New This Week Social-Emotional Learning Hub, High School Grammar Warm-Ups, and Choice Boards

New This Week Social-Emotional Learning Hub, High School Grammar Warm-Ups, and Choice Boards This week's roundup of what is new on TeacherVision including a Social-Emotional Learning Hub, a High School Grammar War-Ups Packet, and ELA Choice Boards. It is May, but hopefully these new resources will feel like opening up a holiday present. This week we published a brand new content hub that includes social-emotional strategies and videos from Breathe For Change. We also have a packet of grammar warm-ups for high school students that are a perfect fit for end-of-the-year review. Finally, we have three brand new English Language Arts Choice Boards.   Social-Emotional Learning Hub If you donĂ¢€™t know about Breathe For Change, head to their website right now. This incredibly organization created by teachers for teachers is changing the way educators learn how to manage stress and develop a toolkit of social-emotional strategies they can take back to the classroom. Their curriculum and trainings incorporate everything from yoga to mindfulness to journaling, and the impact on teachers, students and schools is energizing and exciting. We partnered with Breathe For Change to bring you a Social-Emotional Learning Hub that is full of resources and strategies. There are printable pdfs that you can download and print, and helpful videos that show the strategies in action. Access the Social-Emotional Learning Hub here. High School Grammar Warm-Ups Packet If you read this blog consistently, you know that we have already published an Elementary School Grammar Warm-Ups Packet and a Middle School Grammar Warm-Ups Packet. This week we add grammar warm-ups for high school students. The packet includes ten grammar rules and exercises that support students to practice using those rules in their writing. The warm-ups are designed to take five-seven minutes, and would work really well for review this time of year. Access the High School Grammar Warm-Ups Packet here. English Language Arts Choice Boards We have been building up our library of choice boards starting with Math. This week we add three middle school ELA choice boards. These choice boards are designed to support middle school students with the opportunity to demonstrate reading comprehension by choosing from different activities. Access the ELA Choice Board here.
