If you want your writing to jump off the page, then bring your reader into the world you are creating. -When describing a past event, try and remember what you saw, heard, touched, smelled, and tasted, then incorporate that into your writing. -Sensory details are used in any great story, literary or not.

This ALL ABOUT ME lap book can be worked on throughout the first week of school, but older students should be able to finish the project in a single day, if necessary.

Perfect for Morning Meeting activities -Fun Friday games, rewards and brain breaks, this NO-PREP game bundle is highly motivating for your students. -From time to time, as relief teachers we will go to a classroom and find that there is no lesson plan waiting. If you are familiar with the subject at hand, you can typically use the textbook as a basis for a lesson about the topic currently being taught. However, an issue arises when you know little about the class’s subject. Improvising for Relief Teachers -It is best to come prepared for the worst with activities and ideas of things to do with students which will engage and keep them on task. Obviously, it is always best to relate any work that you give to the subject if you can, but if not, it is still important to keep students busy and on task. In terms of classroom management, the worst thing to do is to just let them talk. This can often lead to either disruption within the class or even worse noise levels that disturb neighbouring teachers. -There are countless skills that students can develop through game playing such as critical thinking skills, creativity, teamwork, and good sportsmanship. -They are great fun, and I have tried every one of them in my classes. Quickly and easily plan an activity, physical education lessons or math and spelling game with these NO PREP ideas. -We all need to have these games up our sleeve for those lessons that may run short by 1-15 minutes, or as a brain break.

Heads Down, Thumbs Up Silly Sally Going To A Party, Going To The Moon Hula Hoop Pass Grandpa’s House, Grandmother’s Cupboard It Could Be Worse …and much more!

The lines may not suit the font that you are using and so I have provided you with a blank sheet that can be used for you to add the line style that is used in your particular school or district. In Australia, for example, we have a different font style for each state and so it would be incredibly difficult to create a resource for everyone of them….hence this resource being made editable. If you would prefer not to do the editing yourself, I am happy to do it for you for you for a small fee (you would need to provide the font for me to use as I don’t have all school fonts on my computer) This is for use by one teacher in one classroom.
