Some suggested activities to help review previously taught standards and to ensure readiness for 2nd grade are:Create flashcards with addition and subtraction facts to 10. Students must know these facts with automaticity.Solve a word problem or two daily from the attached file. Students must use the six steps to solving a word problem: (1. Read the problem. 2. Circle important numbers. 3. Box in key words/phrases that help you to identify the operation. 4. Underline the problem. 5. Sketch and solve. 6. Check your answer using another strategy.): Write narratives in which they recount two or more appropriately sequenced events, include some details regarding what happened, use temporal words to signal event order, and provide some sense of closure When writing a personal narrative, or a realistic fiction small moment story, be sure to include the following steps: 1. Imagine a character. 2. Imagine the setting. (Both the character and setting must be realistic.) 3. Imagine the character getting into trouble or having a problem. 4.

Then and Now ActivityExtension Activities:Remind students that George Washington Carver discovered hundreds of uses for sweet potatoes and peanuts. He took something that was readily available and changed the way people used it. Have students think of creative and alternative uses for something. They may think of different ways to recycle and reuse an item (for example, using a tire as a planter) or find a different use from a common product (such as using onion skins as paper). Students can prepare their inventions and make posters and presentations. Then have an Invention Convention where students can share their work with family members or add it to a video or PowerPoint to share with your teacher. Create a collage or poster with inventions that George Washington Carver invented. Make sure you label each invention.Other InfoScience Extension: Earth Day is April 22.
