How do we align investigations materials with our CCS Curriculum Maps?  Let’s pick out what the “Student will be able to do…” from the CCS curriculum map.  Verbally count in sequential order  Read, write, identify numerals (0-20)  Identify the amount of objects in a set using one to one correspondence  Count objects in different arrangements to answer “How many?”  See a quantity and be able to name one more  Each table will be given a specific objective to focus on and look through Sessions 2.1, 2.2, & 2.3 and align materials/activities that match your specific objective.

Planning Materials  Planning Chart Planning Chart  Where to start?  Look at the Planner at beginning of Investigation 2 Looking across Sessions 2.1, 2.2, & 2.3 What activities align with student objectives from CCS Curriculum Map? Verbally count in sequential order Read, write, identify numerals (0-20) Identify the amount of objects in a set using one to one correspondence Count objects in different arrangements to answer “How many?” See a quantity and be able to name one more
