Writer's Workshop: Edit Sentences
We are close to publishing our very first book as writers as this will be our last day of
editing/revising our book. Today I will teach the children that good writers reread their sentences to make sure they have a capital letter, finger spaces, punctuation and that their words are in a straight line. They will use the Writer's Checklist (see photo) to check their work.
Today, the kids will focus on subtracting one with the use of a vertical number line. Using the Ten in a Bed poem, the kids will raise 10 fingers and subtract one-by-one to notice that the number is getting less by one each time. The goal is to have the kids continue to notice the connection between less and subtraction. We will continue to use the vertical number line to demonstrate a subtraction problem like this: 5 birds were in a tree. 3 birds flew away. How many birds are left? We will find the number 5 and swoop down 3 spots to see there are 2 birds left.
