Lesson Plans for the week of September 2-5

Lesson Plans

Spelling: The next spelling test will be September 5th. The spelling words and dictation sentences are not graded the 1^st nine weeks but IT IS VERY IMPORTANT to establish this routine of studying and testing.

Spelling words are: mom, ox, hot, hop, pop, pot, lock, mop, got, rock, on, are

Reading: Our story we will read is, “The Big Blue Ox.”  The genre is fantasy. We will learn about the short /o/ as in hop and words with a plural –s as in pots. We will continue to identify the characters and setting of a story. In language, we will learn how to identify and write declarative (telling) sentences.

High Frequency Words (Students are supposed to recognize these words in 3 seconds or less): at, be, this, have, from, or, one, had, by, word

Math: We will continue adding numbers. Our focus will be making numbers and adding 3 numbers together (Example 2+3+1=6.) We will use the strategy of counting on or the number line as a tool.

 

Social Science: We will start a unit on how items are balanced and how items move (roll, spin, etc.)
