Writing Style Digital Unit for Struggling Students: Google Slides, PowerPoint

Nearly 400 slides of interactive content and 10 multi-day, jumbo lessons organized to allow students to explore different elements of striking tone, using powerful word choice, structuring sentences, and extending responses in a powerful, memorable way. Every presentation in this bundle has been redone and is the result of a collaborative effort between a secondary English teacher and a special education English teacher. Each presentation is meant to allow for differentiation, collaboration (when needed), teacher instruction, and student application.

These presentations are designed to be high interest and have varied activities. There are movie clips, creative writing assignments, interesting themes, group work, and more. Because of the visual nature of these presentations, combined with the flexibility afforded with differentiation, printing, editing, and scaffolding, these materials are perfect for special education, struggling students, or ELL populations that require materials that engage different, unique learning styles.
