Directions: Write down the events that took place in the correct order.

Students must follow the path and explain what happened in their reading in the correct order.
This is one of the multiple worksheets my special education students used often in order to keep them constantly thinking about what was happening in the story.

I would encourage my students to read the story once all the way through, then go back and re-read and fill in this sequence map as they went along.

I hope this helps =)

This is an updated version of the Personal Word Wall used with my 4th Grade Special Education Students. They used it to help add adjectives to their writing, but it was also great because it improved their spelling and expanded their vocabulary as well.

Believe it or not, one of my 8th graders showed me this trick and it blew my mind!

Some of you may be thinking, this isn't a useful resource because it doesn't help the student understand the concept of multiplying by 9 and that's understandable. However, I've taught 4th and 5th grade special education and little tricks like these are a lifesaver and confidence booster when students encounter multiplication problems.
​I really hope you find this helpful too. 

Optional Materials: 1 sheet of graph paper (per student).
​This is if you want them to graph the information from the pictograph.

Teacher Tip: Print this activity double-sided to save paper. 

I'm not sure about you, but I have an account with a long list of websites that require usernames and passwords. In an effort to make things easier on myself, I created this really simple form. There are tons of other free password cheat sheets out there, but I really wanted one that included a box for clues/hints.

 Perhaps I'm overly cautious, but I don't like my full password written out anywhere. In the password box I usually put something like "Pc4#s" meaning the first letter of the word has a capital p followed by the second word that begins with a lowercase c and a pattern of 4 known numbers. My clue would read "my favorite food" and I know that to be "Potatochips1234". Either way, if you download the MS Word format, you can customize the document to your liking or type your information instead of printing and writing.

A few more word problems for students to solve using 
addition, subtraction, multiplication and repeated addition.

I gave this sheet to my students for homework at least twice a week. Every night my class was required to read for at least 30 minutes. I would often give them this 3 question worksheet to quickly assess their knowledge of their book. Keep in mind, several of my students were well below reading level and still reading picture books. This sheet works well with shorter books students can read in one sitting or I'm sure you can use introduce it once readers have completed a chapter book. 

Students are asked to identify each number sentence as either TRUE or FALSE.

Students are asked to solve word problems involving basic 
addition, subtraction, multiplication and division skills.

Directions: 
Read each of the following math problems carefully. 
Re-read the problem to make sure you understand. 
Show your work and circle your final answer.

For this quick assessment, I included the definitions of maximum, minimum and median at the top to remind students of the difference. When teaching special education, I often provided students with just a little more information than usual to help them feel more confident about completing activities. 

Now that you have read the story “The Boy Who Cried Wolf”, think about the author’s purpose of this non-fiction tale. Why do you think the author wrote this particular fable? What moral do you think the author wants readers to learn from this story? Why do you think nobody believed the boy at the end of the story? Use supporting details from the story to support your answer.

In your answer, be sure to:

• describe the author’s purpose of the passage
  
• describe the moral of this fable
  
• explain what the author wants us to learn from the story
  
• explain why no one believes the boy at the end of the story
  

Check your writing for correct spelling, grammar, capitalization, and punctuation.

The Three Little Pigs is about a wolf who wants nothing more than to eat three little pigs. Now, think about the wolf in the tale of Little Red Riding Hood. After thinking about the two characters, tell how the two wolves are alike. Afterwards, tell how they are different. Use supporting details from both stories to support your answer.

In your answer, be sure to

• tell how the wolf in “The Three Little Pigs” is similar to the wolf from “Little Red Riding Hood”
  
• tell how the two wolves are different
  
• use supporting details from both stories to support your answer
  
• check your writing for correct spelling, grammar, capitalization and punctuation.
  

These pages are great for students who have difficulty with spacing and lining up their numbers.
