The Principal's New Clothes - Reader's Theater for the Entire Class!
This reader's theater is for the entire class! You will need at least 11 students but more is always better. This ties into my other twisted fairy tales except that it was written to do as a class. I split my class into two groups and both groups practice. When we perform we discuss what things we liked about each group. I use this to introduce the small group reader's theaters I have them do the rest of the year. I have also come back to the script at the end of the year to perform in front of

If I had $100... Creative Writing Prompt
Lovely Lauren says,
You've got to grab this great writing prompt for the 100th day of school! To celebrate all things 100, I thought giving your students $100 dollars would suffice! :)
Brainstorm with children what they would do with $100 dollars and just see what kind of creative responses you get!
Your kids will have to chance to have their face on a $100 bill! They could draw themselves, or you can take a picture of them and attach it for some added pizzaz!

Teach Characterization with Video Clips (Disney, Pixar, etc.)
By middle school, students should begin to develop skills in analyzing author craft. One of the easiest ways to introduce kids to the "craft moves" an author makes is through teaching characterization. The reality is that kids already understand this literary term on some level because they unconsciously pick up on all of the clues that an author or a text (be it book, movie, music video, or tv show) provides the audience. We inherently form judgements about characters as we engage with a text.T

These labs cover area of a parallelogram, percent models, circle graphs, distance between two points, coordinate graphing, parallel lines, systems of equations, graphing, data collection, LCMs, and the Pythagorean Theorem.
