First Grade
E-learning
MATH and READING: i-Ready math lessons.
Students will practice math lessons as prescribed by their prior diagnostic tests.
Students will spend between 15-20 minutes on their lessons.
*I am looking for about an hour to an hour in a half total for the week.
Students will complete their lesson on their own. All students know how to log in and complete work on their own. Lessons are tailored to the students abilities, parent support should be minimal, technical support only.
LESSON DAY 6
MONDAY, 3/30
RELIGION:
Lesson 6 I Care for Myself p34-38.In Family Life red book. Learn about the importance of caring for the body. Identify ways to handle unsafe situations. Read p 34-38 and complete the activities. Worksheet pages 6A & 6B. (I have 3 stapled packets of Easter, Holy Week and Stations of the Cross) These can be over the next 2 weeks. I am thinking that the Stations of the Cross coloring pages and activities should be done this week.The Easter and Holy Week packet will be for next week.
SCIENCE:
HUMANS COPY ANIMALS AND PLANTS DAY1VOCABULARY: STRUCTURE, FUNCTION,PARENT,OFFSPRING,INVENTION, ALIKE, DIFFERENT, COMPARE,CARE, YOUNG.
DAY ONE: HUMANS COPY ANIMALS AND PLANTS (1-LS1-1).
For this activity, students do a matching activity where they try to match a man made object with the animal it likely mimicked. Humans get lots of ideas from animals and plants, and use those ideas to solve human problems. This activity is best done in small groups where students can discuss, debate, and defend their ideas through discussion. After the groups have discussed, bring the class together for a classroom discussion. Be sure to use the vocabulary word “structure” when discussing the animal parts that inspired the inventions. Also discuss what function the invention is serving; Cut cards apart. Mix up cards. Then match human made items with the animal that gave the designers the ideas.
Structure the animals parts that inspired the inventions,and function is what the invention is serving. EX: for example, the hard coating on the bike helmet protects the head from injuries.
Complete ws HUMANS COPY ANIMALS AND PLANTS 2 SIDES.
Then watch a video that shares a few inventions inspired by nature. It may be a little over their heads, but I think they will get something out of it.

i-Ready math lessons 15 minutes
ELA: UNIT 6L
Book report for March should be complete for tomorrow 3/31.
Continue with the reading log until 4/8.
You should find a spelling list for unit 6 in the packet that was sent this weekend.(everyone should have it by Tuesday) I will add activities to do to practice using the words. Other ideas for practice are using those refrigerator magnetics and a cookie and sheet. Practice spelling the words. If you are brave shaving cream and a tray or cookie sheet and have them spell words into the shaving cream. If you happen to have sand, same thing.
Student workbook p14. Reviewing short vowels and patterns. (I put the red film Super Secret Reader in the package.) {I also added the next student workbook in the package too. Put that in a safe spot for later). What to know...
The vowels and words underneath are short vowel sounding words.
Notice the “u” shaped mark over the vowels is a mark used to show that a vowel is short. Students should trace the “u” mark and make the sound of the short vowel.
Short vowel rule: Explain that there is a rule that helps the reader know if the vowel sound is short in a word...When a word has only one vowel and ends in one or more consonants, the vowel is usually short.
On page 14 have the students identify the missing short vowel in the words. They can use the red film to help reveal the picture. As they do this have them identify the vowel and the number of consonants that follow. So what vowel sound do you get? Short.
Have the students find a story book and find a few words on a page or two that have one vowel and see if they can apply the rule for short vowels to the words.
*i-Ready lessons in math and reading continue to do 15-20 minutes each day for no more than 1 1/2 hours in a week.
3/31/20
Lesson 7 E-learning
RELIGION:
Lesson 7: I Care for Others p41-43. We will learn that each person is important. Read and complete the activities. Worksheet p 7A & 7B. Stations of the Cross packet continued.
I need to scan the worksheets. I will send them out shortly.
SCIENCE:
WHAT CAN YOU MAKE (if need be this can be a 2 day project, don’t stress out trying to finish it in one day)
Students will invent something that uses ideas from a plant or animal structure.
Need to identify a need that they may have.
Next, look to animals and plants for ideas. Make a blueprint or a plan.(Use a worksheet, What can you make? either side. Either plant or animal)
Finally, they will use various materials to create their invention. Paper towel rolls, cardboard, foil, clothespins, plastic wrap, paper bags, rubber bands, plastic utensils, paper plates, paper clips, straws, etc.
When finished take a picture.
SOCIAL STUDIES;
ENVIRONMENT: vocabulary:resources, renewable nonrenewable, environment.
Continue work on the booklet pages 4 &5.
2.Write: Think of 3 ways you can to help the Earth.
3. Complete worksheet Resources in my Environment.

