Made It Monday

I am linking up a day early with 4th Grade Frolics for my favorite weekly linky! After this week is it turning into a monthly linky for the school year.  I have two Made it Monday items that I created this week.  The first one is a freebie :)

Before Reading Activity Menu 

This four page freebie is a great addition to reading centers or Daily 5 activities. There are three different before reading menus with 9 activities on each card.  Click here for this freebie. 
 

Common Core: Text Dependent Question Prompts


The Common Core standards focus on students’ ability to read closely to determine what a text says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it.

This resource contains 16 text dependent questions. It can be used as a center or for small groups.
