Essential Questions: Language Arts: Use prefixes and suffixes to determine the meaning of words Use context to determine the relevant meaning of unfamiliar words or multiple meaning words Identify and use common words that are opposite (antonyms) or similar (synonyms) in meaning Poetry Describe how rhyme, rhythm, and repetition interact to create images in poetry.

Id the elements of dialogue & use them in informal plays Establish purposes for reading selected texts based upon own and others desired outcome to enhance comprehension. (to be informed, understand, interpret, solve problems, entertained, provide enjoyment) Establish a purpose for reading selected text Ask literal questions of text (questions Before, During, After Reading; Literal - who, what, when, where, why, & how) Ask relevant questions, seek clarification and locate facts and details about stories and other texts and support answers with evidence from text. Monitor and adjust comprehension Monitor comprehension making corrections & adjustments when understanding breaks down Make inferences about text and use textual evidence to support understanding Make connections, retell important events in stories in logical order Use ideas (e.g. key words, and foreshadowing) to make and confirm predictions Write a poem Write a short story Write a letter Recognize and use apostrophes and contractions

2 Use prepositions and prepositional phrase Use complete subject verb agreement Use capitalization in salutations and closing of letter Fluency Goal: 80 wpm Math: Use concrete models of hundreds, tens, and ones to represent a given whole number (up to 999) in various ways (base ten blocks, bundles of sticks; construct base 10 relationships to show regrouping) use place value to read, write, and describe the value of whole numbers to 99 (standard form, written notation, expanded form) Model addition and subtraction of two digit number with objects, pictures, words, and numbers (whole # s 0-99; various representations to solve + and with inverse operations Select addition or subtraction to solve problems using two-digit numbers, whether or not regrouping is necessary (with/without regrouping; ID extraneous information; concrete/pictorials/abstract representations; number sentences; = a the beginning & end of sentence, terms-less than, more than, greater than, fewer than; multi-step problems) Model, create, and describe multiplication situations in which equivalent sets of concrete objects are joined (no longer than 9 groupings; arrays, equal groups justify for reasonableness; real -life situations) Generate a list of paired numbers based on a real-life situation such as number of tricycles related to number of wheels (horizontal/vertical tables Identify patterns in a list of related number pairs based on a real-life situation and extend the list (verbal & written description of pattern) Identify, describe, and extend repeating & additive patterns to make predictions and solve problems (whole number patterns repeating, additive; real object patterns-beads, paper clips, geometric figures, pattern blocks, color tiles) Use concrete models to represent and name fractional parts of a whole object (with denominators of 12 or less). (Area Models-fraction circles, fraction bars, pattern blocks, color tiles; Linear Models-fraction bars, paper folding, number lines). Use concrete models to represent and name fractional parts of a set of objects (with denominators of 12 or less)- (introduce fraction names) Use concrete models to determine if a fractional part of a whole is closer to 0, ½, or 1 (tactile experiences using concrete models & 0, ½, 1 as benchmarks; vocabulary for fraction names) use data to describe events as more likely or less likely such as drawing a certain color crayon from a bag of seven red crayons and three green crayons (variety of real-life applications/experiments; random number generators-spinners, color tiles, counters, coins, show given data through lists, tables, models) ID Math in everyday situations Solve problems by understanding problems, making & carrying out a plan, & evaluating solution for reasonableness Select or develop an appropriate problem solving plan or strategy including drawing a picture, looking for a pattern, systematic guessing and checking, or acting it out in order to solve a problem. Use tools such as real objects, manipulatives, and technology to solve problems. Explain and record observations using objects, words, pictures, numbers, and technology;

3 Science: Observe, describe and record patterns & describe patterns in the sky Explore the processes of the Water Cycle Investigate effects on an object by increasing or decreasing amounts of light and heat Plan and conduct descriptive investigations such as how organisms grow Identify the basic needs of plants Observe, record and compare how the physical characteristics of plants help them meet their basic needs Identify what a scientist do Social Studies Identify contributions of historical figures Identify several sources of information about a given period or event Describe various evidence of the same time period using primary sources Describe how weather patterns and seasonal patterns affect activities and settlement patterns Describe how natural resources and natural hazards affect activities and settlement patterns Identify the characteristics of different communities Identify ways in which people have modified the physical environment Identify positive and negative consequences of human modification of the physical environment Identify ways people can conserve and replenish natural resources Health: Identify causes of disease other than germs such as allergies and heart disease Explain way in which germs are transmitted, methods of preventing the spread of germs, and the importance of immunization Explain how the body provides protection from disease Apply practices to control the spread of germs in daily life such as hand washing and skin care Describe strategies for protecting the environment and the relationship between the environment and individual health such as air pollution and ultra-violet rays Identify personal responsibilities as a family member in promoting and practicing health behaviors
