LITERACY focus standards

MATH focus standards

CCSS: RL1.3 Students will describe

setting, characters, and major events in a
story using key details.

We are focusing on counting strategies, the proper

use of Math tools, and sums of 10. (NBT.1/OA.6)

We use a Retell Rope to identify and describe a

storys setting, characters, problem, major events from
the beginning, middle, end, and the solution. Students
should be able to orally tell you about these story
elements.

We build concepts using the C-R-A model. We begin

with concrete models, then use pictures, and finally
numbers, symbols, and equations.

CCSS: RF1.1a Students will recognize the

distinguishing features of a sentence.
(Capital letter, end punctuation, makes sense)

New High Frequency Words

are given every week for your
student to practice. These

memorized, and not for
sounding-out. The students
are to read them as quick as
a snap by each Friday.
