High School and Middle School English: focus on the process and use revision stations to do so. Read about how I use them in my classroom.
Have fun while reviewing figurative language- alliteration, onomatopoeia, similes, metaphors, idioms, and personification. The games have drag and drop interactions, an automatic timer and scoring, and sound effects. Your students will love these kinesthetic alternatives to worksheets!  In this NO PREP interactive whiteboard game, students race against the clock to match example phrases or sentences with the type of figurative language it is. $

Teaching children to think about themes in the stories they read   increases their comprehension. It's sometimes a difficult co cept to grasp at grade 3 level so discuss it early using picture books with obvious themes.
Theme is a tough concept for students. This Bump Game uses graphic organizer questions on the Game Board. It’s a great way to keep the kiddos thinking about what questions to ask to help determine Theme. The game format makes it fun.   The Task Card Response Page makes a perfect whole class activity or break the class into small groups to increase their understanding.

Once students enter the room each day, the timer begins. The timer stops once lunch count/attendance is taken on the Smartboard, everybody's materials are out on their desk with their binder underneath the desk, and everyone is seated. Sixth grade students love competing to beat their previous time. The best part? I don't have to say a word. My students encourage everyone to follow expectations and get ready to go as fast as they can.

#Daily5 #CAFE #LanguageArts This is a great way to quickly and informally assess students during small group or individual instruction -- students write a statement in response to what they have read, discussed, or learned, as well as a question.
