The book of Revelation describes Satan's wrath on God's people and God's judgment on humanity as seven seals. Additional passages in Matthew, Daniel and other books add further detail. By piecing together all of these references, we can create a timeline of end-time events, presented here. Feel free to print this chart and stow it in your Bible for reference.

How to Write a Great Essential Question % %

20 weeks later and "A Stick Figure Macbeth" has finally come to an end. In case you're just joining me, here's what happened during the past 20 weeks:

Oh my goodness, I so hate packing up my stuff at the end of the year. And I thought I was organized! Oh well. While I was cleaning, I took a few snapshots of some posters/anchor charts I've created for my room. If I can create them, you can create them. I've elaborated under the pictures in case you'd like to try it yourself! Category One: Anchor Charts/Posters for Listening Activities, Composers, and Musicians Here's a poster I based off of a Pin about "while authors write". It was pretty easy to draw everything and has been a great reference all year long. This is Maestro, our conducting elephant. Students of all ages love to use him when we try out a listening piece (it is a great motivator/reward for appropriate listening behavior). One student holds one end of the poster and another student holds the other. One student, the "conductor" stands behind Maestro and "conducts" through the whole. The conductor gets to use a long gray sock, just like the elephant's trunk. Here's another great reference poster for students to use when listening to a piece. Sometimes I ask for a specific question to be focused on, but usually I have the students prepare mental answers for at least one purple question and one black. I've used this poster as a reference for student-created posters (5th grade) during our Jazz unit. Students are supplied with the materials, a picture of the artist, a short bio, and 10 interesting facts. They need to create a neat, organize poster that includes at least 5 facts and present it to the class (working in groups of four or less). Category 2: Rhythm and Melodic Posters/Anchor Charts Here's a chant I created for K and 1 to help with our steady beat/rhythm lessons. There is a steady beat side (and we practice pointing to the hearts - I also have heart beat maps for this that they use individually) and stomping to the beat while saying the lyrics. I add some students to hand drums. And here is the rhythm side. Students practice chanting the rhythm on "ta" and "titi" while clapping, then using rhythm sticks. Here is a reference pocket chart the older students can use (it is up all year round): I love this music staff poster. The students can refer to it as they learn the lines and spaces on the music staff. Even my little ones know the poem: This is a poster I created for 2nd - 5th grades as we worked on sight-reading songs. It mirrors the format of most of my powerpoints. We often discuss things in the "cherry on top" as we go: Here's a simple poster for use in pentatonic Orff music (especially with Mallet Madness): This is a poster I use when discussing, well harmony, chords, and accompaniment (it does all three). You can use these in rock songs (or with your own or the students' own piano accompaniments) to discuss the harmonic progression of the song. Because there isn't "too much" here, 4th or 5th grade students can benefit from a mini-lesson on harmony, even if, like me, you don't delve into chords too much. Of course students can accompany a favorite song by following you as you point to each chord and playing their respective boomwhackers. I'm working with more of a specific lesson plan to use these chords with, hopefully including some favorite songs of the kiddos - will post soon! Category 3: Misc I did this lesson with my 4th and 5th graders two years ago, my first year at this school (they were going to see some live performances and needed to learn about the instruments - fast). First, I let them decorate their folder while listening to some instrumental works. While the works were playing, students could read about them on the screen at their leisure. In subsequent lessons, the students filled in the middle with facts, notes, pictures, and musings about the instrument families. I had a worksheet divide into four (one for each family) and the students were asked to write 3 facts, list all instruments in the family, and choose a favorite. I used sfskids.org as the main source of info, augmented with live examples and videos on youtube. On the back, the wrote about their favorite instrument out of all the families and reflected on the performances they saw. Best of all, they can take this with them and have a reference for their middle school band selections. This is "Brenda" (named after my own mom who always looks awesome when singing) and I used her as a reference during choir rehearsals. I attached her to my stand and all I had to do was point at a specific part of the poster to give the kiddos a reminder when something needed to be fixed. I told the kiddos, "This is why I don't teach art" but they seemed to love Brenda and I plan to give her a permanent spot in the room next year. I can't wait to create more over the summer!

We can all imagine our own personal hell of terminal exams, stacked on top of one another, with acres of knowledge to remember. It is the stuff of sleepless nights, for teachers and for our students. And yet, if we teach with memory in mind all the time, we can mitigate our students’ stresses (and our own!) we can make a habit of remembering and learning effectively. ‘Memory for learning’ is not the stuff of last night revision – it should prove a basic tenet of all of our teaching and o

