Who is the Productive Teacher?

When I worked in the classroom, I spent hours finding, creating, and prepping lessons for my
students. I worked mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays, but I never finished. This is the
way many teachers work, and it isn’t sustainable.

Now that I am dedicating myself to creating resources for teachers, I am focusing on making
rigorous, interesting materials that allow a teacher to focus on teaching, not lesson planning.
When possible, I include options for differentiation, video links, and activity suggestions, so you
have everything you need to plan a complete lesson.

I sell resources bundled into a unit or separated into small chunks, so you can get what you need
for your classroom when you need it.

My kindergarten through 5th-grade math resources use models to help students understand new
concepts and memorize math facts. All of my math fact resources are designed for students to use
independently, so you are free to work with individual students or small groups. Even a student
who has never multiplied before will be able to use the models provided to practice multiplication
facts.

My reading passages are designed to examine a topic holistically, so science, social studies, and
reading are all combined into one lesson. I find that science topics are easier for kids to
understand when they learn the whole story. I write my reading passages for 3rd through 8th-
grade students, but specific topics may be useful in a high school classroom.

My spelling, grammar, and Greek and Latin roots sets are designed for weekly practice over the
entire year. As the teacher, you print out each week’s materials and you are done. Your students
get hands-on practice that will improve their writing week after week.

Being productive isn’t working hard, it is working smart. With these resources, you are the
productive teacher. You will have everything you need to teach your students effectively without
spending hours prepping in the classroom. Instead, you can spend your time responding to
specific student needs, planning extra activities for your students, or having fun with your own
family and friends.

I always price my resources with a teacher’s budget in mind, but you can save even more by
following my store on Teachers Pay Teachers. All of my new products are 50% off for the first 24
hours, so you can get some great deals. I also love giving away resources on Facebook or at my
website. Basically, follow me, and you will save time and money.

Adjectives

Adjectives are words that describe a noun. Adjectives can include descriptions of
how a noun acts, looks, feels, smells, tastes, or sounds. Sometimes nouns will act like
adjectives when they describe another noun. For example, a tree house is a house
located in a tree. Possessive adjectives show the owner of a noun. My, your, his, and
her are all possessive adjectives. Numbers are also adjectives.

Underline or highlight the adjectives in each sentence.

1. Henry stared down at the brown dog.

2. Lila ate chocolate ice cream.

3. I have six cookies.

4. Kyle went to the store to buy strawberry yogurt.

5. Nina did a beautiful dance across the stage.

6. The gray cat sat on the orange chair.

7. Gina was fun to play with at recess.

8. The cow was black, but she made white milk.

9. The seven little puppies ran around the huge yard.

10. My favorite blanket is blue and white.

11. Louise ran around the circular track.

12. Where are my pink socks?

13. That movie was so long!

14. Jamie is my best friend.

15. That hat is his.
