Writer's Workshop

SMART Room: Turkey Poke...poking holes with a push pin.
Math: Number Order
Today we are going to talk about ordering numbers.  First I want to lay my number cards (1 - 5) out in order. Lay the cards out randomly and use the math vocabulary as you rearrange them in order. “2 is more than 1, 3 is fewer than 5.”  Embedding this language will help students contextualize this vocabulary for future use.  I want to be sure I put them in the right order, so I will need to go back and recount to make sure they are right. Now I want to start building trains of cubes to match the number I have.  So for 1, I will just lay down one cube.  For 2, I know that 2 is 1 more, so I will snap 2 cubes together. I know that 3 is one more than 2, so I will need 3 cubes.   Continue until you have trains laid out for 1 5. 
Whole Group Explore: Today, you and your partner will make number trains for 1 - 5.   You will get to be a little creative. Instead of using cubes, your partner and you will use leaves. You will color and cut the leaves out and create a leaf train.     
Per Pair: Leaf black line Number cards (1-5) 9 x 12 construction paper 
Student Application: Students will complete their own leaf train response sheet to match the one they created with their partner. 
Regroup and Share: Partner talk~ look at your partner’s paper and your own paper.  Talk with your partner about how your papers are the same.  Tell each other how they are different.
