    This Pop Culture Bundle for Middle School will make your students WANT to work and stay on task as they read about high-interest trending topics among teens.

    Packed with engaging activities, these ready-to-use sets are ready for your sub tub, and designed to ease the burden of substitute teacher planning while keeping students engaged and motivated. Use them any time you don't feel like lesson planning!

    You'll get stand-alone resources that are designed to offer a print-and-go sub-plan solution for ELA teachers who don't have time to prep their lessons. These lesson sets will definitely engage even the most reluctant readers, while challenging your more advanced ones.

    Students read an original pop culture article and you get lessons that include both reading comprehension and writing. Two fun puzzles are also included, as well as a design page that allows students to get creative and offers differentiation. There's a little bit of everything!

    HOW TO USE THESE SETS...

    Students can complete all six worksheets of each set as part of a sub packet, but if you don't see them for a full block then assign only one page each day you're out (you'll get even more bang for your buck!) This packet has so many uses beyond sub work - use it any time of year for a no-prep, yet FUN learning activity that kids will enjoy doing! All answer keys are included!

    The estimated Lexile measure of these sets range from 900 to 1100.


    Game & Puzzle Activity Packet

    With this activity packet, your students will be on task and motivated while challenging themselves with 25 fun and challenging games and puzzles!

    This resource requires NO PREP - simply print and staple each packet or use the activities separately. Either way, it's guaranteed to keep your kiddos busy and engaged. I often like to challenge the class with an activity from the pack and offer a small reward to whoever solves the puzzle first! Or send it home with students over winter or spring breaks! So fun!

    Two cover options are included- color and black & white.

    What's included in the Game & Puzzle Activity Packet:

    • 12 Mazes - all on the difficult side with solutions
    • 2 Challenging Word Searches -each with 25 words with answer keys
    • 4 Word Escape Puzzles - 4 levels of increasing difficulty and answer keys (based off the popular app!)
    • 3 Sudoku with solutions

    • 1 Word Builder Activity

    Stay strong teachers...you need a resource like this to make it to the finish line :)

    ► I made these creative activities because I needed fun independent work that I could use in my classroom that I knew students would actually LIKE doing!

    ► Simply print and go! These packets can be used in a multitude of ways! Keep them on hand to use later!

    ►There is truly no preparation needed, which is why these sets are perfect to leave for:

    • fun lessons
    • early finishers
    • after testing
