Scrambled Sentences and What's a Verb Review

In this scrambled sentences vocabulary worksheet activity, students will rearrange the sentence so that it makes sense.  Each sentence is broken down into three pieces.  The vocab I am hitting in this reading center activity is, effect, clock, quarter, cause, prepare, description, culture, time, process, and glared.

When students are finished they will then go through each sentence and circle all the verbs they can find.

Sir Readalot Vocabulary game

In this game, students will read a sentence with missing words and then find the correct item that matches what belongs in the space. As students get better and move up levels, strange critters begin to chase after them.  Options to play are, fact and opinion, context clues, drawing conclusions, and 1-4 syllable words.

Smartboard Friendly Clock

This educational website does a great job with it's analog and digital clock.  You can change the clock to real time.  You can roll a dice to get a random time on the clock.  You can actually change the mode and use the clock's hands to demonstrate angles and fractions.  The clock's style and color can also be changed. You can also change the style of the tick marks that go around the clock which makes it easier for students to view, when you are demonstrating different times.  

Smartboard Friendly Elapsed Time Clocks

This website provides great student whiteboard activities for elapsed time.  There are two clocks that are completely changeable so that you can ask students what the elapsed time is.  I use the dice frequently because it provides completely random times.  You can hide one clock  and then give how many hours before or after that specific time and now your students have to either draw the time they calculate it to be and then unhide the clock so students can verify their calculations.  

States of Matter Video: What does it really mean to be a solid, liquid or gas?

In this science video, Veritasium does a fantastic job interviewing the public to see if they know what it actually means to be a solid, liquid or a gas.  It is fun to watch people try to remember from their schooling what the scientific answer is.  This would be a great video to show when introducing 3 of the 4 states of matter to your chemistry or physical science students.

Student Create Shapes on Digital Geoboard

I use this digital geoboard with my 3rd grade students when teaching shapes.  I have students do their best to create, 2d shapes like triangles, right triangles, pentagon, hexagon, octogon, kite, square, rhombus, and rectangles.  When we are done with learning the shapes, students create their own image on the geoboard.  There are many variables that students and teachers can use when creating their shapes like, rubber band color, size of geoboard, add grid, fill in each shape to count area and perimeter, and add text.  Once finished you cna click the share button to gen
