    Must Have Monday and a Yummy Recipe!

    Hi friends! I am here to share my Must-Have for my SUMMER to-do list on Sabra‘s linky. How many of you keep physical to-do lists for some things, but then you have all these mental lists in your head that you can never keep up with?? THAT would be me. It’s totally dumb. I KNOW I can’t remember it all, but I still don’t write it all down because I think I WILL remember it this time. So my goal is to be better about getting my ideas and lists down on ACTUAL lists. So I created these cuties to help me, and I’m sharing them with you in hopes it might help you, too!

    And aren’t the backgrounds adorable? Credit to my cutest BBB Amanda at Collaboration Cuties for creating them!! :o) I couldn’t make just one… some weeks I feel like polka dots, some weeks I feel like big chevron, some weeks just a little! 😛 Thanks in advance for leaving feedback if you download!

    I wanted to also link up with Christy to share a yummy recipe that I copied imitated from a local restaurant.

    Hot Chicken Salad Sandwich with Red Pepper Jelly
    2 chicken breasts
    lemon pepper seasoning
    mayonnaise
    diced celery
    sourdough bread
    provolone cheese
    red pepper jelly

    I cube the chicken breast and saute it with some lemon pepper seasoning for taste. (Sorry, no real measurements here…) Once it’s cooked and cooled, I shred the chicken and mix it with the diced celery, then add mayonnaise until all of the chicken is coated (again, sorry no measurements!). I scoop some of the chicken salad out on one slice of sourdough bread and put a slice of provolone cheese on top of the chicken salad, then heat both sides of the sandwich in the toaster oven until the cheese is melted. I add red pepper jelly to the other slice and…. YUM! It really is super good, and super easy!

    Oh, and don’t forget! One more day!!!!!! And if you’ve already entered, you can share about the giveaway EVERY day, so feel free to share again if you already have! :o)

    😍Teachers LOVE using the paired texts I've written! 📖With original passages (differentiated for two reading levels) and multiple-choice & constructed response questions that require students to go back into the text for the answers (not basic-level comprehension), you are able to tackle rigorous reading standards while integrating social studies and science content into ELA to maximize much-needed time!Plus, bonus!! Students actually enjoy the passages' topics (no yawns through lessons)! 🚫😴Check out this set for Westward Expansion here! 👉https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Paired-Texts-Print-Digital-Westward-Expansion-Grades-4-6-1811055 ...

    When do YOU teach grammar? 🤓 📓If you're usi When do YOU teach grammar? 🤓

📓If you're using the #mentorsentences routine, I suggest beginning your writing time with it! You want grammar and language to be directly connected to their writing.

This also helps get students into a writing frame of mind, and often gives them a purpose for writing that day! ✏️

    🔍Research has proven that #vocabulary words mus 🔍Research has proven that #vocabulary words must be presented in context for proper comprehension.

📖That means... throw out the word lists for kids to look up in a dictionary and memorize the definition!!!

📚Picture books are vital – yes, even in the upper grades – to allow students to use the images to help with context and infer the meaning of words. One way to present vocabulary words effectively is to teach through texts you are already using for other lessons!

    🤔 So what's so special about using #mentorsente 🤔 So what's so special about using #mentorsentences instead of lectures and worksheets?

💡Engagement in the daily class discussions around language is what will give many students a “lightbulb moment” and help those skills transfer to writing. 

Holding these high-level conversations are when the students are going to learn the MOST. 🥳
