What would be some road blocks en-us 2016-03-10 13:03:16 UTC 2016-03-25 19:36:59 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.storage.googleapis.com/portrait/weigh.jpg https://padlet.com/colson4/s1fbayippo2z/wish/101632365 We do so much of this already, but probably the biggest task will be to gather resources and align reading and SS standards to see how they best match up. Our goal is to add to our existing plans the social studies extensions for next year. The most common roadblock for getting  this started will most likely be the time it will take to do all of this.]]> 2016-03-17 19:04:01 UTC https://padlet.com/colson4/s1fbayippo2z/wish/101632365 mcmahank2 https://padlet.com/colson4/s1fbayippo2z/wish/101633709 First grade tries to integrate a lot of our curriculum.  Because we only have a short (20 minute) block for SS, we have to incorporate those standards into reading as well.  I think our goal for now will be to include a SS connection with all of our current reading units.  We already read about our American Heroes in reading, but rather than doing some of our current mentor texts, we'd try to find resources to replace them that would meet our reading and SS standards.  The biggest road block is probably the fact that the reading plans were just recreated a couple of years ago.  Because that took such a shift and required so much, it will be hard to begin thinking about something completely new.]]> 2016-03-17 19:11:17 UTC https://padlet.com/colson4/s1fbayippo2z/wish/101633709 https://padlet.com/colson4/s1fbayippo2z/wish/101705324 It's exciting because we are already incorporating social studies and reading.  The goal for now is to get some plans in place to have an idea where we are headed and what standards need to be covered.  The roadblock is starting, digging into the curriculum, and having the resources.]]> 2016-03-18 09:06:58 UTC https://padlet.com/colson4/s1fbayippo2z/wish/101705324 popolab https://padlet.com/colson4/s1fbayippo2z/wish/102761867 Second grade has really been trying to integrate science/s.s./health with reading as much as possible. We work together during planning to create these units and we discuss our progress during grade level meetings. Our goal is to plan solid units so that next year, we have the plans and can work out the kinks and make them even better. A roadblock that we have seemed to face this year is time. We have spent a lot of time during duty days planning these units which is great; however, we don't always get this much time to plan during the week.]]> 2016-03-25 19:30:59 UTC https://padlet.com/colson4/s1fbayippo2z/wish/102761867
