Peek At My Week 1/13

Stop the world. I am posting my lesson plans for the week. Thankfully we have had a pretty calm weekend, so it gave me some time to get caught up and actually ready for the week ahead! Well, we did have one major event.
Little Miss played in her first soccer game.

And, she scored FIVE goals. Yes, there were tears {her tummy hurt AKA "I'm very competitive and want to score my first goal"}. For someone who has never played before, I was pretty impressed AND a little worried that she is going to eventually be too rough if that's what it takes to win. She's definitely her father's daughter!
Back to what I came here for... to share my plans! This week we are starting our mystery unit, that's when I cover a lot of inferencing skills. Next week we will break out into our detective groups where each group gets their own case file to solve while reading mystery novels. It's one of my favorite things to do because the kids get SO into it and love being little detectives!

We are also continuing our subtraction with regrouping unit. I *may* have wanted to pull my hair out on several different occasions last week, but we survived!

For the Daily 5 I am going to try something new this week. My kids are really retaining their math skills and I truly believe it's because we are constantly spiraling and reviewing concepts during math stations. I've seen a HUGE difference in math this year, and I'm really excited about that! So, I want to implement more literacy stations into our Daily Five time, while also doing the D5 justice. But, I haven't quite figured out how I'm going to do it yet. I'll keep you posted ;)

And there you have it! Another week planned and prepped. How many more to go?! ;)
