Thursday Activities

*This week we will be reviewing addition for Math as well as the different parts of a plant for science.*

Math:

Directions: Today we will be creating a flower addition fact activity. 

1. On a piece of paper draw two large flowers. 
2. On the center have your child pick two numbers larger than 5. You do not need to do the same ones I did. 
3. Inside each flower petal, draw some ten-frames that your child can use to show their work. 
4. Above each ten-frame, they should write the addition sentence that equals the number in the center. 

Send a picture to your teacher through ClassDojo or text. 

Objective: By the end of this unit the student should be able to represent addition using objects, drawings, or mental images. 

Science: 

Directions for the activity: Today we will be labeling the different parts of a plant. 
Watch the videos with your child about the parts of a plant. Print or create our parts of a plant craft. If you want to make your own by hand, just use two papers one on top of the other. 

Worksheet: print here

1. First, divide the top paper in half vertically. 
2. On the left side have your child draw a large flower including the roots, stem, leaves, and flower. 
3. Then use a marker or black crayon to divide your flower into the 4 parts, as seen in the picture. 
4. Cut the 4 flaps on the right side, and on top of each of the flaps have your child identify which part it is. 
5. Glue only the left side to the second paper, which will allow you to open each flap to reveal what each part of the plant does. 

Make sure to send a picture to your teacher when you are done. 

Objective: Students will be able to describe each part of a plant.
