Fiction vs Nonfiction
This resource contains four colored posters that make a fantastic visual for fiction and nonfiction for very young learners. These posters can be displayed in your literacy centers, writing workshop area or your classroom library. These posters are simple definitions for fiction and nonfiction and I suggest that it can be a great way to start your literary genre units. Simply print them poster size and laminate or cover with plastic so that you would be able to have them all year through and from year to year.

This handy set of 135 dual picture cards can be used to spark sentence writing and for your Homonyms | Homographs | Multiple Meaning Words unit. These words represent some of the many common words that can be used in different context. With multiple meaning words the spelling is the same and pronunciation are the same. However, some pronunciations may vary slightly. I included two graphic organizers for extended writing purposes.

Goal Setting
Students are encouraged to write goals by creating S.M.A.R.T. goals. As they do so it is helpful for them to have a visual aid to help them think along the lines of creating sound goals. These posters are a great classroom display for them to refer to whether setting goals for a day, a week, a month or a year.
Included are three (3) classroom general posters:- one with a boy playing soccer, one with a girl playing soccer and one with a simple breakdown of the S.M.A.R.T. goals.
