This deceptively simple-looking site offers an easy way to encourage continuous, non-stop writing. Users set a goal of either words or time and choose start. If you stop typing for too long, all your words vanish, creating pressure to keep moving and preventing over-editing or getting stuck. This exercise serves as a tool to encourage brainstorming, freewriting, overcoming writer's block, and practicing flow state writing.

tag(s): fluency (32), writing (309)

In the Classroom

Use this tool to help students develop writing fluency so they can focus on ideas rather than grammar and spelling rules. Ghost Writer is also an excellent tool for activating schema when starting a new unit. Ask students to set the timer and write nonstop about what they know about the upcoming unit's content or what they don't know. In science class, use Ghost Writer as a hypothesis brain dump, or use it as part of reading lessons for students to share all they know about characters from a novel you are reading. Extend learning by asking students to take their ideas and develop them further in Google Docs or Microsoft Word.

The Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English supports vocabulary growth and language comprehension by providing definitions that rely on a limited core vocabulary, along with helpful example sentences, audio recordings of pronunciation, and themed word lists, so that students can understand words in authentic contexts. Because the language is simplified and easy to follow, this resource is especially ideal for multilingual learners and useful both during classroom instruction and for independent practice in reading and writing.
This site includes advertising.

tag(s): dictionaries (48)

In the Classroom

Have students identify 3-5 academic vocabulary words related to a social studies or science unit and explain how they connect to the topic. Have students select a word and explore how the dictionary presents it for Multilingual Learners, including audio for pronunciation and bilingual support. They can create a vocabulary card that includes the definition in English, a translation in a language they know or are interested in, and a sentence using the word in context. Have students choose a simple sentence from their writing and, using the dictionary and example sentences, replace one common word with a more precise or powerful synonym.

The SMART Goals Worksheet from Lake Superior State University is an easy-to-use tool that helps students set clear and realistic goals. It guides them to make goals that are Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-Bound. The worksheet asks simple questions, such as the goal, progress measurement criteria, and the goal date to complete the project. It also includes a section for creating an action plan that lists steps to take, potential challenges, and helpful resources. This worksheet is useful for teaching students how to plan, stay focused, and work toward their goals in an organized way.

tag(s): thinking skills (101)

In the Classroom

Have students brainstorm personal, academic, or classroom goals (for example, reading more, improving writing, or being kinder on the playground). Then guide them through completing the SMART Goals Worksheet together to turn a simple idea into a clear, structured goal. Have students pair up to share their SMART goals and action plans. Partners can give friendly feedback by checking if the goals are specific, measurable, and realistic. Create a "Goal Wall" where students post their goals (or just the focus area, like "Reading" or "Organization"). Update the wall as students reach milestones to celebrate effort and growth.
