IT'S ABOUT TIME, TEACHERS, for NATIONAL POETRY MONTH!

 

April is National Poetry Month. Naturally, you need resources. As a poetry lover and poet, I've taken the time to make resources that will save your time! Check these out:

These POETRY POSTERS provide a quick reference for teachers & students about 20 types of poetry.  Each bright and attractive anchor chart describes a poetry type, as well as providing an example poem. Displayed in your classroom, they provide educational decor and student writing guides.

POETRY TASK CARDS provide a variety of ways for students to interact with virtually any poem you may be studying. Skills range from simple identification of high frequency words to homophones; punctuation to personification; and suffixes to cinquains. Interactions range from highlighting items on the pupils' personal copies of poems to creating poetry of their own.

Take your class on a POETRY SAFARI. This unit provides writing prompts, anchor charts, recording sheets, and craftivities. Your primary learners will love this journey!

Because I want to share my love of poetry, I have created numerous poetry units. These products offer original poetry, print ready for anthologies. Also included are scores of POETRY POSSIBILITIES: teaching points, skill lessons, and activities custom designed for each poem.

Some units focus on seasonal topics. 

Others focus on specific curricula and interests. Fill your academic year with poetry resources!

 

IT'S ABOUT TIME, TEACHERS, for PRESIDENTS!

 

Inauguration Day is Jan. 20th and Presidents' Day is Feb. 17th. So, it's about time for some presidential resources.

How about some trivia about our leaders? These 20 task cards will reveal interesting and intriguing facts about our presidents. Use them for a research project or enrichment. Available digitally and in print. Click here to jump to the product page.

Extend the learning to math and literacy with VOCABULARY FRACTIONS TASK CARDS. Your learners will reveal the names of presidents by combining fractional parts of words. They must deduce the correct word represented by the picture and use correct spelling. Solving equivalent fractions provides even more challenge. These task cards are presented in print and digitally on TPT Easel.

PRESIDENTS VOCABULARY FRACTIONS are so fun that I made 2 sets! Click here for the 2nd edition.

PRESIDENTS SQUARE PUZZLERS are fun and challenging brain teasers. The puzzles must be reconstructed so that the images match on every interior side. This builds perseverance and stamina, but disguises it all as fun.

Some poetry for presidents allows you to teach about the presidents, poetry, and so many other topics. Check out the POETRY POSSIBILITIES provided to find skill lessons and activities.
