Lesson Plan: Жуп жана Так Сандар
Grade Level
6th Grade
Lesson Duration
60 minutes
Instructional Approach
Singapore Method: Focus on concrete-pictorial-abstract approach to understanding mathematical concepts.
Incorporation of Physical Activity: Include kinesthetic activities to enhance engagement and understanding.
Learning Objectives
Students will be able to:
Identify even and odd numbers using concrete examples.
Classify a set of numbers as even or odd.
Explain the difference between even and odd numbers in their own words.
Apply the concept of even and odd numbers to solve real-world problems.
Create a visual representation of even and odd numbers using models or drawings.
Materials Needed
Number cards (1-100)
Colored markers
Chart paper
Math journals
Physical activity props (e.g., hoops, cones)
Lesson Outline
Introduction (10 minutes)
Engage Students: Begin with a brief discussion on what students know about even and odd numbers. Use number cards to demonstrate how these numbers can be grouped.
Objective Sharing: Clearly articulate the learning objectives to the students.
Concrete Representation (15 minutes)
Activity: Distribute number cards among students. Ask them to form two groups: even and odd numbers. Use real-life examples, such as counting steps or arranging objects, to show even and odd characteristics.
Discussion: Have students share their observations and reasoning.
Pictorial Representation (15 minutes)
Group Task: In pairs, students will draw a line of numbers (1-20) on chart paper and color even numbers in one color and odd numbers in another.
Gallery Walk: Allow students to walk around and view each other’s work, noting similarities and differences.
Abstract Understanding (10 minutes)
Explanation: Transition to the abstract concept by defining even numbers as multiples of 2 and odd numbers as those not divisible by 2.
Practice: Provide a worksheet with a list of numbers; students must write 'E' for even and 'O' for odd next to each number.
Application with Physical Activity (10 minutes)
Active Game: Set up an obstacle course where students must sort numbers into even and odd by hopping to even numbers and skipping to odd numbers.
Reflection: Have students write in their math journals about the experience and what they learned.
Assessment
Observation: Monitor student participation during activities.
Worksheet: Evaluate completed worksheets for understanding.
Journal Entry: Assess students' reflections for depth of understanding and ability to articulate concepts.
Homework
Challenge Problem: Ask students to find as many even and odd numbers as they can in their environment (e.g., house numbers, number of books, etc.) and record them in their journals.
Common Core Alignment
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.6.NS.B.4: Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12.
This lesson plan incorporates the Singapore Method and physical activities to foster an engaging and comprehensive understanding of even and odd numbers.
