Hard as it is to believe, teachers tell us all of the time that their students actually ask to do the funny, wacky activities from Hot Fudge Monday.This new, expanded edition of our best-selling book offers even more tasty ways to teach parts of speech, including quirky quizzes, extended writing activities, and Internet enrichment activities that reinforce new skills.Hot Fudge Monday joins the study of words to the process of writing those words into meaningful sentences. The book consists of eight chapters, each one dealing with one part of speech. Students learn about the various parts of speech through short writing activities that are interesting, humorous, and a bit offbeat.Grades 7-12

This book isn''t for everyone. It''s fairly, well, weird. However, we like weird, and we have found that most students do, too. "Short and Sweet" is a book of 28 reproducible creative writing activities. The activities help students stretch their imaginations and have fun with writing at the same time. Activities in "Short and Sweet" include: Endangered Pumpkins; 1-900-PIMPLES; and Tabloid Times.Most activities can be completed in less than a class period, with time left over for sharing. You can stop there or go on to let students complete more finished, polished works. For grades 5-9, but many older students will enjoy the book as well.