TOPIC: 11-1 Subtracting Groups of TenChildren will subtract 10 from multiples of 10 in the range 10-90. Remember subtracting a group of 10 from groups of ten is similar to subtracting 1 from numbers less than 10.
If children try to write 2-6= as a subtraction problem, then remind them that the first number is the original number of items.(How many rods do you start with? 6. Where do you write the 6? (As the first number).
Complete the digital quick check online in Pearson Realize.
Watch the 11-1 visual learning online. Remember if you can’t get online the cartoon boxes on top are the same thing.
Complete the guided, independent and problem solving sections of the worksheet.
Complete either the workbook page reteaching and or practice 11-1. The enrichment page is assigned online.
ELA:U6L
Teaching long-vowel sounds
Student book p15-16.
A straight line above a vowel makes the vowel sound long. For example, when “a” is long, it says its name.
P15. Have the student look at the first row with the picture of the snake. Name the other pictures in the row. Ask which picture names have the same long sound as in snake. Tell them to circle that picture. Complete the rest of the page.
**The letter u stands for 2 slightly different long vowel sounds such as in the words fruit and in mule.
P16 practice distinguishing short and long vowel sounds.
Children will circle the picture in each row whose name has the same vowel sound as in the name of the picture shown at the beginning of the row.
Complete worksheet p 54 in the unit 6 packet. On this worksheet they are identifying what vowel sound, short or long,is represented in the picture. Then make a short or long vowel mark on the letter. (straight line for long vowel sound and a “u” mark over the vowel for a short vowel sound.
Lesson 8 4/1/20
RELIGION:
Lesson 8 Love Grows. P44-48. Love includes everyone. Read and complete p44-48. Worksheet p8A &8B. Stations of the Cross packet continued.

MATH:11-2 Subtracting tens on a hundred chart
Children will use a hundreds chart to subtract multiples of 10 from 2 digit numbers. Remember when subtracting tens from a 2 digit number, only the tens digit changes.
Sometimes children will go the wrong direction on the 100’s chart, show them that when you move down the hundred chart, the numbers are greater and when you move up, the numbers are lesser.
I will assign the Quick check online.
Also visual learning too.
Complete the guided practice, independent practice, and problem solving sections on the math sheet.
Homework complete either reteaching, practice workbook page and or online enrichment page.
ELA: U6 L 191
Introduce spelling words and CV pattern words.
Practice saying the following words until they are read smoothly. These words have one vowel and end in one or more consonants so the vowel sounds are short
O e
On cloth elf dress
Odd cross best fresh
Box strong shot chest stretch when
Student book p 17-19. So normally students will hear a song along with p 17. I tried getting onto one of the students accounts to see if I can get that to be played. They may need to just read and spell it on their own.
P 18 Learning about CV patterns.
**When a word has only one vowel and it is at the end of the word, the vowel is usually long. (CV) So look at the words in the yellow box on top of the page. Notice they follow CV pattern.
Rebus pictures take the place of a word. So for example in the first sentence the rebus stands for the word giant. ( this is a review, we have seen rebuses in our reading several times this year)
Read the sentences and identify the rebuses in the remaining sentences.
P19 tell children to read each speech balloon, find all the words that have only one vowel that’s at the end of the word, and mark the vowel as long. The word “the” doesn’t follow the rule.
