What?What?How?

It was an interesting week as we looked at instructional writing and how to give a mammoth a bath.
We used a graphic organizer and after hearing the story filled in What?What?How? chart. Our first "What" is the task that you are explaining. The second, "What" is the materials we would use for the task and "How", is the steps one would need to do to complete the task. The next day we picked different books and read them with a partner looking to discover what the task was and materials needed in our stories before we wrote down the steps for the different tasks. 

In math, we practiced different mental math strategies to add and subtract to 18 through a variety of card activities. We were getting more accurate by the end of the week.
