Because I have always been surprised at how many high school freshman don’t know the word, today I offer this context clues worksheet on the adjective consecutive.

Now seems like a perfect time to post a Cultural Literacy worksheet on the right of privacy. Did we retain this right, or did it vanish with social media and other digital platforms (like the very blog you’re reading now!).

Kids who struggle to learn need all the help they can get. I work to incorporate into my teaching practice–I have a category of curriculum I simply call “Focus on Learning Methods”–readings that describe the act of learning. If our struggling students can understand the learning process, then they can begin to understand their own struggles with it. From there, students have a real opportunity to learn how they learn, and begin approaching the demands of school with an understanding of how they can meet them.
So, what use for the special education teacher in this situation? Little to none, I would hope–that’s the point of this. The students is autonomous, and the teacher has done his or her job. A pint of ale and a few episodes of “Family Guy,” anyone?
One of the many projects I have going is a unit on learning on cognition. Needless to say, this Intellectual Devotional reading on learning and the comprehension worksheet that accompanies it would form one of the mainstays of such a unit.

One week into the summer break, and I am taking advantage of everything New York City has to offer in this season, including the wonderful Jazzmobile, one of the greatest cultural institutions in our city, which obviously boasts so many of them. If you’re coming into the Five Boroughs from elsewhere, please know this: Jazzmobile concerts are free, held in some of our most beautiful parks, and superlative. If you go, make sure you put a few bucks in the collection bucket. Jazzmobile presents world-class musicians, and to see them in a club like the Village Vanguard or the Blue Note would cost you real money.
OK, now back to the English Language Arts Desk. This week’s Text is a complete lesson plan on adverbs modifying verbs. This lesson begins with one of two do-now exercises (or both if the lesson runs into a second day), the first a Cultural Literacy Worksheet on stereotypes, and the second a parsing sentences worksheet on adverbs. You might find this word bank of adverbs useful as a learning support. The mainstay of the lesson is this scaffolded worksheet on adverbs modifying verbs. Finally, you may find this teacher’s copy of the worksheet helps you in delivering this lesson.
That’s it. I hope you are enjoying your summer.

Here is a short worksheet on the Greek word root helic/o. It means spiral and circular. This is a particularly productive root in vocabulary in mathematics and the life sciences.

There might be a better way than this context clues worksheet on the verb censure (it’s transitive only) to teach the word, and I may have started a draft on a homophone worksheet on censure and censor, which would be more efficient. Stay tuned, because I’ll post such a thing, when and if I write, sooner or later.

Here is a short worksheet on the Greek word root arthr/o, which means joint. Now you know the origin of the word arthritis. This is a word root for students interested in the health care professions, if nobody else.

I use this context clues worksheet on the noun chronology in the first week of school in any social studies class I teach. For reasons I don’t fully understand, we have too many students in my high school who don’t know this fundamental word.
It’s an important word and concept to know and use when discussing just about anything that occurs across a span of time.
