Pre-K - 2 Across Lessons SWRs Tools i-Maths Inquiry Search Standards Contact Us Home Internet-Based Multi-Day Lesson Plan / 6 - 8 Developing Number Sense Overview : In this lesson, students develop number sense through a change in approach to the teaching and learning of mathematics. This approach focuses on students and their solution strategies rather than on a "right answer," on thinking rather than on the mechanical application of rules, and on student-generated solutions rather than on teacher-supplied answers. Mathematical Learning Objectives: To develop intuition about number relationships To estimate computational results To develop skills in using appropriate technology NCTM Standards: Number and Operations http://standards.nctm.org/document/chapter6/numb.htm Understand meanings of operations and how they relate to one another Work flexibly with fractions, decimals, and percents to solve problems; Compare and order fractions, decimals, and percents efficiently and find their approximate locations on a number line; Understand and use ratios and proportions to represent quantitative relationships;

Year 2 Free Week #5 Lesson Plan - Review of Number Sense (5 min) PRIME NUMBERS AND PRIME FACTORS A prime number is any number, greater than one, that is not divisible by any number except itself and 1. Is 1 a prime number? NO, by definition. (although 1 is a perfect square.) Name the prime numbers between 50 and 60: [53 and 59] Note that neither 51 nor 57 is prime because they are both divisible by 3. We know that because the sum of their digits (6 and 12) are divisible by 3. We are frequently asked to find the prime factors of a number. We do this by breaking it down, in an upside down tree, until all the numbers are prime. If a number has the same prime factor more than once, list them all. For instance, the prime factors of 12 are 3, 2, and 2 - or - 3 and 2 If you asked to find the greatest common factor, GCF, of two numbers, it will be smaller because a factor is smaller. If you are asked to find the least common multiple (LCM), it will b larger because you must multiply. SEQUENCES If you are asked to find the next number in a sequence, find out what you do to the first to get the second, and what you do to the second to get the third. Sometimes there will be two things going on.

#1863. How Much is a Million? and Number Sense Mathematics, level: Elementary Posted Fri Jul 21 08:55:05 PDT 2000 by Carrie Srsic ( yrff@grove.iup.edu Indiana University of PA, Indiana, PA USA Materials Required: Jar filled with 50-100 of the same object Activity Time: 1 hour for each of three days Concepts Taught: Number Sense I. Math: How Much is a Million? and Number Sense Grade 2 Time Allotted: 1 hour for three consecutive days II. Rationale This activity is intended to provide students with the opportunity to discover the magnitude of the number 100. This understanding of the value of a number is termed number sense and can be developed by allowing students to experience 100 by counting it, measuring it, feeling it, and doing it, hands-on. Number sense is an important asset in estimation activities because it enables students to formulate appropriate approximations. III. Lesson Objectives As a result of this lesson, the learner will: 1. Measure 100 in terms of dimension, time, personal reaction, or other appropriate means. 2. Describe their measurements of 100 using words and pictures.

Sample Lesson Plan Spatial Sense- Going Around In Circles GOAL: The purpose of these lessons is to develop an appreciation of circles and other curves as shapes that describe the world of motion. Estimating and computing circumference and area of circles are emphasized. WHY: The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Curriculum and Evaluation Standards (1989), Standard 12, Geometry, grades 5-8, stresses the study of geometry in a variety of situations so that students can "identify, describe, compare, and classify geometric figures; represent and solve problems using geometric models; develop an appreciation of geometry as a means of describing the physical world." It is also important that students are challenged within a situational context of interest to them. Since many middle school students are interested in amusement parks, this interest is used in the video and some of the questions. Many students are also interested in artistic projects such as curve stitching which is used to present curves as a pattern of straight lines in Lesson 1. WHAT: Black Elk Speaks : "You have noticed that everything an Indian does is in a circle, and that is because the Power of the World always works in circles, and everything tries to be round. In the old days when we were a strong and happy people, all our power came to use from the sacred hoop of the nation, and so long as the hoop was unbroken, the people flourished."

The misconception is that things that come to mind more quickly (for example, groups of 2) are more numerous than things that don’t come to mind as quickly (for example, groups of 4). This lesson can also serve as a precursor to thinking through more complicated counting techniques. IV. Learning Objectives: Basketball handout Badminton handout Journal Entry handout VI.

More Lessons: K-2 Objective Students will count and compare amounts of money less than or equal to one dollar. Overview of the Lesson Through a collection of hands-on activities, students gain experience in counting, exchanging, and comparing money. Students begin the lesson by finding all of the possible combinations of coins that can be used to equal a specified amount of money. They then compare two amounts of money and use number sense skills and problem solving strategies to move coins from one group to another so that both groups are equal in value. Students play the Money Exchange Game as they roll a die with money amounts and try to be the first person to obtain exactly $1.00. Students must make monetary exchanges in the game such as trading ten pennies for a dime. The students are then immersed in an economics activity as they shop in the teacher made puppet supply store where they are given one dollar to buy items to make a paper bag puppet. Materials Teacher: Money Chart — Divide a 9” x 16” piece of tag board into 4 columns. Label the columns: Pennies, Nickels, Dimes, Quarters. You may use a picture of the coins rather than words. If you wish to use the chart for other activities, you may make cards with labels that students could place at the top of the columns.

More Lessons: Grades 3-5 Objective Students will use number sense and estimation such as taking a sample and using benchmarks to make reasonable estimates. Students will use computation skills to solve problems and estimation to check the reasonableness of the results. Overview of the Lesson Utilizing the thematic setting of Johnny Appleseed, students have many opportunities to practice their number sense, computation and estimation skills as they progress from merely guessing the number of apples in a bushel to making a reasonable estimate based on a point of reference or benchmark. Students use data from the Michigan Apple Growers to compute and analyze the total amount of apple yield per acre. They work at centers to gain experiences in visualizing the magnitude of one million apples. Students also gain experience in using a grid as a resource to make better estimations.

Probability Plus: By Mary Arth Rationale The main focus of this lesson is probability– the study of what "might be," in contrast to the study of "what is." There is still much to know about this area of mathematics. During studies of probability in the classroom, it is important to reinforce several key concepts: collecting data distinguishing between population and sample interpreting data determining probabilities making inferences and creating arguments based on the data This project also allows both teachers and students to enjoy working with the full range of K-4 NCTM Standards in one lesson. During this lesson the students: problem solve use statistics and probability communicate use geometry and spatial sense reason use number sense and computations estimate make mathematical connections use fractions and decimals discover patterns and relationships Background Information for the Teacher Definition of a cube: three-dimensional object with six square faces of the same size.
