Wednesday, April 15  
Phonics: Blends-pl
 Language Arts: Using the poster Follow the Rules, the kids will identify cause and effect in the picture and text as well as make connections to deepen their understanding of the text. We will also cue in on signal words that signify cause and effect. (because, so, since, then, if, etc.)

 Writer's Workshop:  Informational Report...What ways do people show healthy habits? The kids will write about something they do to stay healthy.
 Handwriting: lowercase q and x
 A storybook reader is scheduled for 10:10 to read This is the Teacher. 
Math: Counting by Tens Using a Ten Frame
This is a script of what I will say...

Dump a pile of snap cubes in a pile on the floor. If I wanted to count all of these snap cubes I know I could, but I think it would be confusing. I am going to use a 10 frame to help me keep track of the cubes I am counting. (Ask How many boxes are on this 10 frame?) Right… 10. So if I fill the whole 10 frame, I know I will have 10. How many 10 frames will I need to reach 100? (Count by 10s to show that you will need 10-10 frames.) I am going to use these 10 frames to help me keep track while I count. After I fill up one 10 frame, I will write how many I have all together. I think I can do this another way. I can use the 10 frame to help me count out 10, but then I can scoop them into a pile and label the pile with 10 (20, 30, 40…).
The kids will practice with a partner building 10 piles of 10.
