Shakespeare was such a talented writer, but why? It must be his use of figurative language, blended with his clever, twisting plots. This worksheet focuses on his use of metaphor, simile, personification, oxymoron, and hyperbole within...

Teach learners how to interact with both fiction and non-fiction text with a packet of activities and worksheets. After looking over text structure and the difference in text features between different types of writing,...

In this probability worksheet, 5th graders complete a chart by writing down 7 events that could happen to them. They label each event as being likely or unlikely to happen to them. They examine 5 events in a second chart, and write down...

Students are involved in activities that give them experiences predictingthe likelihood of certain events occurring. They become aware that certain outcomes are equally likely, more likely,or less likely than others to occur. Students...

An outstanding lesson on music awaits your young composers! They learn about patterns found in music, the different sections of an orchestra, and see the differences between musicians and a composer. Excellent streamed videos and good...

Middle schoolers apply properties of probability to the real world. In this probability lesson, learners simulate the construction of empirical distribution. They collect and analyze data using central tendencies.

Students explore probability.  For this statistics/probability lesson, students compare experimental and theoretical probability and use experimental probability to make predictions and conjectures.  Students explore the...

What would school be like if you couldn't teach lessons that require technology? Would it benefit the class? Would it hold them back? Have your learners read this article and answer the basic reading comprehension questions. Then have...

A series of reading activities is sure to engage your young readers! Based on comparing and contrasting ideas, the packet provides opportunities to compare characters, themes, texts, and other elements of fiction.

The game should be fair at all costs. The mini-assessment revolves around the ability to use probabilities to determine whether a game is fair. Individuals determine compound events to calculate simple probabilities and make...

Connect ratios, probability, and combination outcomes with a challenging activity idea. It guides your learners through probability of an event as fractions or ratios, on a number line, and with correct vocabulary. The class will be...

Students are introduced to the idea of probability by discussing the likelihood of events occurring. Pupils describe events that are certain, impossible, likely, and unlikely to occur. They determine the likelihood of an event occurring...

In this Of Mice and Men viewing guide worksheet, students study movie terminology as they read brief descriptions and respond to 26 short answer questions as the watch the film based on Steinbeck's novel.

Introduce learners to probability through a vocabulary preview that covers words like impossible, likely, unlikely, and certain. After reviewing what probability is learners assess four sentences in relation to how likely they are to...

Here is a fine presentation on probability, and the language of probability. Pupils are introduced to the words, impossible, unlikely, likely, and certain. Then, they consider a variety of events, and assign one of the words to describe...

n a class discussion Students identify events or situations as being likely to occur or unlikely to occur. Then, they work in pairs to generate likely and unlikely statements to share with the class.

In this probability worksheet, students use the rules of probability to calculate the likelihood of an event to occur in seven exercise sets and seventy problems. Examples, definitions, and formulas are provided.

Who said things were fair? The unit introduces probability and its connection to fairness. The class interacts with activities of chance and plays games to relate them to fairness. Groups design a fair game and develop a presentation....

Students explore probability and its use in predicting events and outcomes. Through guided practice and hands on exploration, they determine whether an event has a probablity of likely, unlikely, impossible, or certain. Students...

Take a spin to determine experimental probability. Small groups spin a spinner and keep track of the sums of the spins and calculate the resulting probabilities. Pupils use simulated frequencies to practice finding other probabilities to...

Designed to be used with an independent reading book, this activity provides practice with identifying and explaining literary terms. While they read, individuals find instances of literary devices and elements in use in their books....

"All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players." Shakespeare provides the examples on this worksheet that asks readers to identify the two things being compared and to explain the characteristics the two share.

Class members are introduced to probability using terms such as impossible, unlikely, likely, and certain. Numbers between zero and one are associated with the descriptions of probability. Pupils find the likelihood of chance experiments...
