"Between what two tens is 689 located?" (Students hold up mini white boards.) "Ok, I see 80 and 90 as one common answer. I also see 680 and 690. Talk to your partner. Which answer do you think is correct?" Between what two tens/hundreds/thousands/etc. is tricky language!

Day 21: Today's math lesson opened with a review of identifying between what two ______s a number is located. Then we started moving into using these boundary numbers to help us round numbers. Small steps, but we're moving in the right direction of understanding!

It's been a pleasure reading their personal narratives. Not everyone was equally as successful, but I appreciate that they all grappled with how to effectively write events in chronological order using sensory details and dialogue. I look forward to them sharing with one another!

Day 21: After days of planning, my brilliant bunch FINALLY had all the pieces in order to write their food memory personal narrative. They put pencils to paper and wrote and wrote. I'm so proud of them! As they finished, they used a checklist before handing in their narrative.

As much as I would have preferred to finish this activity yesterday, it actually worked out well as the warm up for today's lesson.

Day 21: We launched our Amplify CKLA lesson today with a review of how to punctuate dialogue. Then students were challenged to write two sentences with dialogue that they can include in their food memory narratives.
