    Everything But The Books provides you with just that for all of ELA – you’ll get the standards-aligned integrated lesson plans, activities, checklists, rubrics, additional readings (poem, short story, and folktales), outlines, response to literature prompt, fictional narrative quickwrites and prompts, and a text-based narrative writing prompt; and all you need to get your hands on are the mentor texts!

    Using one mentor text in as many subjects and for as many skills as possible helps you maximize your time. This unit uses three mentor texts which you’ll need in order to use these lessons: The Remember Balloons by Jessie Oliveros, The Chicken-Chasing Queen of Lamar County by Janice N. Harrington, and Martina the Beautiful Cockroach by Carmen Agra Deedy. Don’t own these books, or can’t buy them? Check your libraries and search for online read-alouds of the text!

    There are complete writing, reading, and mentor sentence lesson plans included which are perfect for 4th and 5th grade!

    Although these were designed to be done with direct instruction, I have included Google Slides and Forms to the lessons for distance learning and 1:1 activities.

    Not familiar with mentor sentences? Read all about them here!

    *****************************************************************************

    WHAT’S INCLUDED?

    Check out the preview for an extensive look at the resource!

    There are 30 lesson plans with core anchor standards, objectives, and actions along with printable activities, posters, additional readings (poem, short story, and folktales), samples, and checklists when appropriate.

    Many of the lessons have reading AND writing standards covered, so you can use them during any point of your ELA block. I have provided a suggested sequence that completes the unit within 3 weeks.

    **Depending on the ELA time allowed in your schedule, this may take more than three weeks to complete!**

    *****************************************************************************

    HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT FROM JIVEY’S OTHER RESOURCES?

    My other resources do not provide explicit sequenced weekly lesson plans so that you can move in and out of each unit as you need and go in any order you’d like. This unit has explicit lesson plans along with paired texts; mentor text activities; response to literature; mentor sentences; writing organizers, prompts, and samples; as well as text-based writing prompts and samples.

    These sets will NOT use any of the books or articles previously used in other resources!

    If you’d like reading activities without the lesson plans so you can use them freely throughout the year, check these links:

    • Better Than Basal (reading organizers and activities and writing prompts for mentor texts)
    • Paired Texts (paired articles with TDQs and constructed response prompts)

    *****************************************************************************

    WANT THE BUNDLE?

    Purchase the bundle to get this NARRATIVE unit with the OPINION unit and INFORM unit.

    *****************************************************************************

    Please remember, this purchase is for the use of one teacher. It is not intended to be shared. Please use the ‘additional license’ purchase if more than one teacher will be using it. Thank you!

    *The mentor sentence lessons I have created are adapted from the ideas of Jeff Anderson. These lessons were born from the routine that worked well in my classroom, and the demos and examples I present are variations of Jeff Anderson’s methods. This is not the only way to “do” mentor sentences in your classroom.*

    I shared my TPT story with you back in April... (if you missed it, you can check it out here: ckarchive.com/b/4zuvheh5z24kp)As promised, the next big celebration update has happened!! FIVE brand new units have been added to the Yearlong Mentor Text Curriculum Bundle: Volume 2 for Grades 3-5! www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Yearlong-Mentor-Text-Curriculum-Bundle-Volume-2-for-Grades-3-... (This is the large $99 bundle that covers the entire year with mentor sentences, interactive activities, reading and writing, and vocabulary.)If you own the large bundle, whether it's through TPT, my website shop, or through a course purchase, you will get these FIVE NEW UNITS (valued at $18.75) FOR FREE!! Just re-download your purchase!📔School's First Day of School by Adam Rex📘Our Table by Peter H. Reynolds📗The Widow's Broom by Chris Van Allsburg📙Sofia Valdez, Future Prez by Andrea Beaty📕Vulture Verses by Diane LangI am creating these units to strategically align with the large bundles- you'll find the books chosen in volume 2 cover language skills that didn't have lessons previously, and can also be paired nicely with books included in the original bundle. For example, use Vulture Verses with Animals Nobody Loves!Just as a reminder, YES! I plan on doing the same thing for all of the other yearlong volumes, so don't be upset if you own another volume, or another grade! (And remember, Volume 1 already has its bonuses added!!) I am going in order of when I released them, and as you can imagine, it takes some time to create so many brand new units. 😉If you DON'T OWN the Volume 2 Yearlong Bundle and still want these five amazing book units, you can get them now ON SALE for just $3 each for the next 48 hours! www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Ideas-By-Jivey/Order:Most-Recent#seller_details_tabsThank you again for all your support and feedback over the last decade!

    Enough is enough. I’m sick over this. I’m sick Enough is enough. I’m sick over this. I’m sick OF this. I’m tired of children’s and teachers’ lives being lower on the list than the right to bear arms. Sending love to all my Texas teachers and families. Comments are turned off and yes, removed, because this is NOT an argument. Go to someone else’s post to do that. This is the 30th school shooting this year. This doesn’t happen in other countries, yet there is still plenty of evil there. I’m done.

    When I began creating #mentorsentence resources to When I began creating #mentorsentence resources to list in my TpT store over ten years ago, it was because of the huge shift I’d seen in my own students implementing the game-changing routine. I LOVE to hear other teachers have the same results! 🥰 #fabulousfeedback #ideasbyjivey #teachersfollowteachers #teachersofinstagram #teachersofig #teachertribe #iteach345 #mentorsentences
    Can students think critically about grammar!? YES Can students think critically about grammar!?

YES THEY CAN!

I know higher order thinking skills (HOTS) are generally not associated with grammar, but give it a chance… you’re going to see a HUGE shift in writing abilities and language understanding if you do!
