This The Pull of Gravity (level f) guided reading book with lesson plan includes: Guided Reading Color Label (front cover x1) This is a quick way to match the book’s demands to what students can generally handle.. The overall goal is to use the level/color to pick books for several smaller groups. To qualify for a certain level, a student is expected to read a book from that level with about 90–94% accuracy. If a student is consistently accurate and understands, move up a level. If the student is struggling at that level, drop down and add more support. Each student will improve at completely different rates, but it is generally one of the best ways to check progress across the class. DOWNLOAD THE CATALOG TO VIEW ALL GUIDED READING BOOKS AVAILABLE (SORTED LEVELS A-Z) Pre-Reading Question (x1) Teacher asks the prompt aloud, can be while showing the cover or first page. Students share what they already know, or make educated guesses from the cover. Prompt them to use the target vocabulary. Write some of their responses on the board to look back at during the reading. Vocabulary Words (x5) Introduce the five words, best doing it one at a time. Start by saying it, while students repeat and then see if anyone knows what it means before reading further. Read through the meaning and try to briefly connect each word to a picture or gesture so it’s meaningful. Ask students to flip through the book pages and point to where they see each of the vocabulary words. While reading the book pause upon coming across one of the vocab words or read the sentence twice to make sure students understand the word has appeared. Optional: Ask students to raise hands whenever they see/hear one of the new words. Guided Reading Pages (x10) Check the book snapshot (below) for: primary topic - do you need to prep extra reading or intro materials on this? what is taught best - decide on 1-2 bullets to focus on, use the prompt or words provided here for best results. learning goals - what you are checking for students to be able to do after the session, elicit answers using prompts or words provided. key vocabulary (see section above). questions overview - so you know what is coming up and if you need to prep extra materials to assist understanding. Run the lesson You may have already looked at a few of the pages together, but you can show them some of the pictures again first to set meaning. Depending on how much time you have and how familiar your students are with guided reading class, you may want to read the book aloud first with the group first. Students whisper or partner read, while you listen in. If time, do it as a group, one student reading a page each. Use the guided page’s prompts to coach: “Check the picture / does it make sense?” “Point under the words / try the first sound” “Reread the sentence smoothly”. Try to focus more on one student per session (rotating every time), so you can work out if they are ready to move up or need to move down a level. Comprehension Questions (back cover x3) This is your way to check that students didn’t just say the words, but actually understood the text. First, let students answer by pointing to the page/picture and saying a short sentence. After any answer, follow with: “Show me where you found that in the text.” In bigger groups, have partners answer first (10–20 seconds), then call on 2–3 students to share.

Shows that gravity pulls things down and toward the Earth . Uses everyday examples (ball, leaves, water, rocks, sand, air) to explain gravity’s effects. Connects gravity to size/strength by stating that big things have a strong pull (Earth). Extends the idea beyond Earth by stating gravity is in space and pulls the moon . Learning Goals Students will identify that gravity is a force that is everywhere. Students will describe how gravity pulls things down and toward the Earth. Students will give examples from the text of things gravity pulls or keeps in place. Students will explain what the text says about the Earth and “strong pull.” Students will answer questions about gravity using details from the book. Key Vocabulary From the Text gravity — a pull that makes things go down. force — a push or a pull. toward — moving closer to something. space — the place above Earth. mountain — a very high hill of land. Discussion Prompts Pre-reading question: What do you think makes things fall down to the ground? Comprehension questions: What does the book say gravity is? Comprehension questions: What does gravity pull things toward? Comprehension questions: Name one thing the book says gravity keeps in place. Printing Tips 1.

Body coverings can help animals stay warm (thick fur and feathers that trap heat). Some animals use body fat for warmth (blubber acts like a “warm blanket” and keeps cold water from reaching the body). Animals can use behaviors to stay warm (penguins huddle close and share body heat; some animals go underground; some sit in the sun). Learning Goals Explain why animals must stay warm to live in snow and ice. Describe how thick fur helps keep warm air near an animal’s skin. Describe how blubber helps animals stay warm, including in icy water. Describe how feathers help birds stay warm by trapping heat. Identify actions animals take to stay warm (huddling, going into a burrow, sitting in the sun). Key Vocabulary From the Text arctic — very cold, snowy place. blubber — thick fat under skin that helps keep warm. feathers — soft bird covering that helps trap heat. huddle — stand very close together in a group. burrow — a deep hole an animal digs to go underground. Discussion Prompts Pre-reading question: What are some ways animals might stay warm when it is very cold? Comprehension questions: Why must animals stay warm to live in snow and ice? Comprehension questions: How does blubber help a seal swim in the icy ocean? Comprehension questions: What do penguins do in a group to stay warm? Printing Tips 1.

Mental Math Games: Number Sense Subitizing Flash Cards 5 Ways!

Mental Math Games: Number Sense Subitizing Flash Cards 5 Ways!
Math, Early Math, Counting, Numbers, Multiplication and Division, Multiplication, Kindergarten, Grade 1, 2, 3, Centers, Activities, Games

This unique set of 40 subitizing flashcards encourages your students to practice a vital mental math skill: subitizing, which is instantly recognizing how many there are in small groups of items and then using that knowledge for counting larger numbers! It’s a fun way to also practice early multiplication skills and learn math facts- by mentally counting equal groups in a visual display. Finally, it's an easy and simple routine to foster students' number sense. It makes a great math centre to use all year long in multiple ways! There are two unique cards for each number value from 1-20: 40 cards in all! Ways to Use: 1) Traditional Flashcards: Hold up a flashcard and ask your student to let you know how many items there are using their mental counting skills. 2) Memory Game: Spread mixed-up pairs of cards facedown on the table (you could use from 5-20 pairs, based on your students’ ages and abilities). Students will take turns, flip two cards over, and look for pairs of cards that have the same value. They continue playing as you would a standard memory matching game. 3) Line Them Up: Have your students work individually or in pairs to line up one set of cards with values from 1-20. 4) One More, One Less: One student shows a single card. Their partner can search through the rest of the cards to find one that is worth one more and a card that is worth one less. 5) Explain Your Counting: Have your students use the included worksheet to explain how they mentally count the items on one of the cards. For example, "I see 4 groups of 4 and one more." What's Included: 12 Page PDF- Ready to Print and Use! Teacher Instructions (for five different games and activities) Student Worksheet for "Explain Your Counting" 10 Pages of Flashcards

Labels and names help people stay organized and find the right item (a bin labeled “Toys,” a library label that says “Fiction.”). Labels can keep people safe and help them make careful choices (a sign that says “Wet Floor.”). Reading labels helps every day because labels “give facts and solve mysteries.” Learning Goals Students will explain what the book says a label is like and what it gives (clues, information, facts). Students will describe how a label tells what is inside an object using an example from the text. Students will identify how labels help keep spaces organized and clean using details from the text. Students will explain how a label can help keep people safe, using the “Wet Floor” sign example. Students will describe how names on items (like an envelope) help people know who something is for. Key Vocabulary From the Text clue — something that helps you figure something out. information — facts that help you know something. object — a thing you can see or touch. envelope — paper cover that holds a letter. mysteries — things you are trying to figure out. Discussion Prompts Pre-reading question: What labels do you notice that give you important information? Comprehension questions: What does the book say a label is like? Which label in the book helps keep the room clean? According to the book, how do labels help every day? Printing Tips 1.
