Here’s another quick chart to remind students what they should always do when quoting evidence. I see so many students choosing quotes that aren’t really that strong or using entire paragraphs as evidence! If we don’t want students to do this then we need to explicitly tell them and show them what to do instead with our own writing samples#teacherswhowrite #iteachwriting #iteachenglish #englishteachers #teachersfollowteachers #writingworkshop #writersworkshop #writingchart #secondaryela #iteach8th #iteachmiddleschoolenglish #iteach8
Have you ever tried Six-Word Memoirs? They are a great way to wrap-up the school year and review key concepts! Have students brainstorm six-word memoirs about your class this year and share!!

I have been an advocate for @wholebrainteaching for years, and am super proud to have a certification in the method! My #thirdgradescholars have truly embraced #mirrorwords and are now able to come up with their own #gestures and #brainies for their unit vocabulary! And yes, they are in the midst of another incredible #rootedinreading unit! #eighthgradeteacher #thirdgradeteacher #fourthgradeteacher #fifthgradeteacher #sixthgradeteacher #seventhgradeteacher #englishteacher #teachersofinstagram #teachersofig #instagoodteachers #teachersfollowteachers #elateacher #iteachtoo #iteachelementary #iteachmiddle #iteachmiddleschool #iteachelementaryenglish #iteachmiddleschoolenglish #elementaryenglishteacher #middleschoolenglishteacher #middleschoolenglish #teachfromtheheart #igteacher #igteachers #newarkboyschorusschool

We made Mother’s Day sugar scrubs today in all my ELA classes. It was chaotic and crazy and I said, “Do not eat it!” and “Please sit down!” 52,327,916 times, but it was fun to see them just be kids. I don’t have a picture of a final product because #realteacherlife, but I’m hoping for a 50% success rate of them actually going home to some students’ moms because I dream big . Definitely swipe to see the aftermath ♀️
Adjectives and adverbs... tricky little guys. Modifiers are fun, and they can add a splash to writing. Still, students must understand when to use an adjective and when to use an adverb. This presentation and accompanying activities will work with your writing or grammar unit.

Flashback Monday? Haha... well I’m making that a thing today. This was the first year in my current word and I loved this space. I didn’t do these bulletin boards this year, because the novelty had worn off but seeing this makes me think I might do it again next year . Famous first lines from @literacyforbigkids
I’m in love with these digital covers for the 2018-2019 school year. Students write about their school year with a specific audience: themselves in ten years. I always include multiple covers and note pages for student personalization. The link for this year’s activity is in my profile! #endoftheschoolyear #writinglesson #iteach678 #iteachmiddleschoolenglish #languageartsteacher #middleschoolteacher #teachergram #secondaryela #instagoodteachers #middleschoolenglish
