Lesson Plan : Mathmatical Strategies
Teacher Name: | Mrs. King-Espinoza |
Grade: | Grade 2 |
Subject: | Math |
Topic: | Students will explore various problem solving and learning strategies. |
Content: | bar graph certain divide equal groups impossible likelihood multiplication multiply outcome pictograph prediction product sort table tally marks diagram objects organized list guess and check pattern deductive reasoning (working backwards) logical reasoning simplify brainstorm strategies process |
Goals: | I want the students to be able to use a systematic approach to solve all types of math problems |
Objectives: | SWBAT solve multiplication and division problems using a four step program and strategies. FOUR STEPS = understand - plan(choose a strategy)- solve - explain (look back) act out or use objects make a picture or diagram use or make a table make an organized list guess and check use or look for a pattern work backwards use logical reasoning make it simpler brainstorm |
Materials: | The Problem Solver 2 Activities fro Learning Problem Solving Strategies - Creative Productions packet form - overheads |
Introduction: | introduce first 3 strategies and model process on overhead |
Development: | modeling the problem solving and thinking processes to get a solution on the overhead manipulatives available if needed |
Practice: | practice and independent practice worksheets |
Accommodations: | Students will be given extra time. Also accommodate any Individual Education Plan requirements or provisions. |
Checking For Understanding: | fourth step of method is written form or explanation of process taken to solve. This explanation must prove the application chosen |
Closure: | problem solving game teams. We will take 30 minutes to plan. Students have to get the same answer to a problem using 3 or more different strategies. |
Evaluation: | graded independent practice 80 and above |
