What a historic time we are living in. Definitely a moment that will be remembered in history. Since it is such a significant time, wouldn't it be amazing if your students could capture their thoughts, feelings, activities, and way of life during this period, and have something they can look back on and share with others? This activity allows students to do just that!

I see all these precious elementary school teachers making super creative postcards to keep in touch with their students. And I am all like, "Awwww. That's soooooo cute. I should do that!"

And then I laugh at myself and put it in the π™π™π™žπ™£π™œπ™¨ 𝙄 π™Žπ™π™€π™ͺ𝙑𝙙 π˜Ώπ™€ 𝘽π™ͺ𝙩 π™‰π™šπ™«π™šπ™§ π™’π™žπ™‘π™‘ Column.

I still want to keep in touch, touch base with my students, and let them know I am thinking about them. I just want to make it a little more low maintenance for this season of my life.

So, I made this great email template! I just change out the stuff highlighted in yellow and I'm good to go! Since I teach middle school, all of my students have an email and check in regularly so I know they will get it.

I know you want to connect with your students, give them a voice in challenging times, and still keep them engaged in learning. This weekly reflection sheet is the tool to do just that.

  • 8 prompts: Guide students in the reflection process. The prompts encourage analytical thought and detailed writing.

  • Google Forms: Drop it right into their Google Classroom for easy access. It is also editable so you can add questions that are related to your classroom and activities.

  • PDF Version: Prefer or need paper and pencil? No worries! A formatted PDF version is also included

  • Instructions and Link: Check out the instruction page for the link to the form and how to use it.

This form will help you stay connected, give your students a chance to write and express themselves, and provides you the opportunity to continue to build relationships with your students.

 

This is a quick and easy way to help you and your students make independent reading easy to track and meaningful.

What's In the Reading Log:

Part One: The Basics. Name, what did they read, and for how long.

Part Two: Digging Deeper. Students answer what part of the plot diagram they are in and how they know. In addition, each day has a different question that requires students to analyze character's thoughts, feelings, and actions. For example, one question states, "If you could give the main character one piece of advice, what would it be?"

Part three: Standards Based Questions. Two questions based off the Power Standards for middle school (RL 1, 2, 3, 4, 6)

Since it is Google Forms, this is completely edible to fit your needs!

You will receive a PDF download that has the links to all 5 of the forms.
