                                      DAILY 5
We are launching 'DAILY 5' in our classroom today. We begin by working on 'Read to Self' where the kids read books by looking at the pictures, words, or retelling. We will focus on retelling familiar stories and I will provide the children with copies of familiar books so they can practice this strategy.The children will work on building stamina by trying to read to themselves uninterrupted for 3 minutes. We try to reach that goal 3 times a day then add a minute on each time until we are successful for 7-10 minutes. Watch for a letter describing DAILY 5 to come home with your child today or tomorrow.
Check out this informative blogpost (October 5, 2016 post) about the 3 ways children read here
Math: Decomposing Number 7
New Concept: Today we will play match me, but we will be using the number 7. I am going to use two colors to make 7. So I am
going to use blue and orange cubes. If I start with 2 blue, I will need 5 orange to make 7, because 2 and 5 make 7. I need to be sure that I go back and count each cube to be sure I have 7 in all. Count with me as I touch each cube. Now, can someone help me match it?  Now, I want to make 7 a different way. I can start with 4 blue, how many more do I need to make 7? Provide additional examples of decomposing the number 7.
Whole Group ExploreYou will be building the number 7 in lots of different ways. Once you build it, your partner will match it. See how many different ways you can make 7.
Student Application: Students will practice writing the number 7.
Students will use two different colored crayons to make 7 in a variety
of ways.
