A few days away, marks the Fall season.  It's time to take a look at some fun resource to keep your students engaged.

Fall templates include the following poetry forms: ABC Poem, Acrostic, Cinquain, Concrete, Couplet, Diamante, Free Verse, Haiku and Quatrain Poetry. A student-friendly rubric is also included.



Fall Math Games  You'll find 5 math games with a fall theme.  They range from basic operations games to creating glyphs. A description for each one is found below:

1) BUILD A SCARECROW MULTIPLICATION CHALLENGE: Students will generate products and develop a glyph based on the products generated.
2) BUILD A SCARECROW ADDITION CHALLENGE : Students will generate sums and develop a glyph based on the sums generated.

Fall Word Work - Silly Sentences for Fluent Readers Silly sentences have always been a fun way to explore sentence building and recognizing parts of speech. Students in grades 3 through 6 will have the opportunity to use subject, verb and complement cards to build and simplify silly sentences using a Fall theme.
