I've have created a supplemental unit for CA Benchmark Advanced First Grade 2017 with 5 Anchor Chart Posters ! The first 20 days is designed for the teacher to establish various routines and introduce concepts that will be taught throughout the year.

I have also added my own pieces which I felt were missing from the series and essential to a beginning of the year first-grade curriculum.

If you are looking for something that follows Benchmark Advance exactly with exact wording DO NOT purchase this product. I have no affiliation with Benchmark Advance. It is aligned with the series including many of the concepts and more. I have added a creative touch to teaching the concepts in the series.

As always, I have included many quality activities. Please pick and choose what you feel is important. Use this product based on the needs of your students. You will need to use the TRS or teacher’s guide in planning your week. These activities are in the concept order mentioned in the TRS, however, some concepts are mentioned throughout the 20 days.

These are just some of the activities, The First 20 Days includes…
