This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about classifying all types of triangles by lengths of sides.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach third graders an overview of triangle classifications.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach third graders about classifying triangles based on equal sides.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about classifying triangles based on equal sides.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to give fourth graders an overview of triangle classifications.

This lesson unit is intended to help teachers assess how well students are able to classify solutions to a pair of linear equations by considering their graphical representations. In particular, this unit aims to help teachers identify and assist students who have difficulties in: using substitution to complete a table of values for a linear equation; identifying a linear equation from a given table of values; and graphing and solving linear equations.

In this activity, students will study how temperature and concentration affect reaction rates and then design a procedure to get the reaction to occur in a specified amount of time. This activity is meant to be used as a performance-based assessment. Detailed student instructions, handouts, and a grading rubric are included.

For this assessment, students help Mike determine which cards to pick to get close to 20, then explain their reasoning.

In this scenario-based, problem-based learning (PBL) activity, students investigate cloud formation, cloud classification, and the role of clouds in heating and cooling the Earth; how to interpret TRMM (Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission) images and data; and the role clouds play in the Earth’s radiant budget and climate. Students assume the role of weather interns in a state climatology office and assist a frustrated student in a homework assignment. Learning is supported by a cloud in a bottle and an ice-albedo demonstration, a three-day cloud monitoring outdoor activity, and student journal assignments. The hands-on activities require two 2-liter soda bottles, an infrared heat lamp, and two thermometers. The resource includes a teacher's guide, questions and answer key, assessment rubric, glossary, and an appendix with information supporting PBL in the classroom.

Students will create a narrative as if they are one particular type of cloud.  This task is only intended to engage students in showing their knowledge of cloud types.  This resource does not completely cover 5.E.1.2.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about coins and bills.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fifth graders about coins and bills.

Students will review collective and compound nouns by answering multiple choice questions about each noun type.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about combining units using addition and subtraction (metric units).

This lesson is actually a combination of 7 lessons you can complete over multiple days.  I would suggest creating an anchor chart with these rules to refer to whenever students are writing.  

These resources were designed to help teachers build students’ capacity to read, think, talk, and write about complex texts. The 6-8 ELA modules fully address all the strands of the Common Core state standards: the reading standards for both literary and informational texts, the writing standards, the speaking and listening standards, and the language standards.

To ensure that students receive adequate support and practice, as well as sufficient time to meet the volume of reading required by the CCSS, this Interventions resources package provides suggestions and examples of literacy work to support, reinforce, and provide additional practice of the skills learned in the EL Education ELA modules.

This resource designed to help school leaders, instructional coaches, general education teachers, special education, and intervention teachers think and plan together about strategic ways to best use additional support time beyond the typical ELA block. The suggestions here could certainly be applied to all learners, but are targeted particularly for students who aren’t meeting grade level standards during a standard class period.

This package contains suggestions that teachers can adapt to meet the specific needs of their students needing additional support. Teachers should use their judgment and knowledge of the abilities of their particular students to focus this additional ELA practice and instruction where it is required, and to adapt the activities and examples accordingly.

There are various ways to organize time so teachers can pull small groups and provide additional whole-class instruction on discrete skills, as deemed necessary by formative assessments.

This package includes:
• Word Study and Vocabulary
• Additional Work with Related Texts
• Fluency
• Syntax and Mechanics
• Independent Reading
• Sample Schedule
