This basic book review format is colourful and engaging for the students, but generic enough to be used by many grades, over many years! In my Distance Learning classroom, we have used these slides together in large groups for our class novels (teacher read aloud) as well as independently. Reading logs help students keep track of days/pages read, and the graphic organizers make 'the dreaded book report' a whole lot of fun! Whether your student is reading A Boy Named Bat or The Cat in the Hat, these slides will be sure to get them thinking, talking and writing about their books! Only $2.50!

Shifted to online learning? Break that ice with a fun digital scavenger hunt for your class. All you need to do is copy and open the file, and present your tab to the students. They will LOVE running from room to room to find treasures and this ALWAYS gets the students turning on their cameras and sharing! My junior class absolutely loves these! 16 google slides, 16 different timers with music, and lots of fun to start the online return. Teacher reads the little poem/clue, then clicks the timer. Sip your coffee or tea (while it's still warm!) and let the games begin!
