Standards Addressed

3.OA.B.5 Apply properties of operations as strategies to multiply and divide.2 Examples: If 6 × 4 = 24 is known, then 4 × 6 = 24 is also known. (Commutative property of multiplication.) 3 × 5 × 2 can be found by 3 × 5 = 15, then 15 × 2 = 30, or by 5 × 2 = 10, then 3 × 10 = 30. (Associative property of multiplication.) Knowing that 8 × 5 = 40 and 8 × 2 = 16, one can find 8 × 7 as 8 × (5 + 2) = (8 × 5) + (8 × 2) = 40 + 16 = 56. (Distributive property.)
3.OA.4.9 Identify arithmetic patterns (including patterns in the addition table or multiplication table), and explain them using properties of operations. For example, observe that 4 times a number is always even, and explain why 4 times a number can be decomposed into two equal addends.

Standards Addressed

3.OA.C.7 Fluently multiply and divide within 100, using strategies such as the relationship between multiplication and division (e.g., knowing that 8 × 5 = 40, one knows 40 ÷ 5 = 8) or properties of operations. By the end of Grade 3, know from memory all products of two one-digit numbers.
3.OA.A.2 Interpret whole-number quotients of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 56 ÷ 8 as the number of objects in each share when 56 objects are partitioned equally into 8 shares, or as a number of shares when 56 objects are partitioned into equal shares of 8 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a number of shares or a number of groups can be expressed as 56 ÷ 8.
3.OA.A.3 Use multiplication and division within 100 to solve word problems in situations involving equal groups, arrays, and measurement quantities, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.1
3.OA.A.4
Determine the unknown whole number in a multiplication or division equation relating three whole numbers. For example, determine the unknown number that makes the equation true in each of the equations 8 × ? = 48, 5 = _ ÷ 3, 6 × 6 = ?
3.OA.B.6 Understand division as an unknown-factor problem. For example, find 32 ÷ 8 by finding the number that makes 32 when multiplied by 8

Read Aloud Plans for Halloween/Plant Life Cycle {Pumpkin Jack}

$3.00

This resource contains plans for the Read Aloud Pumpkin Jack by Will Hubbell.

This fun read aloud is perfect for the month of October. The plans are notes for the teacher to refer to as you are reading the book. The notes are on squares that can be cut and pasted onto Post-It notes. When placed in the book on the designated pages, your Read Aloud is prepped and ready to go!

Each Post-It square contains either a Think Aloud prompt or Question to help guide you in your read aloud. You can use as many or as few as you would like. The last post-its are intended to be blank for you to add any other teaching ideas. The questions can also be used as a formative assessment and are centered around:
• Characters
• Character Relationships
• Text/Illustration Connections
• Life Cycle of a Plant

In order to use the Post-It Notes and place them on the appropriate page, it helps to add the page numbers to the book if they are not already listed.

For the purposes of these plans, page 1 starts with “When Tim carved his first pumpkin…”

Attendance Data Monthly Collection Sheets {Dog-Themed}

$4.00

Help your students stay accountable for their school attendance. This dog-themed attendance data collection helps your students track their attendance throughout the entire school year.

Attendance can be an issue in the classroom, thus affecting student achievement. This data sheet will help your students track and reflect on their own attendance. By collecting this data, it opens more doors for students to set goals for themselves as well as see the relationship between their presence at school and their academic success.

The data sheets can be used as part of their Morning Work routine or as a Weekly Update. In our classrooms, this became a part of their data folders that were presented to parents at Student-Led Conferences. This was effective as well for parents to see their child’s attendance in a visual model.

This might also be helpful identifying students with attendance issues or to recognize students who have perfect attendance.

The data collection sheets can be printed front to back or you could shrink them down and have two on the front page and two on the back. Each day, students shade in with a colored pencil to show they are present. They can either leave absent days blank or shade in with a different color. I suggest you define the colors! You might also shade in days where there is no school black to avoid any confusion. How you have students do this is completely up to you! There are a variety of possibilities.

If you find other useful ways to use this resource, we would love to hear from you! help@theliteracyloft.com

This product has been updated with new graphics and fonts as of August 5, 2015! Check out the preview up top!

This product includes 44 words chosen based on the
4th Grade Next Generation Life Science Standards. These cards were used for the following units:

Heredity & Learning, Food Chains, Life Cycles, Plant and Animal Reproduction, & Seasonal Changes

I have used these vocabulary words in my classroom on my Science bulletin board in order to help support student learning. Each slide or page is 8.5x11 and includes two cards/words on each page.

In my classroom, I cut the cards out and then glued onto construction paper (green). To help make the cards last longer, I highly recommend laminating. The following words are included in this product. I would love to hear feedback if you feel any other words should be included.

learned behavior
instinct
