Teacher: Read the title and tell children that these are pages from a how-to text. Browse the pictures and ask children to predict what this how-to will be about. Have children read through the text on their own. Introduce the term “crayon resist.” Then discuss the process for making a crayon resist as described in the text. Purpose: To read a how-to text; to use ordinal numbers to describe a sequence Call attention to the studs on the LEGO bricks in the first row. Have children count the studs on each brick and write the numbers under the bricks. Ask children to write the sum of the addition on the line. Have children complete the addition sentences and then review the answers. For the Bonus question, note that all the pieces have an even number of studs. Purpose: To create addition sentences based on the studs on LEGO bricks
