3 Branches of Government Sort Worksheet
This is a sorting worksheet I made for my students to show what they've learned about the three branches of government. Everything I looked for was much too difficult for my CDC students, so I created this worksheet as a simple activity but one that still covers all the important concepts.

Narrative Revising and Editing Checklist (Self and Peer)
This checklist is used after students have written narrative stories. They will go through their stories with the checklist independently first. Then they will have a classmate use the same checklist to read their story. At the end, the peer can leave comments with advice and feedback. This has been helpful in building independence during writing, rather than having a line waiting for me to read their stories!

Spanish Reader's Theater--Caperucita Roja (Little Red Riding Hood)
Reader's Theater is a great tool for building fluency in reading. As a bilingual educator I have found that Spanish reader's theater is a valuable tool to get Spanish language learners to practice their oral development. Although I have used these scripts in my First grade classroom, they would also work well for secondary Spanish classes.
Little Red Riding Hood is easy to follow with its repetitive phrases and familiar storyline. This reader's theater is an excellent way for students who are

Using A Dictionary - A Dictionary Scavenger Hunt
Students don't use the dictionary as often as they should. Part of the reason, I believe, is because they don't know how and they don't really know what's in there. I use this activity to force students to get into the dictionary and find out all that it has to offer. It's also a great activity to meet CCSS L.4.4.c or L.5.4.c.

"The Jungle Book" Novel Study/Literature Circle Questions and Vocabulary
I received a 6-pack of "The Jungle Book" retold from Rudyard Kipling as part of my September 2018 Scholastic order but the book is not the same as other versions out there so the chapters and questions did not align with anything that I found.

Importance of learning English language arts
English language arts (ELA) concepts — reading, writing, listening, and speaking — empower students to become effective communicators, critical thinkers, and lifelong learners. They are the foundation for all other types of learning as students must rely on ELA skills to master content from other subject areas and communicate what they’ve learned.
Strong reading skills can help students make sense of written content, and gather information for further analysis. Writing skills can help students articulate their ideas, construct arguments, and synthesize information. And speaking and listening skills empower students to clearly present their ideas, participate in group discussions, and collaborate with their classmates. This is why teaching English language arts is critically important for student’s success in school and beyond.
