Boxes and Bullets: Lucy Calkins Essay Writing Tool

I designed these 5 versions of the Boxes and Bullets lessons for the Units of Writing curriculum for students who struggle organizing their thoughts, writing neat enough to express themselves through writing, or benefit from using the computer versus notebook/pencil method.

There are 5 different Google Slides with graphic organizers that can be shared with students to edit or print. I love how students can collaborate and teachers can comment on their work with ease! And, oh yeah, they're free! -Emily

ABC Observation Form * Analysis Chart * Behavior Options

Download this behavior tracking freebie today! I took the tried and tested ABC (antecedent, behavior, consequence) form and updated it with behavior choices for efficient form completion and a behavior tracking analysis form. The analysis form will help you pinpoint areas where the student is most and least successful behavior-wise (days of week, times of day, subject areas). Enjoy! :)

Use this analysis chart to understand your student and make behavior intervention plan.

This easy-to-use form can be used by teachers, specialists, aides, etc. throughout the school.

A version of the form has these behavior options in the "B" column in order to speed up the documentation process. :)
