Howdy friends,

Here is today's Daily Special . I think the special teachers sent out their last video yesterday!

section. You can also choose some of the other number practice problems in the

section.

Literacy:

Lexia for 15-20 minutes. Read for 30 minutes. Here is a wonderful story you might like to listen to about 10 simple things that you can do around your house to help the world.

10 things I can do to help my world

What do you do to help the world? You can write and draw about how you help the Earth!

Optional Activities:

Baby animals are so cute to look at. Have you ever wondered why? Here is a mystery science lesson from my good friend Doug all about this topic.

I hope you enjoy looking at all the sweet baby animals...I wish I could take one home! Why do baby animals look so cute?

I think I've played this song for you before...I just love it and it reminds me of all of you! What am I?

Math Challenge:

Practice writing the numbers 0-20 or even go higher!

Count backwards from 29 all the way to 0.

Create as many equations as you can that equal 10 (you can use 10 counters to help you).

Count by 10s, and 5s to 100.

Have an awesome day! Love,

Lexia for 15-20 minutes. Read for 30 minutes. Here is a wonderful story you might like to listen to about a girl who loves to use her imagination to be the characters in the books that she reads. This is also a story about being courageous (talk about what this means) and not giving up, and speaking up for yourself or being assertive. Amazing Grace

Optional Activities:

I know that sometimes things are very hard to do and you might feel like giving up (like learning to ride your bike without training wheels or helping someone) but remember to keep on trying. Here is a wonderful song about not giving up!

Would you rather have this...

Or this?

Have an awesome day! Love,

Kind words, a smile, saying "I'm sorry" can send those ripples of hope and happiness to your family and friends when you have done something that you feel badly about. You can write about this today. You can write words: When I _________________I feel sad so I _____________________.

Optional Activities:

Mindful Activity

Did you know that it is o.k. to get angry? Yes, it is part of being human. But when we do, it is important not to hurt other people, so here is some advice from other kids your age: Just Breathe.

Exercise also helps us feel better when we are feeling angry or sad. I go for a walk or play basketball when I am upset and I feel so much better afterwards. Here is an exercise to do inside or outside: Try counting backwards from 20 to 1 while doing jumping jacks, count backwards from 30 to 20 marching, count backwards from 40 to 30 twisting, keep going if you can -making up exercises and doing sets while counting backwards (50-40, 60-50, etc.).

And now here is a message from Mr. Rogers:

There are Many Ways to Say I Love You

Have an awesome day! Love, Mrs. Cody
