Anchor Charts

Over the years, I have created dozens of anchor charts in my classroom. I am a huge proponent of creating anchor charts with my students, and I strongly believe that the perfect anchor chart isn't always pretty. The posts below feature many of my anchor charts.

Using pictures to teach literacy skills never fail

Using pictures to teach literacy skills never fails! It’s super engaging, relevant, and incorporates so many different ways to practice a skill. Start with making inferences and literal observations based on the photo, complete a skill-based task relating to the picture, and then apply the skill to a reading passage!

Drop a comment below if you’d like the link to the bundle which includes reading skills, parts of speech, and figurative language practice. ❤️

*Not to be confused with using pictures as a strategy to predict words in text. 😉

I’m SUPER short on time, so I try to incorporate six minute STEM challenges once a month during morning meeting activities. 🥰

Today’s task was super open-ended. They had to work together to create something relating to winter. I gave each group different manipualtives to use and off they went! The groups were hyper-focused the entire time and then had to do a quick presentation to the class about their creation when time was up! 👏

I love to incorporate these challenge problems (use Nrich and Openmiddle to get started) because they teach my students so much more than how to solve a math problem. They learn important lessons in teamwork, persistence, resiliency, and growth mindset. We talk about strategies for tackling difficult problems and the importance of not giving up when things get hard.

ALL kids need to feel and learn to embrace challenge. Oftentimes, kids I see have rarely faced an academic challenge. Things have just come easy to them, so when it doesn’t, they can lack strategies that will help them. In fact, they will often give up before they even get started.

I tell them it’s my job to make sure I’m helping them stretch and grow their brain by giving them challenges. They don’t love it at first, but they eventually do! 🤗

Those Dollar Spot succulents in planters that look like composition notebooks will never get old, though. 😉 I’m not usually big on fancy classroom decor, so books have become one of my favorite elements of “purposeful decor” in my classroom. Do you see any of your favorite chapter books here? 🤗

Spoiler alert: They WERE lost, they WERE using the GPS to try to figure out where they were, and they WERE NOT in agreement on which way to go. 😂😂

This is one of my favorite pictures to pull out, and I love it even more when my students bring in their own for us to use!
