21st Century Classroom: Technology Themed Decor

As a school year winds down, I start to think about how I will prepare for the following school year.  I recently decided that I would like my classroom theme for next year to be infused with technology.  Students love using iPads, iPods, Smart Boards, etc., so why not include those elements in my classroom decor? That was my inspiration for all of the tech. themed resources you see below.  I created a "21st Century Classroom: Tech. Themed Decor MEGA BUNDLE" that includes every resource you see below (241 pages)!!! I also separated each set, so you can pick and choose which ones you would like to use in your classroom.  I hope you like these resources as much as I do.  I can't wait to use them! :) 

It includes all of the following:

21st Century Classroom: Tech. Themed Decor Base Set

Tech. Themed Editable Newsletters

Tech. Themed Editable Certificates

 

Tech. Themed Word Wall

Tech. Themed Behavior Clip Chart

Tech. Themed Color Posters

Tech. Themed Numbers 1-20 Posters

In other news...I've really been on a giveaway kick lately, and I wanted to share the newest giveaway that I have contributed to.  I donated "My Spring Break" to Michaela's 300 Follower Giveaway. Check out her site and enter the giveaway for a chance to win a bunch of cool products! Good luck!!!

Similes, Metaphors, Test Prep, and a Currently, Oh My!

It took a long time to get this set done, but I'm so proud of it!  I decided to make this set, "Identifying Similes and Metaphors: Monthly Practice," since one of the fourth grade ELA standards is for students to be able to identify similes and metaphors.  I created 8-12 sentences to go with each month. Some are similes, some are metaphors, and some are neither (they are just regular sentences).  Students have to color the sentences based on which type of sentence they are: simile, metaphor, or neither.  I also included a colored in "answer sheet" for teachers to refer to, or for students to use to self-grade their work.  Lastly, there is an extension page where students can write what two things are being compared in the similes and metaphors, as well as what the similes and metaphors mean. This set can be used to help introduce similes and metaphors to your students, or as reinforcement of these concepts throughout the school year.

I decided to combine three of my sets into one big Test Preparation Bundle!  You can save $2.00 by buying the bundle, versus buying the sets separately. With state testing just around the corner, these resources can provide fun and visually appealing ways to prepare your students for their tests! 

Once again, I am linking up with Oh' Boy 4th Grade for a currently.  Even though I'm a little late, here it is!

Figurative Language Posters and Super Words Revamped

Yesterday I decided to make some figurative language posters.  I created posters for the following types of figurative language: simile, metaphor, personification, hyperbole, onomatopoeia, and alliteration.  Each poster consists of the definition of the term, an example, and a picture to go with it.  These are perfect for intermediate grade classrooms!

Recently, I decided to go back and revamp my first freebie ever (from March of last year)!  I am now selling this pack for $2.00.  It consists of definitions of the following terms: predict, compare, contrast, analyze, identify, infer, describe, summarize, and explain.  I am planning on hanging up these posters before our state tests to review their meanings with my students.
