CKLA Lesson 15 Happy Cinco De Mayo! This lesson is also available to watch on the next blog post.

Today we are going to start by playing a game. Please read the following directions and see if you can guess what I am doing. 

Turn on the water.

I Get my hands wet.

 I get 1 squirt of soap.

 I Rub my hands together and scrub, scrub, scrub!

 I Rinse my hands .

I Get a paper towel and dry my hands.

What am I doing?  (Washing hands)  

Now go find someone in your family and act this out for them. See if they can guess what you are doing. Make sure you follow these directions in order.

What do you want to end up with after you wash your hands? (Clean hands)

So when we write the directions for washing hands we could say when you have followed these steps you will have clean hands.

Remember good instructions always have a title too! We could say the title of these directions are “How to Wash Your Hands.”

So when we write this it would look like this

How to Wash Your Hands

1. Turn on the water.
2. Get your hands wet.
3. Get 1 squirt of soap.
4. Rub hands together and scrub, scrub, scrub!
5. Rinse your hands .
6. Get a paper towel and dry your hands.

When you have followed these steps you will have clean hands.

These are clear what clear instructions look like.

Please reread “A House in the Clouds” and answer the questions on 15.2

Monday, May 4th Learning Plans

May 4th -

CKLA Unit 7 lesson 14 CLICK ON THE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON FOR TODAY AND MY LESSON GOES THROUGH ALL OF THIS.

Today we are going to continue learning about writing how-to instructions.

In our last lesson we tried drawing some shapes in a random order. Then we drew shapes with very clear instructions and you were able to draw a house by following the instructions.

Please try following these steps in order:

Take your shoes off

Take your socks off

Put your shoes back on.

Put your socks back on.

What is the problem with these instructions? (The steps are out of order)

What would you change to make these directions correct? (Switch the last two directions)

Now try doing worksheets 14.1 & 14.2 You are going to cut out pictures and sentences and then paste them in the proper order to create clear instructions for planting seeds. Please lay the pictures down in the correct order- don’t glue them yet. 

(Steps are 1. Place soil in a pot. 2. Make holes in the soil. 3. Place the seeds in the holes, one seed per hole. 4. Close holes and wet the soil. 5. Keep the soil moist.

Look at these steps. This is what good instructions look like. The writing starts with a title, has steps that are numbered and in the correct order and has a summary at the bottom of what will happen if you follow the steps.

Read A House in the Clouds

Journal: Please choose a journal prompt from the yellow Journal Prompt sheet.

Language Arts CKLA Lesson 13

Read Mr. Gomez and answer the questions on 13.1

Please be sure to restate the question.

Have students get a blank piece of paper and follow these instructions:

Go to the board. Pick up a marker. Draw two squares. Draw a triangle. Draw a rectangle. Draw a box around the squares and the rectangle.

What they would draw is not what everyone would draw. Now grab a different piece of paper and follow these instructions.

Instructions II: Drawing a House 1. Go to the board. 2. Pick up a marker. 3. Draw a large box on the board. 4. Draw a triangle-shaped roof on top of the box. 5. Draw a rectangle for a door inside the box. 6. Draw two squares for windows on each side of the door inside the box

• Ask students which set of instructions was more helpful for drawing a house and why. (The steps in Instructions II had a title, were complete and clear, they were numbered and given in logical order.) • Discuss with students what happens if the steps in a set of instructions are not complete or in a logical order. • Emphasize to students that a very important part in writing instructions is to make sure that the steps are complete, clear, and in logical order.

*Do Team OA paper.
