Wednesday, March 23  
 Popcorn Word: word

 Language Arts: Using intonation to read with expression. To emphasize this, I will read the nursery rhyme Little Bo Peep in a monotone voice and then reread it again using proper intonation. The kids will try it with me too. We will then practice our parts in People at School.

Handwriting: lowercase m & words with m

 Writer's Workshop: The children will write get-well cards for Alivia in Mrs. Jost's class.

Math: More Work with Equal

New Concept: Today we are going to continue to practice sharing so that everyone gets the same amount. This time we will try it with a bigger group. I went to my parents house for dinner last week. My mom had these wonderful little chocolates.  We decided to share them equally. There were 5 of us. Count out 20 cubes and ask a few students to pretend to be your family members. Repeat the process from the previous day of handing one cube to each of the 5 people in your “family.” Ask: How many did they each get? 
Whole Group Explore: Today you will work with your partner like you did yesterday.  You will need to share them equally with your partner.  We will pretend that these snap cubes are cookies.   
First roll the dice (spin the spinner) and count out that many cubes then share them equally.
Student Application: Students will share bones equally with some dogs.
