Description

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, outlines, response to literature prompts, essay prompts, and text-based writing prompts; 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. 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.

Books needed for the bundle:

Opinion- The Perfect Pet by Margie Palatini, Dr. Coo and the Pigeon Protest by Sarah Hampson, Let The Children March by Monica Clark-Robinson, and The Great Kapok Tree by Lynne Cherry

Inform- Shark Lady by Jess Keating, Shaking Things Up by Susan Hood, and Nurse, Soldier, Spy: The Story of Sarah Edmonds by Marissa Moss. I also suggest using Joan Procter, Dragon Doctor by Patricia Valdez, but you can use a similar text instead!

Narrative- 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

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)

*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.*
