In math, today I gave the students a Brace Map with the number 5. They had to draw some red leaves and yellow leaves. They had to have five altogether.
Bridge Map
We went back to a Bridge Map to show Phonemic relationships. We worked on this Thinking Map for many days.
On the white board, I wrote the letters of the alphabet. We came up with fall words (that we are still working on). I read the Dr. Seuss book.
We attempted to make the words connect to fall and make sense. We are still working on some letters. I went to the first-grade classroom to see if they could help us.
The kids outlined with a sharpie and colored in with a crayon or colored pencil. They had to shade the background.
Circle Map for Ways to Make 5
Our Favorite October Books
The students worked together in small groups. They had to record the characters and events that happened in the story. Before sending students off, we took a picture walk of each story.
I want to come and sit in your classroom for a few days. :)
