    Have you ever wondered what a book looks like afte Have you ever wondered what a book looks like after I finish using it to create a #mentorsentence unit? 🙈 I just completed the six-week mini-unit for A Rover's Story, which is this year's Global Read Aloud for Middle Grades/Upper Elementary! #GRA23

Will you be participating with your class? It all kicks off on October 2nd. 🤓

In this book, Resilience, or Res for short, is a Mars rover who is determined to live up to his name. 🤖 He was not built to have human emotions. But as he learns new things from the NASA scientists who assemble him, he begins to develop humanlike feelings. I never thought I could feel so much for a robot. I might have even shed a few tears at the end...! 😅 #GRARover

Head to the link in my profile (@ideasbyjivey) to grab this brand new mentor sentence unit for A Rover's Story with six lessons that follow right along with the reading schedule for Global Read Aloud 💲ON SALE💲 for 48 hours! 🤗

    📓Do your students struggle to understand a voca 📓Do your students struggle to understand a vocabulary word that has multiple meanings? 

This is why teaching vocabulary in context is SO important! 🤓

If your students are just "looking up a list," how many of your students pick the first definition and write it down, then move on to the next word? 📝

Or better yet… raise your hand if you have one of *those* students who finds the SHORTEST definition of the word to write! 🙋‍♀️

💡Come check out the post at the link in my profile (@ideasbyjivey) where I share some research-based tips for teaching vocabulary.
