DAILY 5
Math:New Concept: Today we are going to talk again about more and fewer. This time I am going to take one of the number cards out and snap that many cubes together. Now when I put them behind my back my partner will pick a hand. This time we will put our pieces on a ten-frame and place it to the side of the "More/Fewer" spinner. We will use our math talk card, then spin. Whoever wins that spin will get a counter.
Whole Group Explore: Now you will get a chance to play this game with your partner. Remember to play fair and be a good partner. Celebrate with your partner by saying, “Great job! You won that one!”
Student Application: Students will practice writing 8, 9, 10
Students will color the items in the set that have fewer brown and more red.

ScienceScientists Have Tools to Hold Liquid
Connect: Remember when we said that we can use the index in a nonfiction book to find information about tools that a scientist uses to see things more clearly?
Teach: Today I am going to show some other tools that a scientist has. These are tools that he uses to hold liquids. One of these tools is called a test tube. Test tubes are often used by scientists called chemists. What do you think a scientist would use a test tube for? Chemists mix liquids together in test tubes. Scientists also use beakers. What do you think a scientist would use a beaker for? Give children time to discuss. Beakers are often used when liquids need to be stirred or poured. It would be harder to pour or stir liquid in a test tube!
Active Engagement: Now it’s your turn. You are going to be a scientist! Now, let’s play a game. I am going to read you an experiment, you tell me which tool you think the scientist should use. (test tube, beaker) Read each of the experiment cards. Invite the children to move over to their elbow partner and decide which tool would be best for the scientist to use.
Link: Remember boys and girls, today and everyday good scientists use tools to help mix, pour and stir liquids. Reveal the anchor chart for Science Tools: Scientists have tools to hold liquids.
