Included in These English Bell-Ringers (Vol 4):
➡️ Monday Picture Prompts: Start your week with creative writing! Students will receive a high-interest picture and use it as inspiration to write. Students can use the visually appealing prompts to spark a fictional story, as inspiration for a descriptive piece, or as an inspiration for a personal memory from their past. An alternative response booklet or slides are also provided if you do not wish to use the Mon-Fri schedule.
➡️ Tuesday Text Fail (Grammar): On the next day, students will read a text message conversation and correct grammar errors, spelling mistakes, and punctuation errors. Detailed answer keys are provided that explain each of the errors for class review. A task card and digital and print booklet options are also provided to give you flexibility on how you want to use this resource.
➡️ Wednesday Word Choice: Help students improve their word choice with this next bell-ringer task. These bell-ringers allow students to improve their use of description (verbs, adverbs, and adjectives) by improving the word choice of given sentences. Each slide has two sentences, and students must improve the word choice of the sentences by choosing stronger verbs, adverbs, and adjectives. A separate response booklet in digital and print format is provided to give you flexibility if you do not want to follow the bell-ringer schedule.
➡️ Thursday Debates: Start your Thursday by getting students to practice persuasive language with these debate bell-ringers. This task is sure to get even your most reluctant students speaking as they attempt to convince their partner that their opinion is the correct one. The product includes everything you need to spark up friendly debate and discussion in the classroom.

The videos are inspirational, thought-provoking, and creative. This resource provides a structured approach to incorporating video journaling once a week to last you the entire school year.
➡️ Organized Weekly Student Response Pages/Slides and Teacher Slides: Each of the 40 bell-ringer weeks includes a PowerPoint or Google Slides presentation with each of the weekly slides organized by day as well as an accompanying weekly student handout or digital response slides. Distribute the weekly bell-ringer handout or share the digital response slides on Monday, and students will use it to complete the bell ringers for that week!
