This product is one that I see myself continuously updating and adding new material. hope you enjoy and I would love to hear your feedback about this product! I am always open to ways I can improve my products:)

How to use the Checklists:
The checklists are used to help students understand what is expected of them as they move through the writing process. In addition, the checklist requires them to reflect on themselves as a writer. In my classroom, I introduce the checklist shortly after we have started the unit so they can monitor themselves as we go along. As we move towards publishing our final draft, the “I’m done” declarations dwindle. I have found the checklist reiterates specific things students can work on as a writer. Furthermore, they are required to consult one another through peer editing and revising.

The Rubrics
Reading and Writing grades are not so quick and easy anymore. Although I have the abstract mind of a Language Arts Teacher, when it comes time for grades and assessments- the “measurement” of my student’s progress can be a bit gray and I have struggled with giving my students’ a fair grade. The Writing rubrics included in this product are aligned to the checklists and allow you as the teacher to attach a grade to their final writing piece in an objective manner.

The Language Arts Short Response Rubric is a new one I am trying out this year and am very excited about!!! No longer are our assessments simply multiple choice-you got it or you don’t, a quick and easy grade. Questions and tasks are open-ended, which requires students’ to think more critically. In many standardized district or state assessments, students are required to respond to a task in an essay form AND ALSO a short response. As a teacher, assigning grades isn’t so easy anymore. I have often wondered how my classroom assessments are aligning to the district and state assessments as well as the standards overall. Alas, this product was born.

I don’t know about your students, but when my kiddos get a short response it is…definitely short!! They either answer in 2-3 words or a sentence or two that may or may not answer the question.  No more! This rubric will help you get students in the habit of answering short responses in complete sentences and require them to efficiently and quickly reflect on their work. Because after all, it is a SHORT response I use these at least once a week with a question about the current text or Read Aloud we are using in the classroom. They respond in their Reading Response Journal (or Reading Notebook). An added bonus is that throughout the year you can watch your students grow and become not only better readers, but also better writers

The Charts
Charts, charts, charts-I Love Charts. The problem is that we run out of wall space in our classrooms. I have found that students are sometimes more likely to use charts when they are at their fingertips- in their notebooks. I try to create the charts that they can continually refer to in their Reading and Writing work into half sheet versions they can simply glue into their notebooks. This product includes charts students can use in both Reading and Writing as well as a sample of charts found in the product My Opinion Matters!

About this Product:

This product is a fun activity for students after they finish a book. I don’t know about you, but I always cringe when I see my students finish the last page of a book, immediately close it, announce they are done, and put it back on the shelf. I am constantly looking for ways to get them to linger with their books just a little bit longer…

Besides just writing a response or taking a Reading Counts quiz, it is nice to mix it up with fun stuff when they finish. Hence, the creation of this product. If you are anything like me, you enjoy social media. Not just any social media, but specifically Instagram! I am a fan and sometimes slightly addicted. What I love about Instagram is that you can share your experiences with others instantly. Moments or experiences you might not normally share with people, but Instagram makes it possible to share it with more people outside of your usual social circle. With this activity, your students can share their reading experience and recommend books to their classmates in a fun and social way.

How to Use this Product

Anyway you choose! See the Guide Sheet for suggestions. The small circle at the top is a place to draw a picture of themselves. The big picture area, students draw a picture of the cover of the book. Below the picture, they can recommend/tag the book to 3 of their friends. The student who created the Bookagram can make comments about the book as well. Next to the heart, those same 3 students can “like” the book OR others in your classroom who might have read the book can “like” the post by leaving their name. Having an area to display students’ Bookagrams is a nice way to build community in your classroom and build community with your readers!

Please note there are 3 different versions , based on your student needs. One also includes a place for students to rate the book. As always, please let me know if you have any questions about the product. :) Jessica@theliteracyloft.com

Happy Reading!

