Description
This fun ELA independent work packet will generate happiness and boost students’ positivity. The activities are designed to be completed without adult assistance and so are ideal for sub plans, homework, early finishers, and brain breaks. All of the positive activities, from jokes, to riddles, to writing on happy events past, present and future, will put a smile on Middle School students’ faces. The activities will foster self esteem, well-being and gratitude- all while exercising writing skills and critical thinking skills. Students will write a dice roll story that ends happily, pen a limerick, and send a greeting card to someone special. All of the vocabulary activities - the word search, the word cloud, the word scramble - focus on positive words. Banish the gray and let some ELA sunshine reign!
Answers are supplied for the jokes mix and match pages (questions are separated from the jokes' punchlines), the word search and the word scramble. A simple rubric is supplied should you wish to use this resource for marks.
This packet has been especially formatted to make it easy for homework. The answers are in a separate document in the zip file. Prefer to present the material digitally, rather than on paper? The question packet has been made into a ready-to-use Easel Activity, included with your purchase. I've got your back!
