FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON - “Character Traits Graphic Organizer Common Core Language Acquisition”

by James Whitaker
1st - 8th Grade


Materials/Resources Preface:

This graphic organizer is pretty straightforward. Students should focus on one character from literature or film, or even a real life person, and begin to brainstorm specific personality character traits that are relevant to their character. The graphic provides space for 4 characters traits. This is a simple, variation of one of my other sale products (Character Trait Graphic Organizer Text Common Core Bulletin Board). Nevertheless, this graphic can be used as a stepping stone for below level or ESL/ELL students. This varied form only allows for gathering four traits without space to analyze or provide examples.

You can also use the graphic organizer for a basic bulletin board display or illustrate the writing process by coupling the organizer with a more thorough writing piece on literary characters and their dynamic qualities. Don’t forget to have students provide (or you provide for them) a picture of the character or person of focus. Visuals will enhance your bulletin display, of course. Students can also decorate the organizers! Please cut on the dotted lines for a better display presentation.

Again you can use this activity to explore the traits, attributes, or qualities of:

< Literary Characters
< Film Characters
< Entertainers and Idols
< Everyday People
< Family Members

Please feel free to ask any questions—I will definitely respond to all inquiries in a timely fashion. Please, check out my other products and resources. Hopefully they will help strengthen your lessons, help your students learn, and make your life easier. Thank you and enjoy!

Common Core Anchor Standards:
Writing: CCSS.ELA-Literacy.CCRA.W.5 Develop and strengthen writing as needed by planning, revising, editing, rewriting, or trying a new approach.

Vocabulary Acquisition and Use: CCSS.ELA-Literacy.CCRA.L.6 Acquire and use accurately a range of general academic and domain-specific words and phrases sufficient for reading, writing, speaking, and listening at the college and career readiness level; demonstrate independence in gathering vocabulary knowledge when encountering an unknown term important to comprehension or expression

by The Science Vault
7th - 9th Grade


This is a 10 slide powerpoint that introduces the concepts of continental drift and plate tectonics. It includes colorful pictures, powerpoint animations and a link to an online animation of global plate reconstructions.
The slides include a short discussion of the evidence Alfred Wegener used to develop his theory of continental drift, namely:
the geographical fit of continents
fossils match across oceans
rock type and structure match across oceans
ancient glacial features
This powerpoint is meant to be a "starting point" for introducing the topic of continental drift and plate tectonics and gives you a base from which to delve deeper into the topic with your students.
I am offering it free here on Teachers Pay Teachers so that you can see the quality of my work and at the same time, get something that you can use today in your classroom.
You can find the complete powerpoint (67 slides in all) and note-catcher here:

FREE MATH LESSON - “Donavan’s Mathematical Word Problems/CGI Designed”

by Pirate Queen Teaching Treasures
3rd - 5th Grade


Use this cross-curricula product to provide your students with opportunities to build and refine their mathematical problem-solving skills. The fourteen word problems are based on the book, Donavan’s Word Jar, by Mona Lisa De Gross and are CGI designed. Cognitively Guided Instruction allows students to think for themselves by giving them the freedom to solve flexibly and in multiple ways. Students soon learn there is more than one way to arrive at an answer.

If you are not trained in CGI, you can still use these problems with your students.

Numbers have been purposely left out of the problems so that you can differentiate to meet the needs of your students.

Teaching Tips are also included.

Thank you for considering this product.
