Reading: Daily 5 with emphasis on beginning, middle, and ending; finding evidence in text to

predicate? How can I signal my reader that I am starting my thought? How can I am show them 
that I have finished my thought?

Writing Workshop: Students will review and begin a new informational writing piece. How do I 
plan and write a teaching book to inform others on a topic?

even and odd quantities, polygons, number lines, story problems, time, graphing, base ten, etc.

 to observe what happens when plants are not given light, soil or water vs. others that are cared

 think about what plants need to grow and live.
