Dear Buyer,

Thank you for your interest in these task cards. My gifted 3rd graders have so much fun doing these.

Email me at razmilovic3rdgrade@yahoo.com, if you need these bigger, would like to change one, found an

error, or want this in a word document. Want other months? Email me, or go to

teacherspayteachers.com, or do a google search for victoriarazmilovic….

Ideas for the Number 7, Students can list everything about that makes them unique. Go to wordle.net

and have students create their own wordle. Make sure you have students save their word as a word

document before submitting it on wordle. Once you submit the document you cannot go back and change

it. On wordle, the more times you time a certain word the bigger the word becomes. I use this in

comprehension question quizzes. Students need to find out what is important to each character and make

the words bigger or smaller.
