Sight Word Focus: she
Reading Workshop: The kids are learning how to make inferences using what they see in pictures and read in text. They will learn to comprehend the meaning in text by making connections to themselves with the pictures and words.
Reading Strategy: Chunky Monkey
Writer's Workshop: Names and Places Use Capitals
Handwriting: Sentences (Capitals, Spacing, Periods)
Math: Count by 5's
I will read the story, Tally O'Malley by Stuart Murphy and focus on counting by 5’s and understanding the use of tally marks. The kids will then get to apply their skills in using tally marks by taking inventory of the classroom. They will walk around the classroom and take inventory of the items listed on the sheet. The kids will continue to work with counting by 5’s and using tallies to do so. Then using popsicle sticks, they will create sets of tally marks to 20. After the sets of tally marks have been made, they will go back through and count the sets; 5, 10, 15, 20 and mark them with pictures of hands.
