Writer's Workshop: Adding Details
If we get to this lesson today, the kids will learn how adding more details to their illustration will make it more interesting to look at.

  Social Studies: Holidays Around the World
We've made a lot of stops around the globe to learn holidays & traditions that differ from what we may do. Today, our final destination is Canada. Be sure to check out the suitcase & passport your child will bring home today! 

KinderMath: About 17
The kids will work with their partners to fill a teen number ten frame board to represent a teen number. I will show the number 17 and the kids fill their ten frame board to match. I will also do this with the numbers 11-16. Next, the kids will show their partner a hide ten card set and their partner will state what they see...“10 and 5, 15!”

Finally, the kids will be using the Teen Number “and some more” cards to quiz their partners.
