Universal Screener for Number Sense: Grade 1

(View Complete Item Description)

This series of interview-based screeners contains assessments for fall, winter, and spring, and are designed to serve both as indicators of struggle and measures of growth. All screeners are available in English and Spanish. The purpose for these assessments is to provide a series of interview-based screening assessments to: • help teachers to understand how their students are making sense of mathematics. • measure key number sense skills, concepts, and developmental milestones. • help teachers better understand how to support all students in accessing grade level content and accelerate learning. • inform RtI or MTSS Tiers 1 and 2: identify areas topics for whole class and small group instruction. • help teachers identify individual students who might need additional supports, and direct teachers toward high impact topics for instruction to accelerate learning. • identify students to whom the teacher might want to administer diagnostic assessments. • improve parent communication and collaboration.

Sounding Out Activities

(View Complete Item Description)

In Sounding Out activities, students take a regular word, such as sat, produce the letter-sound pattern "sssaaat," and blend to produce the word sat. This is a crucial development in learning to read, bringing together skills that students have spent many weeks working on and providing the first excitement of reading unaided. Being able to sound out regular words also provides students with a self-teaching capability: they can decode unaided words they do not yet recognize on sight.

Grade 1 - Elementary Science and Integrated Subjects: Plants and Their Parts

(View Complete Item Description)

Elementary Science and Integrated Subjects is a statewide Clime Time collaboration among ESD 123, ESD 105, and the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction. Development of the resources is in response to a need for research- based science lessons for elementary teachers that are integrated with English language arts, mathematics and other subjects such as social studies. The template for Elementary integration  can serve as an organized, coherent and research-based roadmap for teachers in the development of their own NGSS aligned science lessons.  Lessons can also be useful for classrooms that have no adopted curriculum as well as to serve as enhancements for  current science curriculum. The EFSIS project brings together grade level teams of teachers to develop lessons or suites of lessons that are 1) focused on grade level Performance Expectations, and 2) leverage ELA and Mathematics Washington State Learning Standards.

Grade 1: How Does Light Help Me See Things And Communicate With Others?

(View Complete Item Description)

Awarded the NGSS Design Badge This first-grade unit on light starts with students exploring the shapes they can see on different pieces of paper at various locations around their classroom when the lights are turned off. They are surprised to find that some of the shapes are not visible in these conditions. This leads students to start wondering about other phenomena related to seeing in the dark, which in turn leads to new questions and design problems related to how they can make their room completely dark.
