in your own learners. Happy teaching!
