Transition to Body: Body(_10_min.): Learning Activity #1: Students will write sentence on the inside of the card that says why they love their dad, something fun they do with their dad, their favorite memory with their dad, or anything that they would like to write for their dad. Assessments/Differentiation: If students are unable to think of their own sentence, they can chose from stock sentences: 1. My Dad (or friend ____________ ) works hard at ________________. 2. Daddy always tells me ________________. 3. It makes my Dad happy when ______________. 4. I really love it when my Dad __________________. 5. If I could give my Dad anything, it would be _________________. ****I will come around to your table and hand out the stickers when I think that your table is ready. (The table should at least have the sentence started). Grade Ones, can you please show me your eyes. I think you are ready to decorate your cards now, so can I need to have the special helpers (chose one student from each group of tables the student who needs to get up the most from their body language) come to the front and pick up the decorating materials from Miss. Biggins. But, boys and girls, you can see that there is only one sheet of stickers, and one set of coloring materials for each table, so what are some things we need to remember when we all using the same tools? if by 2 kids I havent heard the word sharing, or taking turns, Prompt students. So what can we do if someone is using the color we want to use, or if you want to pick out a sticker, but someone it is someone elses turn? take answers from 2 kids, Thats right, (refer to the agenda on the board) we can work on creating a back cover for out iPad, or, we can color the apps, work on your sentence, or write a new sentence! So there are lots of things you can do to keep busy. I will be walking around to help you with your writing.

Learning Activity #2: Chose out 12 stickers that you think might mean something to your special person. Maybe if he likes trucks, you can use the truck sticker. If your dad likes computers you can pick the computer sticker. You may also decorate a different sticker app if you would like to create your own! Learning Activity #3: Once you have finished picking out one sticker, pass the sheet to the person next to you, and let them pick out a sticker, and so on. While you are waiting on the sticker page coming back you, you may decorate the sticker that you have just chosen by coloring it, or work on cutting out the tie you have traced, and drawing and coloring a picture on the blank tie. At the 3-minute warning, clap for students attention. Boys and Girls, unfortunately thats all the time that we have to work on our cards for now, but we will be finishing these cards in our free time later today, or you can put them in your take-home folder to work on at home, so I am going to ask everyone to put their coloring materials back into the cases, and have my special helpers (4 most disruptive students) please collect the coloring materials. (Students 3
