Counting Collections is an important mathematical routine that students or families can do with very little guidance at home. Teachers could make kits with available resources for use at home, or send suggestions for commonly found objects that families could use for counting practice at home.
Counting Collections are just as described; they are collections of items that students count. Depending on your students, you will need several different kits. Kits hold several different collections of items.

Outcome: CR3.2 Respond to arts expressions that use the environment (natural, constructed, imagined) as inspiration. Indicator: E. Create an arts expression in response to, or in the same style as, a professional artists and identify connections to the original work. Assessment: For this lesson I used formative assessment. I was able to observe students strategies when completing their art work and assess them based on their knowledge of what they were producing. 1) Can the student identify the different textures within the original artwork. 2) Can the student use this knowledge to recreate these textures within their response to the original. 3) Can the student make comparisons and connections with their own response and the original art work. Based on this formative assessment I was able to supplement for students that were lacking the above criteria. I was able to put them into small groups so they were able to collaborate with each other and follow a direct step by step process to complete the artwork. Within the groups we discussed each step and identified the above criteria together.

I decided that we would collaborate and think creatively in our own classroom. We brainstormed on the SMART board and created KWL charts about each organ: the brain, the heart, and the lungs. From there I decided to use a board game as their assessment. Together again we created a SMART board list of what things needed to be included in a board game. After that I printed off the list and they had to fill it out. Once they had filled out all of the required areas they were allowed to start creating their board games. They used items from both school and home to develop their board games. We have a class set of laptops so they we eager to use those to type out instructions and rules. Once we were all finished our games we set out to play them. The students assessed each other’s games based on a 5 point rubric. They had a blast and learned a lot too!
