Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie Novel Study Guide / Literature Unit

Created by

What Teachers Need

Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie by Jordan Sonnenblick is a story you'll never forget. When asked to pick a book for a school-wide read, this one was my first choice. In order to help all of our teachers successfully participate in our school-wide read, I created this novel study guide so the entire faculty, no matter their certification, could easily teach this novel. It can be used for upper elementary, middle grades, and high school classes (especially struggling readers in the upper grades).I

Transition Words (Linking Words) Anchor Chart

Created by

Rebecca Taylor

Many writing rubrics require the usage of "varied and sophisticated" transition words in paragraph writing. I got tired of reading "Then... then... and then..." or "Next... next... next...", so I created this anchor chart to help my students self-select more creative and specific transition words. This will remain clear (non-pixelated) up to a 3 ft X 4 ft poster, but prints well as a sheet or half-sheet reference guide as well.
