Social Studies/Literacy
Review that five different ways that non-fiction texts are ORGANIZED. Which organization do you think your Many Gifts textbook uses the most often?

Don't confuse these with the FEATURES of informational texts:

Tomorrow you will be summarizing "Have You Seen My Umbrella?" Hopefully you made annotations (little notes) on the story to help you!


Math
We started our unit on Addition and Subtraction with mental math strategies. We have some great thinkers in the class. Roll 2, 3, 4, or 5 dice and practice adding the total in your head.
Here's some mental math questions for practice:


45 + 25                 39 + 26               71 + 18                57 + 24               49 + 49


Remember to practice a few different strategies.
