These bell ringers were designed to be stress-free, print-free, and prep-free so students can be 100% independent and get to work right away while teachers have time to take attendance and get ready for each class period.

Here's what you'll get:

Original PDF version to be displayed while students complete their work in a composition notebook. No prep and no copies.
Editable PowerPoint version to be displayed while students complete their work in a composition notebook. No prep and no copies. Teachers can adjust directions and content as needed.
Editable Google Slides Version. Adapted instructions and slides for students to complete all work in Google Classroom.

Prep is quick and easy... Literally, just display the bell ringers or assign them in your digital classroom. Students will write their daily work in a notebook or type right into their Google slides.

Your students will love knowing exactly what to do when they enter class and you'll love that you'll finally have time to take attendance because students will be 100% independent. They'll easily get to work and learn important ELA concepts each day.

All of these bell ringers are based on the fifth and sixth-grade reading and language common core standards and concepts. Each day gives enough information for students to be able to review or learn as they work so you aren't spending that precious time trying to teach new concepts.

Nine weeks of the following bell ringers are included:

Monday: Root or Affix of the Week: Students write the root or affix, the meaning, three examples, and draw pictures for each example. Selected from grades 4-7 most used affixes and roots.
Tuesday: Picture of the Week: Students make as many inferences as possible about the picture in the presentation. Students write in at least 2-3 complete sentences.
Wednesday: Sentence of the Week: Students correct a grammatically incorrect sentence based on the CCSS 4-7 language standards.
Thursday: Vocabulary Word of the Week: Students write, define, break up, use the word in a sentence, and illustrate a CCSS literary device vocabulary word or CCSS vocabulary word. Based on the CCSS 4-7 standards.
Friday: Quote of the Week: Students read a quote and write what the quote means to them or makes them think of. Many quotes chosen from 4-7 grade popular/award-winning novels or inspirational role models.

TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID…

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kimberly G. says, "I love this set of Bell Ringers!! It has saved me so much time, and it gets my students in the right mindset for my class. Instead of sharing this digitally with my students, I decided to project each day's assignment on the SMARTboard for them to write in their notebooks. I appreciate that these are editable so I could adapt them for this purpose. I love the different themes for every day, and my students appreciate knowing what to expect for each class. Thank you so much for creating this!!"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sydney V. says, "This is my first year attempting bell ringers and this program is set up wonderfully. It is aspects of ELA that the students needs to review and it does just that. It also allows opportunities for reteaching of older skills. They are the right length for students to come in and start and not take too much time away from the lessons."

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wendy L. says, "My students LOVED this as our bell ringer. The slides are colorful and easy to read and correlated with multiple standards. I appreciated that the slides are editable as well (I could add, "5. Finished? Read or work on your...." as needed). Many of my students this past year were quite creative and their notebooks were beautiful. The organization was key -- and quite simple. I will definitely use this coming year. Thank you!"
