Blog Photo Release by Holly Hawley is licensed under a .
Does this sound familiar...you come back from lunch and recess and your plan is to begin your lesson but your students are too chatty and excited to settle and you waste the next ten minutes trying to get them back on track? Or maybe you clean up before special a few minutes too early and you have about five extra minutes before your class needs to leave? Or my favorite, the buses are running late and your administrator announces dismissal will be about ten minutes behind schedule. Soooo....what do you do?
Don't waste those few minutes! You can absolutely save your sanity, sneak in a bit more review and enrichment, and engage the class without needing a bunch of supplies. Pull up a task card on the board or read it to your class and have your students practice those tricky word problems. If you are someone who keeps math journals, have your students work out the problem in their notebooks. Or use dry erase boards. Or hey just for fun, write on their desks!!
This month you can focus on two and three digit numbers using place value. The wording is switched up so the students are not always hearing the same place value listed first. There are 20 days worth of problems that increase in complexity as the month progresses. An ANSWER KEY is also included!
These task cards are geared towards second graders but could be used for high first graders or struggling third graders.

Place Value Word Problem Task Cards-SEPTEMBER by Holly Hawley is licensed under a .
My Magic Tree House Text Dependent Question resources are the perfect way to get your kiddos back into the text finding the answers to those higher level questions. They are a great way to start prepping those second graders for the following testing year.
We use the Magic Tree House series in our enrichment groups and were looking for ways to go beyond the "in your face" straight forward comprehension questions and to get our students to go deeper. One of the problems we faced with close reads was all the text marking.
Here we are able to take a variety of questions and have our students dig through the text but instead of marking up our novels, they are showing their understanding of finding themes, defending their claims, comparing, and analyzing their reading.
Each one of our Magic Tree House text dependent resources has 10 questions which vary in type and complexity. There is a journal cover page if you want to print all the questions off and create a mini-workbook. Or if you would prefer picking and choosing which questions you have that option.
Our text dependent questions are ink friendly. All black and white. They are really simplistic and clean. We steered away from too many distracting graphics and focused on the content instead.
PLEASE NOTE***This is geared towards a second-third grade classroom but could meet the needs of higher first graders. These are NOT chapter by chapter comprehension questions.

Good Morning, Gorillas Text Dependent Questions by Holly Hawley is licensed under a .
Does this sound familiar...you come back from lunch and recess and your plan is to begin your lesson but your students are too chatty and excited to settle and you waste the next ten minutes trying to get them back on track? Or maybe you clean up before special a few minutes too early and you have about five extra minutes before your class needs to leave? Or my favorite, the buses are running late and your administrator announces dismissal will be about ten minutes behind schedule. Soooo....what do you do?
Don't waste those few minutes! You can absolutely save your sanity, sneak in a bit more review and enrichment, and engage the class without needing a bunch of supplies. Pull up a task card on the board or read it to your class and have your students practice reading sentences with different types of expression.
One of my favorite ways to introduce expressive reading to my students is to read The Monster at the End of This Book. On some pages I would whisper. Some pages I would shout. Some pages I would use my best Grover imitation. My students loved to echo the sentences in whatever voice I chose. Help your students increase their fluency by practicing oral reading and expressive reading by practicing reading the same sentence using different types of expression based on punctuation. The sentences are simple. These are not paragraphs, just quick sentences to practice reading the same words differently based on punctuation.
These task cards are geared towards second graders but could be used for high first graders. Make it F.U.N. Try echo reading in the silliest, scariest voices you can!

My Magic Tree House Text Dependent Question resources are the perfect way to get your kiddos back into the text finding the answers to those higher level questions. They are a great way to start prepping those second graders for the following testing year.
We use the Magic Tree House series in our enrichment groups and were looking for ways to go beyond the "in your face" straight forward comprehension questions and to get our students to go deeper. One of the problems we faced with close reads was all the text marking.
Here we are able to take a variety of questions and have our students dig through the text but instead of marking up our novels, they are showing their understanding of finding themes, defending their claims, comparing, and analyzing their reading.
Each one of our Magic Tree House text dependent resources has 10 questions which vary in type and complexity. There is a journal cover page if you want to print all the questions off and create a mini-workbook. Or if you would prefer picking and choosing which questions you have that option.
Our text dependent questions are ink friendly. All black and white. They are really simplistic and clean. We steered away from too many distracting graphics and focused on the content instead.
PLEASE NOTE***This is geared towards a second-third grade classroom but could meet the needs of higher first graders. These are NOT chapter by chapter comprehension questions.
