It may be a useful tool for your planning and pairing of students for various activities •Help your children to reflect on, review, plan and achieve their targets and dreams with this handy pack of goal setting resources! The activity and display materials are perfect for use at the start of a new term and on an ongoing basis throughout the school year. •This practice of self-evaluation is considered one of the key benefits of Goal Setting as a strategy, in that it encourages students to provide evidence they believe demonstrates they have achieved their goals, while recognising the areas they need to improve in. •Goal Setting is one of the 1 High Impact Teaching Strategies (HITS) that emerged from thousands of studies around the world into teaching methodology. •The key to this strategy is to set goals and provide success criteria that help students commit to the learning, and provide the appropriate mix of success and challenge. •By explaining the connections between learning goals, learning activities and assessment tasks, teachers demonstrate the purpose of classroom tasks, making the learning visible to students. This helps students become self-motivated and use learning goals to monitor and progress their learning #Behaviourmanagement #reliefteachingsurvivalkit #reliefteachingideas #relief teachingbundle #substituteteacherideas #backtoschool #bestresourceever #subtub #substituteteacher #reliefteacher #classroomorganisation #spelling #term3 This is for use by one teacher in one classroom.

Descriptive Writing | Fun /Quirky Picture Prompts | Distance Learning I set 1

These engaging, visual writing prompts with pictures will get even your most reluctant writer writing! These fun writing prompts are no prep, just print and go. -These images are scaffolded by using the students senses to add interest to their writing Sensory details include sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste. -Writers employ the five senses to engage a reader’s interest. If you want your writing to jump off the page, then bring your reader into the world you are creating. -When describing a past event, try and remember what you saw, heard, touched, smelled, and tasted, then incorporate that into your writing. -Sensory details are used in any great story, literary or not. Think about your favourite movie or video game. What types of sounds and images are used? What do your favorite characters taste, smell, and touch? -Without sensory details, stories would fail to come to life. -When sensory details are used, your readers can personally experience whatever you’re trying to describe, reminding them of their own experiences, giving your writing a universal feel. A universal quality is conveyed when the writer can personally connect with the readers. -Another note about sensory details: there is no one sense that’s more important than another. It all depends on the scene you’re trying to create. However, imagery, the sight sense, is a common feature in vivid writing. -These are perfect for Writer’s Workshop, Work on Writing, Writing Centers, Substitute Teachers, and Fast Finishers. -These quirky picture prompts are a great way to let the kiddos choose what they want to write about, while also helping to spark their imaginations! -They are perfect for those “I don’t know what to write about!” kiddos. They are also great for Work on Writing during your Daily 5 time, writing centers, fast finishers, writing homework, or leaving for a substitute teacher!

If the player has enough ones in their turn they can trade using ones on the board that may already be in play. •In the hundreds game, the winner is the first to trade to 100.
