Four identical monitoring forms each provide space for a name and five observable collaboration behaviours. Stars can be filled as a student takes turns, responds to questions, asks questions, remains on topic, and respects others’ ideas.

Dictionary Skills Alphabetical Order Worksheet

Dictionary Skills Alphabetical Order Worksheet
, Not Grade Specific,

The early pages ask learners to sequence several small banks of unrelated words, building fluency with ordinary alphabetical comparison. Later pages shift to sentences and ask which listed word would appear first or last in a dictionary. That change moves the skill from rewriting full lists to making targeted lookup judgments within context. A final checking page covers both formats, allowing errors in sequencing and first-or-last decisions to be reviewed separately.

Race to the Top Interactive Game

Race to the Top Interactive Game
, Not Grade Specific,

Up to five teams work through sections of problems on a mountain-shaped game board, checking in with the teacher after finishing each section before rolling a die to reveal one of six movement rules — some multiply the roll, some average two rolls, and one lets trailing teams catch up. A team that answers incorrectly must find and fix its mistakes before checking in again, and the first team to reach the top wins five percent extra credit on the next test, according to the built-in Game Rules slide. The problem numbers shown on the board are placeholders in an editable PowerPoint file, so a teacher fills in whichever problem set the class is working through that day.
