Poetry? Scavenger hunts? Use this lesson to teach your students about the R-controlled vowels that say “er” using both! Your students will be reading those pesky er/ir/ur words in no time!

Students will learn a new spelling rule with a super silly name: the FLOSS rule! Explore double-letter one-syllable words using this fun lesson plan.

Shape up your students' understanding of geometrical attributes with this hands-on math lesson. Students will gain a better understanding of how to describe a shape by the number of edges and vertices it has, rather than by its name.

Students will love practicing their early reading skills as they create their very own classroom book using common sight words! This can be used as a stand-alone or support lesson for the My First Book lesson plan.
