Freshly Picked Practice:   Find the paper with the words Freshly Picked Practice printed at the top and follow the directions given.  You will need to locate the two pages of strawberry patterns as well.  I have enclosed a blank sheet of strawberry patterns for you to make more letters and numbers to review with this game.

4.       Math:  Subtracting from 10

Activate Prior Knowledge:  Show your child a cup and a set of ten pennies.

Explain that you are going to put the pennies inside the cup.

Have your child count with you as you place one penny inside the cup.

Ask:  How many pennies are on the table now? Nine

Tell your child that 10 pennies take away one penny is (equals) nine pennies.

Ask:  If I put more pennies into the cup, what will happen to the number of pennies on the table?  Sample answer:  There will be fewer pennies.  The number will get smaller.

Ask:  What will happen to the number of pennies inside the cup?  Sample answer: There will be more.

Continue to place more pennies inside the cup and pause to allow your child to determine how many pennies remain on the table.

Repeat telling your child that ___pennies take away one penny is___pennies.

Practice:  Materials—Locate the blackline paper with the word Playground at the top.  You will also need to find the ten playground animals you used in the May 13^th math lesson, or ten other manipulatives.

Tell your child the following story problem:

Ten animals were playing on the playground.  Four animals heard their mother calling and ran home.  How many animals stayed on the playground? Six

Instruct your child to use his/her manipulatives to solve and directly model the story problem.  Practice telling a couple of more stories for your child to solve and model.

Final Assessment

Tell this subtraction story:  Ten animals were playing on the playground.  Seven animals walked away.

How many animals stayed on the playground? Three

How did you find your answer?  Sample answer: I took seven animals away and counted the one that stayed.

5.       Bible Story:  Timothy (Acts 16:1-5; 2 Timothy 1:1-5; 3:14-17)

Memory work: I remember you in my prayers, night and day.  2 Timothy 1:3

·         Materials: Find the paper with the word Timothy printed at the top of the page.  Cut the four pictures apart to prepare to tell today’s story.

·         Say, the Bible has many stories about families.  Who is this family?  Place the puppets of Lois and Eunice as well as young Timothy in your storytelling area.  What do you notice about this family? Note:  If your child asks about Timothy’s father, say that Timothy did have a father, but the Bible doesn’t tell us about him.  The Bible doesn’t even tell us his name.

·              The Bible does tell us that Timothy’s mother, Eunice, and his grandmother, Lois, spent a lot of time telling Timothy stories from the Bible.  They told Timothy of God’s love for all people.  They shared the story of God’s promise to send a Savior.  By the time Timothy went to school, he already knew a lot about God.

·              Exchange young Timothy for grown up Timothy.  Add Paul to the scene.  Say, When Timothy was a teenager, a pastor came to their town.  His name was Paul.  You might remember him.  Paul became Timothy’s teacher.  Paul told Timothy and his mother and his grandmother that Jesus, the promised Savior, had come.  Paul told them Jesus had died so that all their sins could be forgiven.  Timothy studied hard and became a pastor like Paul.

·              Paul and Timothy traveled together.  Move Paul and Timothy away from Timothy’s grandmother and mother.  In every town they would go to church and tell the story of God’s love for all people.  They told people that God loved the world so much that He sent Jesus to be the Savior.

·              Paul and Timothy became good friends.  Once Paul told Timothy he loved him as much as a father loves a son.  When Timothy and Paul weren’t traveling together, Paul wrote Timothy letters.  Separate the puppets of Paul and Timothy.  Two of the letters are here in God’s Book, the Bible.  Open your Bible to 1 Timothy.

·              In his letters Paul told Timothy how special it was that he had a mother and grandmother who told him stories of God’s love when he was little.  Paul also told Timothy to teach other your men to become pastors so that more and more people would hear the story of Jesus, our Savior.  And Paul told Timothy he missed him very much and that he hoped he and Timothy would see each other again soon.  Paul wrote, “I remember you in my prayers night and day” (2 Timothy 1:3 NKJV).  Paul and Timothy were good friends.

·              Say, God gives us a family and friends who love us and share the story of Jesus’ love with us.  God even knew you would be in this school and have all these friends and teachers who would tell you about Jesus.

             

Prayer:   We pray for our school friends and family, for tall friends and short friends, for big friends and small friends;  Dear God, bless us all.  Amen.