At the end of the year, once testing is over and kids have lost their minds are ready for summer, it's the perfect time to pull out the messy science experiments to review all the fun skills you've learned this year! One of my favorite activities to do with kiddos of ALL ages is to make OOBLECK! If you've never made oobleck, you are in for a treat. It can get a little messy, but it is the BEST sensory experience! Oobleck has properties of a solid and a liquid (great review of matter!) and it's easy to make (measuring skills review!) and actually easy to clean up- if it gets on the carpet, let it dry completely and then it can be vacuumed up easily, as it turns into a dry powder. To start the lesson, read the great book by Dr. Seuss, Bartholomew and the Oobleck. *affiliate link to the book on Amazon* Then, allow students to make the oobleck! (If you want to make it ahead of time yourself as one big batch, that is okay, too! Remember, it is two parts cornstarch to one part water. One year I accidentally flipped that conversion and OOPS- we did not have oobleck that day.) You can download this free directions page to help your students make oobleck on their own: As I mentioned above, oobleck has properties of a solid and a liquid: it will take the shape of its container like a liquid, but with force (like a hit, poke, or squeeze) it acts like a solid! It can be rolled into a ball, but it can also flow and drip like a liquid. Oobleck is a non-Newtonian fluid. And make sure to show them this awesome video of people walking, and even DANCING, on a pool of oobleck!! (HERE IS THE SAFESHARE LINK) Your kids will LOVE all the oobleck excitement! It's a great way to finish the year with a bang- and a splat! :) Have fun!

The next time you’re feeling stressed out, overwhelmed, or unsure, reach for a moment of calm awareness: a mindful SNACK. Here’s how to do it.

Hi, friends! It's Blair from One Lesson at a Time, here with a super fun and meaningful way to wrap up the school year with your kiddos. Best of all? Totally free! Whoop whoop! It's the end of the year and the finish line is ahead of us - like a mirage in the distance. It's soooo close.....and yet, right up until the very last moments, also so very far away. The last few days most of us are fighting off daydreams of late mornings in bed & sunny afternoons at the pool - and making mental checklists of all the work we're going to get done over the summer, the PD hours to fill, etc. #letsbeserious The last few days of school are the perfect time to reinforce the classroom community you’ve worked so hard to build. Even though most of our students share our enthusiasm for the end of the year on the outside, it can be easy to forget that for many of them - even for most of them - this transition time is one that comes with a degree of uncertainty and trepidation. What will my next teacher be like? Will I be in the same class as my friends? What am I going to do all summer? It's so important to give our kiddos time to reflect on their year – their growth, progress, and the relationships they’ve developed with their classmates. I wanted to give my own students a way to share their favorite things about each other and create an easy but super meaningful parting gift for one another. I’ve used “class compliments” as a holiday gift before, and it was so successful that I decided I’d do it for the end of the year as well. First, my students and I review how to give a good compliment: Then we generate a list of character traits that we can use to compliment each other. After we create our own on chart paper, I pass out these charts for students to take back to their seats. If they’ve thought of more, they can add them to the back. We talk about how a really great compliment is about the person on the INSIDE, rather than the outside. Sure, it’s nice to tell people you like their shoes or you think they’re pretty, but it’s even nicer to comment on character traits. Then, students get to work writing compliments to each and every one of their classmates. It’s a really nice way to spend an afternoon or two – I put the music on in the background and let the kids enjoy the warm fuzzy feelings that come from making others feel good. :) After the students have all finished their compliments, I enlist a few of them to help me collate them. Each student’s compliments get slipped into a manilla envelope with a cover on the front. This is the most labor intensive part, and since doing this, I've thought of an infinitely smarter way and am now kicking myself. So....allow me to save you a lot of time by doing not as I did, but as I thought of later: •Put a stack of blank sheets on each student's desk. •Put an envelope with the student's name on it on each desk. •Have the students rotate throughout the room, writing compliments for each classmate when they sit at his or her desk. •When they are finished writing a compliment, they simply slip it into the labeled envelope, which is already right there. •Then, they move on to another desk. •Slap Blair upside the head for collating these herself like a complete crazy person. *think, Blair, THINK!* Whyyyyyyyy oh whyyyyyyyy don't I think of these things BEFORE doing them the hard way?! Hand them out on the last day of school (no peeking!) for a meaningful gift from the heart for each and every student. Students will cherish their classmates’ words for years to come. This activity is available for free in my TpT store - and last year I got some feedback on it that was so very powerful. I can't imagine the pain this student's family has gone through. But it is incredibly moving to know that his classmates' words were a source of comfort to them during a difficult time. The activity is just a cute way of presenting students' own words. It's the words themselves that hold power and meaning. You don't need to print these pages to do something similar. (In fact, when I first started doing this, I've simply used cut-up scrap paper.) This feedback is such a strong reminder of how very important it is to teach students the power of words - not only that words can hurt, but also that our words can have an incredibly positive impact on the lives of others. This activity is simply one way to help teach that. Click {HERE} to download this freebie from my TpT store! Hang in there, my friends - you are in the home stretch! YOU CAN DO IT! And for those of you already done with school....dang! Nicely done! ;) Thanks so much for stopping by Primary Chalkboard! Have a fab day!
