Topic: A. Numbers and Number Sense: 1. Demonstrate an understanding of
what numbers mean (e.g., that the number 7 stands for a
group of objects). Demonstrate the relationship between a
number and concrete objects or drawings representing that
number. Create a variety of experiences for
the students to learn and demonstrate numbers. i.e. base ten
blocks , toothpicks bundles and toothpicks, bean sticks,
etc. Using Base Ten Blocks and a large
piece of construction paper divided into 3 side by side
sections. Label the sections from the right as ones, tens,
and hundreds. Students will roll dice. They will identify
the value of the number of dice and place the value of the
dice on the paper using base ten blocks or
counters/tiles/blocks/etc. valued as one, tens, hundreds.
They will trade 10 Ones for 1 Ten and 10 Tens for 1 Hundred
until they get to 1,000/10 Hundreds. The student will be
able to tell the teacher or a partner the value of Base Ten
Blocks at any given time during the activity. Resource: The student will be given three
different numbers and will need to write and represent them
using concrete objects or drawing them. number 2. Understand the many uses of number
(e.g., prices, recipes, measurement, directions in
play. Understand Brainstorm a list of where you see
numbers throughout your day Chart and discuss things brought in
from home that have numbers on it i.e. food items, recipes,
instructions Students will complete this writing

task *ordinal numbers 3. Order, compare, read, group, and
apply place value concepts to numbers up to
1,000. Identify and use: The student will write a one digit
number on 3 separate cards. Then they will mix them up. Next
they will place the cards in a row and write and tell the
number that the 3 cards represent. Students will trade their
cards with other children in the room and do the activity
again. Play the game High/Low. Students have
a sheet of paper lined with Hundreds, Tens and Ones. Teacher
uses a large deck of playing cards and holds up one card
after telling the students whether they are going for the
highest total number or the lowest total number. Children
decide what column to put the digit in. Teacher holds up
another card and repeats the task until she has held up
three digits to complete the number. At the end each round
the teacher asks what the highest number could have been and
what the lowest could have been. Using Base Ten Blocks and a large
piece of construction paper divided into 3 side by side
sections. Label the sections from the right as ones, tens,
and hundreds. Students will roll dice. They will identify
the value of the number of dice and place the value of the
dice on the paper using base ten blocks or
counters/tiles/blocks/etc. valued as one, tens, hundreds.
They will trade 10 Ones for 1 Ten and 10 Tens for 1 Hundred
until they get to 1,000/10 Hundreds. The student will be
able to tell the teacher or a partner the value of Base Ten
Blocks at any given time during the activity. Resource: Students fill in the blanks of a 100's
chart (orally or in Given two numbers students will
identify the first number as greater than or less
than. Students will name the place value of
given numbers. Lad
Task: tens 4. Determine reasonableness of results
when working with quantities. Understanding of Students will practice estimating
quantities of materials in various containers and checking
their estimations by counting , measuring, weighing,
etc. Students will estimate the answers to
addition and subtraction problems and then do the
mathematical computation. They can check their calculations
with a calculator. Pumpkin
Video Resource: Similar experiment:
Students will be given a unopened fun size package of
M&Ms and a single M&M to help guide their
estimation. They will estimate and record a reasonable
amount of M&Ms for the package. Then they will check
their estimate by opening and counting M&Ms. Lad
Task: Guess
How Many estimate
Students will understand and demonstrate a sense of what numbers
mean and how they are used.
