How to Ask Questions - Question Words for Reading and Writing Comprehension K-1
HOW TO ASK QUESTIONS - Kindergarten and First GradeThis is a fun, age-appropriate set of materials that can be used to teach young children how to ask good questions (who, where, when, what, why, and how) when they are reading and writing.I created these materials after realizing that simply saying and posting the question words wasn't effective for our students just learning to read.

The Odyssey / O Brother Where Art Thou Movie Activities, Lyric Analysis, CCSS
The movie O Brother Where Art Thou is the perfect pairing to add fun and depth of learning to The Odyssey! These activities foster comparison skills as students analyze the similarities and differences between the two mediums. As a bonus, I've included two song-lyric analysis activities in which students apply Odysseus' travels to the lyrics from two different tunes that make an appearance, including "I Am A Man of Constant Sorrow"! I find this adds just a splash of extra fun! ♪INCLUDES: ★2 page
