Critical Thinking: Morning Work Warm-Ups 5th 6th 7th 8th Homeroom

Do you need some new activities for your middle school homeroom class with 5th, 6th, 7th or 8th grade students? Do you want a consistent routine to start your day on a good note of learning and fun? I have the full-term morning work powerpoint presentation just for you!

This presentation is a helpful tool to use as your morning routine with any middle school students!

Students can use a special notebook for this task or they could use whiteboards, or whatever routine is best for your group.

This editable powerpoint presentation has activities for each weekday with enough slides for one whole term (60 days of school).

The slides are completely editable, so you can use them as a template and make more for future semesters.

You can also ask students (especially early finishers) to help make extra slides.

What are the Daily Categories?

Math Monday: Mondays are for math! Students can review tons of intermediate math skills with fun word problems and puzzles that cover topics like ratios, money, area, and more!

Trivia Tuesday; Tuesdays are for Trivia! Students will be asked questions about science, social studies, financial literacy and more! These will be great discussion starters too!

Would You Rather Wednesday: This is a great way to practice speaking and listening skills. Students will be given two options and have to share their choice and their reasons and justifications.

Thesaurus Thursday: Thursdays are for expanding vocabulary as students think of synonyms for boring words.

Focus Friday: Fridays are for puzzles as students solve brain teasers and logic puzzles!
