Description |
| Fraction Folding-Part 1: | In this lesson, students will build the understanding of unit fractions. They will differentiate examples and non-examples of fractional parts of squares. They will label unit fractions and describe unit fractions as those that “build” other fractions. |
| A Penny Saved is a Penny Earned... Just Ask Alexander!: | This lesson is a culminating activity to a unit on counting money based on the story "Alexander Who Used to Be Rich Last Sunday". Students work with various amounts of money in cents (up to 1) and dollars (up to 100) and learn to understand the differences between wants and needs. |
| Coin Combinations: How else can you pay for that?: | In this lesson, students will learn that there can be multiple ways (multiple coin combinations) to reach a given money amount. Using money manipulatives, students will work cooperatively and independently to practice finding different coin combinations for a given money amount. Students will also become comfortable knowing that there are multiple ways to reach a correct answer. |
| Discovering Math: Beginning Measurement: | Demonstrate the basic measures of length, width, height, weight, and temperature by measuring objects and recording the information.
- Demonstrate how time is measured by recording it to the nearest minute.
- Count money using coins and bills.
