Action Jackson Teaching Remedy 2020-03-23 | Dear families,Our objective for today's story is to explain why Jackson’s work is original, by identifying and explaining the reasons an author gives to support points in a textAssignments: 1) Go over the word, 'biographies.' 2) Point out that this biography is different than the first biography they read because it only tells us the story of ONE painting, not the painter’s entire life. 3) Watch the video and pause to answer the discussion questions in the video. 4) Reflect on the following question:The author says, “Jackson Pollock is doing something original, painting in a way that no one has ever seen before.” What evidence does the author include to support this statement? In what ways is Jackson’s work truly original? Here is what a mastery response would sound like:Jackson’s technique was very different/unique from other artists. The author shows that his work is original by explaining that Pollock puts his canvas on the floor while other artists put it on an easel. Some artists have a base coat of white paint but Jackson doesn’t because he leaves bare patches on his paintings. Some painters use oil paints or watercolors but Jackson gets normal house paint. Some paint pictures of flowers/people but he doesn’t paint these things. Jackson also dances around his canvas like a dancer/athlete using his whole body.5) Write down 5 things that support Jackson's work being truly original. (Ask them to look for the evidence in the story.) 6) Please upload student work onto our google classroom.Thank you!Mrs. Funda

Popular Series include:Where is Waldo? Series by Martin HandfordWhere is Moshi? Series by Moshi Moshi KawaiiI Spy Series by Jean Marzollo and Walter WickCan You See What I see? Series by Walter WickHey Seymour! Series by Walter Wick- Takeover!Materials: A game board and markers from the house, Subtraction Within 20 Fact Cards (found inside your folder – you might have cut them out already if you used them for yesterday’s activities.) Most board games requires a roll of the dice to determine how many squares to move. In Takeover!, players use a deck of Subtraction Within 20 Fact Cards to move. On each turn, the player draws a subtraction fact card and figures out the answer. For example, if a player draws 19 – 9, she moves 10 spaces. To extend, have students create their own board games with special spaces. Chutes and ladders board games work best. You can also use the 100 chart (found in your folders) and play until you reach a 100!- Subtraction Practice Make a large T shape on a piece of paper. Randomly write out five numbers greater than 10 and have students write them on the left side of the “T.” When they have those written, give them a number to subtract, such as, “Subtract 8.” Students write “-8” on the top of the “T”, then proceed to solve the problems on the right side as fast as they can. Play again using different numbers!Have fun!Mrs. Funda
