Language Arts Ideas

Here are selection of activities that I've developed for my classroom. Many of them were designed to be used with Cooperative Learning strategies, but they don't come with specific directions. Be sure to sign up for Candler's Classroom Connections, a bi-weekly newsletter where I provide directions for many of the printables on my site! For complete literacy lessons, click on the Literacy Mini Pack link on the right.
