Learning Coach Notes:

Lesson #	Lesson Title	Notes
1	30.1- s and es	Your student will need to have a research topic chosen. S/he will also need to have three questions written, researched, and answered for the writing assignment this week. As your student reads “What I Saw at the Zoo” ask them the following question: What did the boy and his family see at the zoo? In their Language Arts notebook have your student draw a picture of their favorite part of the story and write about it using their spelling and sight words. Use the sight word flashcards daily with your student. Mix them up, show them the words and ask them to read the sight word. Next do not show them the word but say the word and ask them to spell the word. During Independent Reading time have your First Grader read the story they chose out loud so that you can hear errors and correct them if needed.
2	30.2- s and es	There will be no formal handwriting worksheets assigned during this semester. However, if you believe your student still needs more work or practice with handwriting, please visit the Teacher Guide for handwriting resources to implement on your own. Your student will be comparing and contrasting with the two stories: "Little Red Cowboy Hat" and "Little Red Riding Hood." You will need to read these two stories aloud to your student. As you read the stories to your student remind him/her to listen closely for details of the stories. Later in the week, s/he will complete an activity that asks him/her to compare and contrast these two stories. Use the sight word flashcards daily with your student. Mix them up, show them the words and ask them to read the sight word. Next do not show them the word but say the word and ask them to spell the word. During Independent Reading time have your First Grader read the story they chose out loud so that you can hear errors and correct them if needed.
3	30.3- s and es	Your student will be going on a word hunt for the phonics lesson today. Have your student search for words ending in s and es in a magazine or newspaper and highlight those words when s/he finds one. Your student will be comparing and contrasting the two stories: "Little Red Cowboy Hat" and "Little Red Riding Hood." You may need to re-read these two stories aloud to your student. When reading "What I Saw at the Zoo" in this lesson have your student write the s and es words that are in the story in their Language Arts notebook. During Independent Reading time have your First Grader read the story they chose out loud so that you can hear errors and correct them if needed. Use the sight word flashcards daily with your student. Mix them up, show them the words and ask them to read the sight word. Next do not show them the word but say the word and ask them to spell the word.
4	30.4- s and es	Your student will need to have a research topic chosen, three questions written, researched, and answered. S/he will also need topic and concluding sentences written to complete today’s writing assignment. Your student will need his/her work from all three research questions and his/her topic and concluding sentences to write the rough draft. During Independent Reading time have your First Grader read the story they chose out loud so that you can hear errors and correct them if needed. Use the sight word flashcards daily with your student. Mix them up, show them the words and ask them to read the sight word. Next do not show them the word but say the word and ask them to spell the word.
5	30.5- s and es	Don’t forget to have your student complete their independent reading log and assignment and submit it at the Independent Reading Assignment lesson dropbox.
