A great resource for Intervention!
I like the set-up, but I have to go in and change several things b/c the exercises don't require the students to do what is required of the actual Common Core standard. Ex, students do know figurative language. The Daily Language wants the students to find the origin, meaning & write a sentence. The origin is not part of the standard. I feel it's better for the students to determine the meaning using context clues (instead of just looking it up), then write their own sentence. Instead, I give them a sentence using the idiom. Then they must determine, the meaning using the context clues I've provided in the sentence. Then they must write their own sentence using the idiom. I do the same thing for the proverb/adage on the Wednesday section.
The prefix section- I change it around & have the students to identify the prefix. Determine the meaning of the prefix, then then the meaning of the word. I do understand that when creating this product, it's created to serve teachers all over that may have different standard that they must follow. I'd like to send examples of how I tweak the Daily Language.
Hello. Thank you for taking the time to leave such detailed feedback. While the origin is not part of the standard, students find this information very interesting and knowing the origin does help students retain the meaning. I will also add that the act of finding the origin is a common core standard: "Consult reference materials (e.g., dictionaries, glossaries, thesauruses), both print and digital, to find the pronunciation and determine or clarify the precise meaning of key words and phrases." I am happy to hear that you have been able to adapt this resource to meet your teaching needs, though.
Kind of high expectations before reading -- concepts are challenging for many younger students with nothing concrete from which to build references. With the right group, it would be great.
great resource
Very clear. My only suggestion would be more text structures and lines in the boxes.

I downloaded this so I can see what's included, and it looks like someone may have edited your original Google Form for the quiz? Instead of asking for the name, it says "pico conner" and someone added extra questions to the form. I just wanted to let you know!
Also, would you consider at some point creating Google Slides with the task cards instead of Forms? I was checking this out as a sample of your grammar units for my 3rd graders, and I would love something like that to help save paper!
Hello, Erica! Thank you so much for letting me know. I just corrected the Task Card Google Form so an original version should now force copy. At this time, I don't have plans to create Google Slides versions of the Task Cards. However, I will definitely consider that for possible future updates.
I see you recommend doing the sketch notes on Thursday. We only have grammar four days a week. Would it work to have students complete the sketch notes on Monday while you go through the slides?
Hi Suzanne. I don't know if most students can complete the notes while you show the slideshow. Teachers will most likely need to complete the notes as students follow along.
Do you have the PowerPoint in a Google Slides version?
Hello! The PowerPoint should transfer over to Google Slides just fine.
I am looing to buy the bundle. Do you have a scope & sequence ...or is it just pick and choose as you/your district sees fit?
Hi There! The units are designed to be taught in the order they are presented within the bundle. However, there is some flexibility if you are required to follow a specific scope and sequence.