Bookagram - Book Recommendation/Reading Response

Writing Charts

$2.00

These charts are for students’ use in their writing notebooks, but also for teachers! At the beginning of the year, one of the most important things we can do for our students is teach them how to get ideas for their own personal narratives. This will lead to better writing in other genres. More importantly, this will get students excited about writing! I like to focus on these key points at the beginning of the year:

Volume, Stamina, & Confidence

This chart is a simple tool students can glue into their notebook as a reminder of ways they can generate ideas for entries, drafts, or stories. Also, teachers can use these as teaching points for mini lessons at the beginning of the year. I would strongly advise teachers to teach students HOW to use this tool & model ways to get ideas, before giving to students. I have included 4 copies:

One half-page (so 2 on a page) for students with my examples
One half-page (so 2 on a page) for students with a blank t-chart
One full page with a blank t-chart
One cute colorful one which could be displayed in the writing center or however you choose.

By giving students a resource to get ideas, you may be less likely to hear, “I don’t have anything to write about…”
And when you do, you have a simple response:

“Let’s take a look at some ways writers get ideas…”

This chart could also be displayed in the classroom for students in the writing center. I would love to hear how this works for you! I appreciate any feedback

Writing Process Signs

$2.00

These writing process signs will help you and your students identify the steps/parts of the writing process as well as keep track of where they are when working on a project and what to do next! Implementing a routine at the beginning of the year will help students be successful as writers throughout the year as well as in the rest of their writing life. These Writing Process Signs come in 3 different designs and patterns (navy & white quarter foil, navy & white stripes, teal & white chevron) If you like the signs, but would like to see them in different colors, please contact me! There are also two “title” posters. {The Writer’s Process and A Writer’s Thinking}

I suggest printing and laminating each of the signs. You may or may not want to use each of the signs. There are slight variations on the steps in the writing process, as a general rule of thumb. Printing on card stock would allow these signs to be more durable, but is not necessary! You could even print and slip into sheet protectors. If you do not have access to a color printer (or find that it is too expensive) simply print in gray-scale.

The signs could be used in several ways...
Writing Center- put signs in sheet protectors and then attach on a binder ring and have students use as a reference.

Bulletin Board- Display in a row above or on a bulletin board or even in the writing center as a reminder of the steps writers go through during the writing process.

Writers’ Tracking System- Use as a way to track your young writers’ status in the writing process. You could do this by connecting the signs using binder rings. Then, hang on a bulletin board and use clothespins with your students’ names or numbers to track where they are in the writing process.

Research Writing Unit Notebook Charts

$6.00

This resource was a requested product to support a Research Writing Unit for 5th Grade as well as supplement Argument-Based Writing and MLA Format. The printable pages are created 2 on a page so that they can be glued inside your students' writing notebooks. Writing Notebook Charts are a tool I use to provide students strategies at their fingertips.

Why Writing Notebook Anchor Charts?
Wall space has always been an issue for teachers and it would be impossible to display every chart you have ever used with your students on the walls all year round. It would also not look very pretty! By giving students' the anchor charts to glue in their notebooks, the notebook becomes a tool for their learning. Not only does it hold their ideas and entries, but it is also a lifelong tool for writing.

The following charts are included:
*Using Timelines in Writing/Research
*Primary vs. Secondary Sources
*Point of View 1st, 2nd, 3rd Person
*Point of View 1st, 2nd, 3rd Person {Blank for students to try on their own}
*Mission Statement
*Writing a Thesis Statement
*Consider the Source! (Evaluating Source Credibility)
*MLA Format
*Creating a Bibliography Page {Book/Website}
*Creating a Bibliography Page {Newspaper/Magazine}
*Rebuttal, Response, & Counterclaims
*Consider Your Audience
*Language & Tone to Validate Your Argument
*Using Quotations from a Text {for a Literary Response}
*Citing the Text MLA Style
*Quoting or Paraphrasing the Text

As stated above, the charts were created for a custom order requested by a 5th Grade teacher. Some of the charts will be added to My Opinion Matters! {An Opinion Writing Unit} and Reader’s Notebook Anchor Charts.
