Forty-First Day of School

In Writing today, we brainstormed topics for our new informational unit. We will be writing "all about" essay. For the parents participating at home, the brainstorming process for this segment is for the writer to simply make a list of topics which they know a lot about. For example, the writer may feel they know a lot about panda bears:

  • Giant panda bears have black and white fur.
  • Pandas eat bamboo for approximately 10-16 hours per day.
  • Pandas can swim and climb.
  • Giant pandas live in China.
Math application problem (this story was very tricky for us do to reading comprehension levels even after explanation):

    May and Kay are twins. Whatever May has, Kay has too. May has 4 dolls. How many dolls     do they have altogether? Kay has 3 stuffed animals. How many stuffed animals do they            have together?
