About Demilinea Resources
Hi, I'm Demi!
Hi! I'm Demi and I teach elementary ESL students. I love creating differentiated resources that are also fun and engaging for English Language Learners and Students with Special Needs!
My journey began a decade ago as a general education classroom teacher for 32 first-grade ESL students. Over the years working in the public school system, I had the opportunity to teach various grades and types of learners. Once I transitioned to the ENL service provider role, I noticed how demanding the curriculum was and how limited the resources for English language learners were. My experience in both roles has given me the opportunity to observe my students and the curriculum through a different lens. I began to develop and implement various curriculum modifications and scaffolds, which led me here! I hope you enjoy my resources and find them useful for your students! :)
Scaffolded Instruction & Differentiation
Are you teaching your students about Author's Purpose? This comprehensive set of Author's Purpose Graphic Organizers/Anchor Chart helps students identify and analyze author's purpose through the PIE framework (Persuade, Inform, Entertain). The package includes 4 pages of differentiated worksheets that allow students to:
- Identify the author's purpose
- Provide evidence to support their thinking
- Practice critical reading skills
- Develop analytical writing abilities
Benefits:
- Clear, structured format that scaffolds learning
- Multiple versions with varying levels of support
- Flexible templates that work with any text
- Easy-to-follow format for independent work
Support for ESL/ELL Students:
- Visual organization aids comprehension (Circle & Write)
- Consistent formatting reduces cognitive load
- Step-by-step approach builds confidence
- Clear, simple language in instructions
- Structured response areas guide writing
This resource aligns with reading comprehension standards and provides teachers with ready-to-use materials that support all learners in understanding author's purpose. Perfect for grades 2-6, intervention groups, and differentiated instruction.
Aligned with Curriculum & Standards
Did your school implement the new HMH Into Reading curriculum? Are you overwhelmed with the amount of skills covered and assessed in one week/module? The module assessment covers various skills within different reading components and it becomes difficult for both us teachers and the students to know what or how to study for it! Don't worry, I've got you covered. I created this End-of-Module 7 Assessment Review Sheet for Grade 2 students to use as a reference when studying for the test! It has a quick review of the skills assessed at the end of the module. I added student-friendly examples and visuals as well! This will help prepare your students for the assessment and can supplement the program.
