❤Like this post if you’ve read this amazing book! ⠀⁣ ⠀⁣ The Day War Came is a poetic story about a young girl whose life is completely engulfed by war. The heartbreaking story follows the narrator as she is forced to flee her war-torn homeland as a refugee. Inspired by true events, this book shows the power of kindness and the hope it can bring in the wake of the devastation of war. ⠀⁣ ⠀⁣ If you’re interested in adding compelling stories about immigrant and refugee experiences to your classroom library, click the link in bio to see 19 inspiring children’s books. ⠀⁣ ⠀⁣ #truestory #readingtime #readingislife #iteachreading #readingteacher #childrensbooks #bookrecommendation #kidsbooks #bookstagram #bookshelf #nonfiction #booksforkids #amazonfind #booklover #librarian #librarianlife #librariansofinstagram #iteachela #reading ⠀⁣ ⠀

If you want to make learning about the Constitution relevant and meaningful for your students, create a class preamble! ⠀⁣ ⠀⁣ Creating a preamble is a great way to explain the purpose and reasoning behind the classroom rules. It will also give students a sense of ownership over the classroom policies they follow each day.⠀⁣ ⠀⁣ #ushistory #constitutionday #teachersfollowteachers #iteachhistory #historyteacher #socialstudies #iteach456 #iteach4th #unitedstateshistory #iteach5th #iteach6th #iteachmiddles #middleschool #iteach8th #iteach7th #socialstudiesteacher #historylessonplans #middleschoolteacher #teachersofig #teachergram #teachersofinstagram

Students love trying to beat their previous time! ⠀⁣ ⠀⁣ ➡ What Am I?⠀⠀⁣ These task cards require students to identify the amendment being described. The game will work well for small groups or the whole class! ⠀⠀⁣ ⠀⠀⁣ Click the link in bio @literacyinfocus to get both of these games for one low price.

Yesterday, I talked about how you can connect your 9/11 instruction to a “My Hero” writing assignment to make learning more relevant for your students. ⠀ ⠀ Swipe ➡️ to see more pics of the hero writing activity. The templates make a great bulletin board when the kids are done, too! ⠀ ⠀ This activity bundle is still half price for a couple more hours! Click the link in bio @literacyinfocus to grab it now! ⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀ #neverforget #september11th #socialstudies #ushistory #historyteacher #patriotday #ushistory #readingcomprehension #differentiation #teachersofig #teachersofinstagram #googleclassroom #remotelearning #iteach456 #middleschool

What does 9/11 or Patriot Day instruction look like in your classroom? It’s difficult to find accessible content that allows students to make authentic connections, right? ⠀ ⠀ I made this mini-unit because it’s difficult for students to connect with learning when the topic so sad and tragic. Instead, I have students focus on the meaning of a hero. ⠀ ⠀ The 9/11 lesson ends with a “My Hero” writing assignment that requires students to reflect on the meaning of the word hero and compose a short letter to someone they consider to be a hero in their own life.⠀ ⠀ Writing about a real-life hero gives students a chance to connect what they’ve learned about 9/11 to their own lives. ⠀ ⠀ Click the link in bio @literacyinfocus to grab this printable and digital activity bundle for HALF PRICE for 24 hours! ⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀ #neverforget #september11th #socialstudies #ushistory #historyteacher #patriotday #ushistory #readingcomprehension #differentiation #teachersofig #teachersofinstagram #googleclassroom #remotelearning #iteach456 #middleschool
