__ Poetry Unit __ This unit of study is geared toward grades 3 - 5 but can certainly be adapted for lower grades. Teach your students all about what is a poem, how to read a poem, and how to write poetry using descriptive language. Complete poems and excerpts are provided along with the website links where the poems can be found. Some websites are very engaging and interactive and feature sound and animation.



__Engage NY__ has posted several modules of instruction in math in grade K, 2, 3, and 5. Modules are added frequently so be sure to check back often. (The 3rd grade module consists of 35 days of instruction in fractions, complete with tasks, "teacher says" / step by step presentation of content, assessment, etc.)

__K-5 Math Teaching Resources__ is a great site with scaffold ideas to use with ELLs and SWDs. Ideas include pictures, manipulatives, read alouds, and activities that are aligned to the standards.
