DAILY 5
 Writer's Workshop: Day 2 of our reindeer reports 
Math: Whole/ Part-Part
New Concept: We have been working on putting numbers together and breaking them apart. I want to try it a different way. I am going to give you a whole number and one of the parts. You have to figure out the other part. "I had 5 pumpkins. 3 of them were tall. Some were not tall. How many were not tall?"
  Several examples will be provided using the whole/ part-part mat. 
Whole Group Explore: Now you will work with a partner while I tell you some stories and you build it on your mat.
 • I saw 7 bats. 3 of them were brown. The rest were black.  How many were black?
 • There were 8 scarecrows in a field. 5 of them had red shirts. The rest had blue shirts. How many had blue shirts?
• In the field there were 9 deer. 5 of them were bucks and the rest were does. How many were does?
 Student Application: Students will practice completing their whole/part/part frames.
