BELL RINGERS INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE
MIDDLE GRADE/MIDDLE SCHOOL ELA BELL RINGERS {FULL YEAR BUNDLE}
Â
************************************
TEACH THREE DIFFERENT GRADES?
I teach 7th and 8th grade English Language arts and a 6th grade ELA elective. I didn’t want students having the same bell ringers all three years. Because of this, the bell ringers have the same format, but have completely different content.
Â
WHAT’S INCLUDED?
-
This resource would work great in grades 6th-9th.
-
These bell ringers are quick, simple, but most importantly, meaningful and engaging at the same time.
-
The focus is getting your middle school students to work right away, but still introducing them to quality ELA concepts and content.
-
All work is based on the 6th-9th grade ELA Common Core standards and the 7th and 8th grade Core Knowledge Topics.
Â
Monday: Vocabulary Word of the Week {Commonly misspelled/confused}
