 Writer's Workshop: Creating an Effective Atmosphere for Writers
(Together, we will create an anchor chart of what it looks like and sounds like during Writer's Workshop.)
Handwriting: Q (Big Curve down, big curve up, give it a kickstand)
Project: Q-Tip Painting on Letter Q

 Math: Ordering Cards 
This lesson involves placing playing cards in order from least to most. Let's say an 8, 1, 3, and 10 are drawn. The children will place the cards like this: 1,3,8,10. Numberlines support this skill as it isn't always easy to tell what comes next if it isn't the number that comes right after it. I encourage you to do this with your own deck of cards at home as this is an important skill the kids need to know. Their work focuses on:
~Ordering quantities from least to most.
~Developing language for comparing quantities (more, most, less, fewer, least).
