Chicks and Bunnies ... Using informational text for distance learning!

This is the ideal resource to share with your students with either Power Point or Slides. There is also a link in the resource for Google Classroom.

**Note:

The Distant Learning resources are meant to encourage lessons online. They are not editable and students cannot write on them.

Students use notebooks or paper pencil.

I have worked and worked to fix sharing the link but it continues to break down so the easiest way to get the programs:

1.Open you zip file

2.If you wish to use Google go to your Google Docs and upload the Slides.  These can then be put into Google Classroom.

3.If you are sending a Power Point presentation open the PP.

I use Google Classroom and in the note part welcome students and share what we are going to be doing today.  I include links to stories and videos about the topic.
See details here.

The resource includes:

Informational text about Rabbits and Chicks

Assignment for using text to complete are, have, can statements.

Writing Life Cycle Sequence

Assignment using pictures to write a sequence for life cycle (first, next, then...)

Definitions

Using text to write definitions related to bunnies and chicks

Math...Patterns

I feel these slides about Bunnies and Chicks will be the perfect springboard to excite your class about a day of reading, writing, creating and practicing math. 

If you are still into paper or sending PDF's to your class this is ideal.

Mathematic Freebies!

Yep stop by each day this week for a freebie for math.

Today we will focus on "pattern" building.  The freebie here is perfect for back to school.

It can be used as partner activities, games or center use.  I hope you will enjoy it!  Michele

Patterns...and a "peek freebie"!!

Just finished this packet on patterns.  I have decided this summer to build packets for my math centers as well as individual practice.  I am encouraging partner work for communication and building math discussion! I finished "Number Sense" last week and gave you a sample now here is the "Patterns" packet and a peek freebie!!
