What's The Scoop?

We just added a new language activity pack to our TpT store, and if you like ice cream, than  you are set!  The language pack includes the following activities:

VOCABULARY MATCH:  Target words are taken from the activities within the language pack.  Students match the vocabulary word on the cone to its definition on the scoop of ice cream.

THE HISTORY OF ICE CREAM:  Students read “The History of Ice Cream” summary and then sort 10 events, some of which are important events and some of which are not important events.  Then, students place the important events on the timeline.  Students label dates on “The History of Ice Cream” timeline.

ICE CREAM IN A BAG: Follow the recipe to make ice cream in a bag.  Once finished, ask the inferencing/reasoning questions. 

COMPARE AND CONTRAST: Students compare/contrast the recipe for ice cream in a bag with their favorite ice cream.  

PERSUASIVE WRITING: Students fill out the graphic organizer and transfer their writing to the letter template.  Students try to persuade their principal to serve their favorite dessert at school.

SEQUENCING: Students sequence how to make their favorite dessert OR retell how to make ice cream in a bag.

…and my FAVORITE! 

GIVING COMPLIMENTS: Write each student’s name on the ice cream cone.  Provide each student with one scoop of ice cream (for each student in the group).  Ask them to write something they like or admire about each student.  Put the ice cream cones together and secure with tape, glue, or by laminating.

We are excited about this summer pack.  Let us know what you think!
