 Writer's Workshop: By popular demand...Beat the Teacher!
Your children love this game to practice writing our sight words. It's something you could do at home too. How many times can you write a designated sight word in 20 seconds, 15 seconds?
 Handwriting: lowercase h & b (We didn't get to this yesterday.)

 Math: Fair Share
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 with paper cookies. First spin the spinner and count out that many cubes. Then share them equally.
Student Application: Students will share the bones equally between the dogs

 Time for Kids: Best Inventions
 The robins will be returning and singing to us...a sure sign of spring! Today, the kids will learn more about the life cycle of a robin, what it looks like and sounds like. We will make a robin and dance with robin puppets we make.
