The monthly morning work is part of the following BUNDLES:
- 5th Grade ELA Morning Work
- 5th Grade ELA Morning Work + Weekly Assessment

- 5th Grade ELA + Math Morning Work + Weekly Assessments
This set contains 5 weeks of September-Themed morning work for the month of September. The morning work is focused on ELA 5th Grade Common Core Standards. Each day has a thematic structure to cover those Language Standards as well as enhance Vocabulary and Comprehension skills.
Meaningful Monday: Monday is focused on making meaning. Tasks will focus on synonyms, antonyms, vocabulary words, context clues, and making meaning in a short amount of text. Some tasks may require students to make meaning in the text (inference, message, adages, proverbs, etc) or build vocabulary skills.
Text Structure Tuesday: Tuesdays will have a paragraph that requires students to identify the text structure, signal words, and a question or two related to main idea, author's perspective, or vocabulary.
Wordy Wednesday: Wednesday is all about working with words. Tasks include working with shades of meaning, homophones, or a short writing task using pictures or a word bank.
Throwback Thursday: Thursday is all about grammar usage and conventions.
Figurative Friday: Figurative Friday tasks include working with various types of figurative language including similes, metaphors, idioms, and more!
I created this resource after seeing success with the Math version in my classroom that you can find HERE: 5th Grade Math Morning Work!
