Reading
Retell any story by using
“Somebody...
Wanted...
But...
So...
Then...”
To your family.
The following video shows a teacher demonstrating this strategy using the movie "Finding Nemo." Please disregard her instructions at the end for her students (she is not a teacher at our school).
Language Arts
Use an adjective to describe a character and give proof from the story.
Example: Chrysanthemum was embarrassed because her name was so long!
Math
Use a familiar two or three digit number (some examples: house number, birthday) and draw it using base ten blocks.
Social Studies
Take a picture or draw a picture of someone in the community that exemplifies good citizenship.
Math
The answer is 52.
Write a math story to go with this answer.
For example, if the answer was 12, the story might sound like this:
My cat caught 4 mice on Monday and 8 mice on Tuesday. How many mice did my cat catch altogether?
