Synopsis

The author's second book combines English Language Arts Standards with fun in the classroom! Acknowledging the demands placed on today's teachers, the author has made this book extremely user-friendly. All 30 projects and activities, explained in the introduction, are ready for immediate use in the classroom. Student projects and activities include acting out skits, completing smartphone-styled worksheets and graphic organizers, flipping coins, rolling dice, and more! This book is a creative resource that keeps fun in the classroom while supporting skill development of English Language Arts Standards. At around 30 cents per project/activity, these are great activities at a great value!

The book is comprised of 30 projects and activities that are standards-based and/or support skill development of the English Language Arts Standards as determined by the Common Core State Standards Initiative. Many of these projects and activities may be used throughout the year as they are developing skills that students should continually practice and enhance. A special bonus section includes an activity from the author's first book, a classroom management plan, and a daily theme activity that adds fun and excitement to the classroom.
