TEKS ELA Playbook: Reading & Writing Activities for 2nd-5th grade
The kids in today’s classroom aren’t always responding to the way we’ve taught things in the past.
But how do we engage kids while still teaching the TEKS in an intentional way?
We know that hands-on reading activities and engaging writing activities are the way to go to reach your students!
But those activities can feel time-consuming and it’s hard to have something engaging for every unit when there’s so much to teach!
That’s why I created the TEKS ELA Playbook. It’s an all-in-one instructional binder for Texas teachers in grades 2-5!
