This is a great video that can be used to introduce or review the main ideas and supporting details in a story or paragraph.

This is an activity-based reading log.

My idea behind this type of reading log is threefold.

1. Keep track of the books that students are reading and the time they are reading each day.

2. Practice a skill-based on reading, writing, and science standards as well as a review of previously taught standards to add more practice.

3. To give students an opportunity to interact more with their parents and siblings, through instilling a little more patriotism, awareness of national events and ideas, and learn a little bit of charity and acts of kindness to others.

Students can either label or put the skeleton together in this online activity.  The better they do the higher their score.  They can practice it as man times as they want.

Students will find vocabulary that deals with metamorphosis.  I use this when teaching 3rd-graders about how caterpillars turn into butterflies.

This product gives plenty of practice to elementary students who are working at memorizing their multiplication times tables.

In this 3rd grade math activity students partner up. Each has their own paper. They each roll a dice and put the number in the first cell under roll 1. Next they roll again and put the second number under roll 2. They now create a multiplication equation using the 2 dice. They then create a division equation using the two dice. Finally they fill out the fact family triangle. At the end they add up all of their dice and whichever student has the highest sum takes the win.

In this 3rd Grade multiplication word problems worksheet, students will read 4-word problems, sketch a picture of what they are imagining, and then solve it by creating the equations.

3rd Grade Figurative Language Game.  Students will identify sentences and figurative language as using similes, metaphors, personification, and hyperbole by shooting a cat through burning hoops.

This TEDed video shows just how big the ocean is.  It does a great job at putting the sheer size of the ocean into perspective.

In this reading game, students will jump a character as it runs through an obstacle course.  If the student misses a jump, a text structure reading question will appear.  If the student answers the question correctly he/she will be able to continue.  The question is missed, the character loses a try.  Three tries lost, ends the game. After every mile the speed increases.  The goal is to run 10 miles without missing three questions. Structures asked about are: Sequence, Compare and Contrast, Problem/Solution, Cause/Effect, Description, Chronology/Timeline
