Monday
When you are reading informational text, you should pay close attention to the illustrations and photographs on each page. Everything on a page helps the reader get an even better understanding of the topic.
Illustrations and photographs help readers visualize (see) what the author is describing or explaining through the words they write.
Let’s practice. We will learn that lungfish live in water during the rainy season. I can see and learn that lungfish live in water in the part of the photograph that I circled.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you read the two informational texts this week, remember to stop and analyze the photographs or illustrations to help you understand what the author is trying to tell or teach you.

Name:
What Happened to Pluto? Written by Nari Carter Illustrated by Hollie Hibbert Lexile®: 440L, 96 words
Earth is a planet. Mars is a planet.
Pluto was a planet. Now it is not.
Pluto was the farthest and smallest planet in our solar system.
Then, scientists said it wasn’t a planet. So, what’s up with that?
It’s not that Pluto dropped out of space. Pluto is still out there.
Scientists just changed their ideas about what a planet is. Now, Pluto is called a
dwarf planet.
Dwarf planets are too small to be planets.
Scientists believe there are other dwarf planets in our solar system.
Maybe you will find the next dwarf planet.

Directions on using this Daily Routines Document in supporting
“Fluently adding and subtracting within 5.” Fluently means to perform mathematical problems accurately and quickly. Below are different routines to support the fluency needed to master fluently adding and subtracting within 5. Example for planning: Each routine should take about 5-10 minutes. Choose a routine that would work for about a week so that it becomes a “routine” for the child.
Addition within 5
Sound of Numbers Parent/Teacher: Close your eyes and listen for the cubes being dropped into the container. How many sounds did you hear? Student: Listen and MENTALLY count the number of sounds you hear. Example: Drop 2 cubes wait and then drop 1 more for the number of the day 2 + 1 = 3. Notes for Activity: The teacher will drop a cube into the container one at a time until the amount desired is reached. Link with more information: https://vimeo.com/127606721 Questions to elicit student responses: How many did you hear drop into the bucket? Is that our starting number? How many more did you hear drop into the bucket? How many do we have all together?
Subitizing in Song Parent/Teacher: Let’s count along with the song. Making equations up to 5. Student: The ideal response will be to use an equation to find the total number of dots that are on the screen. Notes for Activity: The following is a suggested video using subitizing: https://ocps.instructuremedia.com/embed/4d280e0f-9304-4c9c-b238-a98b7cc4a740
Subitizing Flash Cards Parent/Teacher: Quickly show students an arrangement of counters using dot flash cards. Ask students how many they see and how they see it. Student: The ideal responses will be to use an equation to find the total number of dots that are on the flash card. For example, I see 5. 2 counters on top and 3 on the bottom 2 + 3 = 5. Notes for Activity: This activity assists students in subitizing different arrangements of numbers and reinforces fluency of addition to 5. Students should have 3 – 5 seconds to visualize the amount shown.
Five or Ten Frame Flash Parent/Teacher: Quickly show students an arrangement of counters using a five frame or a ten frame. Ask students how many they see and how they see it. Student: The ideal responses will identify the number with a description of how they see it. For example, I see 5. 2 counters on top and 3 on the bottom 2 + 3 = 5. Notes for Activity: This activity assists students in subitizing different arrangements of numbers and reinforces counting. Students should have 3 - 5 seconds to visualize the amount shown.
Subtraction within 5
Sound of Numbers Parent/Teacher: Close your eyes and listen for the cubes being dropped into the container and I will say how many I will remove. How many are left in the container? Student: Listen and MENTALLY count the number of sounds you hear dropped and subtract the amount that was stated. Students will voice how many are left in the container. Example: Drop 2 cubes wait and then say “taking 1”. Notes for Activity: Questions to elicit student responses: How many did you hear drop into the bucket? Is that our starting number? How many did you hear me say that I took from the bucket? How many do we have in the bucket?
Subitizing in Song Parent/Teacher: Let’s count along with the song. Making subtraction expressions from the given amount of objects. Student: Ideal response will be to create a subtraction expression from the total number of dots that are on the screen. Notes for Activity: The following is a suggested video using subitizing: https://ocps.instructuremedia.com/embed/4d280e0f-9304-4c9c-b238-a98b7cc4a740
Subitizing Flash Cards Parent/Teacher: Quickly show students an arrangement of counters using dot flash cards (maximum would be 5). Ask students. how many they see? How do you see them? What happens when __ is removed? Student: Example: I see 5 counters on top and 3 on the bottom. When 2 is removed, I have 3 left. Notes for Activity: This activity assists students in subitizing different arrangements of numbers and reinforces the number sense to 5 and supporting their fluency of subtracting. Students should have 3 – 5 seconds to visualize the amount shown.
Five or Ten Frame Flash Parent/Teacher: Quickly show students an arrangement of counters using a five frame or a ten frame (maximum would be 5). Ask students. how many they see? How do you see them? What happens when __ is removed? Student: Example: I see 5 counters on top and 3 on the bottom. When 2 is removed, I have 3 left. Notes for Activity: This activity assists students in subitizing different arrangements of numbers and reinforces counting. Students should have 3 - 5 seconds to visualize the amount shown. This activity assists students in subitizing different arrangements of numbers and reinforces counting, number sense to 5 and supporting their fluency of subtracting. Students should have 3 - 5 seconds to visualize the amount shown.

Design a Commemorative Stamp
A commemorative stamp is a postage stamp that honors a person, group of people, or special event. Postage
stamps are used to mail letters in the United States. Throughout the history of the United States Postal Service,
artists such as Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, Edward Hopper, Georgia O’Keeffe, Andy Warhol, and many
others have had their artwork featured on postage stamps. Postage stamps are just one way in which artwork is
viewed throughout a community and share important messages.
YOUR TASK
Who are in the people in your community that are working to make it a better place? Teachers, doctors, nurses,
scientists, police officers, firefighters, etc. Your task is to create a commemorative stamp to honor someone who
is making a difference in your community. What symbols can you use in your stamp to represent your message?
Be sure to include the country and value of your stamp. Color your stamp with crayons, markers, colored pencils,
etc. Don't forget to use good craftsmanship so that your work is neat.
Common Symbols
Copyright Corner
Did you know that USPS postage stamps are copyrighted? That means that people can NOT copy the artwork legally.
Did you know that your artwork is also copyrighted the second you finish it? That means no one can reproduce your artwork with-out your permission. Why do you think copyright is important for artists? __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
