Raise your hand if your students or kids hate writing… yeah, I’ve been there. It can be stressful searching for way to make writing fun. Kids struggle to come up with “good” ideas and aren’t sure how to organize their story. I’ve got a fun solution to that.. and more.
I know vocabulary instruction is essential for reading comprehension. But, if you’re schedule is like mine, teaching multiple words in depth within a week is a challenge. So, I started pulling a Word of the Week from our weekly vocabulary list and adding a fun activity to help the word “stick” in my kids’ minds.
Kids are naturally curious creatures. They absorb information like a sponge and gravitate to activities that are fun and engaging. This is why learning games are a fantastic way to help kids of any age learn various skills and concepts.
Oh, summer! The time for running through sprinklers, sleeping late, and driving your parents crazy saying “I’m bored” by 10 am. n the spirit of younger me (and all the parents begging for help this summer), I’ve rounded up 6 of my favorite summer activity kits inspired by the curious nature of gifted kiddos.
My number one goal is to make enrichment easy for you! One way I can accomplish this goal is by thinking about what your curious kid might need. Do they need to be challenged? Are they looking for a new topic to explore? How can you pair a book for added enrichment?
