Primary EPC 3403 Lesson Planning Template Year 3, Sem 1
Grade Level: Grade 2
Subject: Math
Strand: Medium level.
Learning Outcome (ADEC code and words):
4 apples
Flowers
Different manipulative objects (sticks, cubes,
and counters).
Small board for each student
Markers
Question cards.
Baskets.
Flower and leaves or each student
Envelop
Orange cards.
Time: 10 min
Whole
teacher while telling them the story and finally kinesthetic when students will act and use body
language.
Arouse students interest as a result, they will gain various vocabulary words and understand
better.
Help them to become problem solvers.
2. Introduce the term even and odd ( explain)
Even numbers can be counted by 2s, broken into pairs or divided into equal groups.
Odd numbers have 1 left over when grouped by 2s, broken into pairs, or divided into equal
groups.
Guided Experience (group working with the teacher)- whole class activities
Activity 1: Explore with your flower and leave the even and odd number
Instruction
Students will take one flower, look at the number that written on their flower and use the leaves to
determine if their number is even or odd.
After fishing that, students will share what they did among their classmates.
Activity 2: explore with cubes the even and odd number (that has two digits).
Instruction
Each group will have cubes, they will have a number card, and then they will use cube to determine
if it the number is even and odd.
After this activity the teacher will introduce alternative strategies for identifying even and odd number.
Time: min
Small
Such as,
drawing strategy
Looking at the ones.
Give students an activity to practice that.
Give each student an envelope and inside it, put the number cards.
Ask student to take one card from the envelop and look at the number that written on the cards
Student will find if the number is even or odd by using the various manipulative objects. Because
they are low students, I will add more ease numbers such as 7, 9, and 8. Also, other number such as
12 and 13 will be included. (3 cards will be ease numbers, 2 cards will be 12 and 13).
When students finish with one card, ask them to take another one and do the same steps.
Why I choose this activity for low level?
Students with a low level will practice more on exploring the even and odd numbers by using manipulative
objects. Furthermore, asking students about the ease numbers such as 7 and 8 will guide them to
recognizing the other numbers (two digits) as well such as 17 and 19. Also, providing low-level students
the manipulative object will facilitate them to understand the concept of even and odd better because they
cant construct their understanding unless they use concrete objects or get guidance the math problems
better. Using manipulatives is especially useful for teaching low achievers and students with learning
disabilities (Marsh and Cooke & OConnell, 2011).
Independent Experience(small group activity 2)
Classify the numbers (medium -level)
Instructions:
Give each student the sum cards and the cone of potato.
Ask a student to find the sum, circle it and determine if it even or odd.
Students will solve the problems by using their strategy .Because they are high students. When
students finish with one card, ask them to take another one and do the same steps.
While students are doing the activity, I will correct their mistakes if they have and assess their
learning.
Why I choose this activity for high level?
High-level students need challenging activity, and this activity will be a challenge for them because
the question is not straight forward question, it has two steps, where students have to find the sum
then discover if it even or odd.
Time: 5 min
Whole
Closing
Do a short review by asking the students to say the differences between even and odd numbers.
Play with students the game snakes and leader games (competition between groups).
Assessment
While students are doing the activity I will walk around to observe their working .Also, I will ask students Oral
questions, such as, how did you get that?
Moreover, I will provide appropriate feedbacks for them and improve their learning.
Also, I will use the checklist.
Reflection:
I used fabulous techniques to help a student to understand the lesson well such as telling students a story; it
played a role in arousing student's interest and made them motivate to learn.
Integrate science and other subjects while teaching has a part to help students to make connections between
the subjects.
Reduce the teacher center role have a crucial role to support students to construct their understanding and
allowing students to discover and explore by themselves.
Capacity to manage the class, students were silent, participate and well behave.
The activities were productive and played a role to help students to construct their understanding. Also, it
designed to meet each student need which contributes to promoting student learning and enable them to
build and incorporate new knowledge and skills.
There was a various manipulative object; students could use whatever they wanted. Manipulatives allow
students to explain what they were learning and aiding them to clarify their thinking and demonstrate it to
others. Especially when I walked around and asked them how did you know that five is odd? Students used
the manipulative to show me that, there is a leftover cube. So, it is odd.
Even better if:
When giving students activity, take a quick look, assess how many were not understanding, then make it back
to a whole class activity.
Give students explicit instruction and model the activity for them because students faced problem to
complete the activity by themselves.
Make sure that all students understand what is going on by walking around and guiding them when
appropriate.
