Good Teaching Can Be Easy!

I was new to grade 5 and teaching in general. This resource helped me feel confident and prepared in teaching all of these units. Students found experiments and inquiry projects engaging and meaningful. Thank you!

This is a great unit to own! I have used it for both split classes and straight grades. There is a lot of valuable information in this packet. There are full lesson plans for you to follow along with your class and the activities are very hands on and some units do require a lot of inquiry and research from the students (as stated in the title). With the amount of inquiry involved I would say these units are more designed for your higher students (especially if you are trying to complete the lessons in a split grade). Overall a great resource and Madly Learning is always willing to provide assistance when needed!

This has brought my ELA instruction to the next level! It took some time to figure out the program and it does take a little time in the beginning to prep, but is sooo user friendly. It has helped me to make the most out of every instructional minute!

I was new to teaching in the Junior grades (after teaching 10 years in Primary) I knew how to teaching students to read, but had no idea what to do with them once they could read, haha. This resource was invaluable to me as a grade 4 teacher for so many reasons. I loved how it helped me organize the year. I knew that I was teaching all the aspects of the curriculum multiple times because of the spiralling aspect of the program. The guided reading passages were differentiated which was amazing for my classes. The graphic organizers and resources that the students used were well laid out and organized. My students thrived when given the ability to write about what they wanted. Finally, the read-aloud books are high engaging for students, varied in topics and interests. My students loved finding out what our new book was each week. This program is incredible!!

Really interesting activities for students to practice different math skills. They are able to practice the same type of activities over and over which is great for building confidence and reviewing specific skills. Easy to implement and great for formative assessment 🙂 Thank you
