Problem and Solution, Adding Details, and 2 Digit Addition

Happy Friday Friends! Just FYI I have posted all of my common core ELA and Math assessments in my TPT shop with versions that do not include standard posters at a cheaper price. I starting thinking my district does not require us to post our standards and not everyone will need them so there you have it. Search my shop for assessments and locate the one without the posters. There are various grade and subjects available.

 

In my last post I shared the first of our week that included nouns, main idea, and money. I'm here to finish up the week with what we did yesterday and today.

 

We reviewed problem and solution by reading A Weekend with Wendell by Kevin Henkes and completing these problem and solution puzzle pieces. Grab yours for free {HERE} Not sure why my picture is sideways because it is not saved that way on my computer and it is refusing to rotate. Hmmmm??

We are working on adding details to our writing so I drew a blank rectangle and had the students each add one detail. You always have to have that one student that messes it up for everyone. He drew a big X on the front of the house and when I asked him why he just shrugged his shoulders like he would rather be anywhere else in the world but here....End Rant. Then we wrote a paragraph about our house using the details we added. The students did one on their own next. They wanted to start with a snowman. Don't ask me why. I am not a fan of snow or cold weather and am kinda bummed that winter and snow are both right around the corner. But hey, it's their writing right?

We started double digit addition and they caught on pretty fast. We played this double digit addition spinner game. The kids loved this! Get this little freebie pack {HERE}

 

 

Today we continued on with problem and solution. We listened to the story 50 Below Zero by Robert Munsch. Then we made this problem and solution pencil. We listed the characters, setting, problem and solution. You can get the templates (each piece in a separate link) by clicking {HERE| and HERE}

We played another double digit addition game in math. Click {HERE} to pick that up.

Check back next week to see what we get into!
