Lesson Topic
Math fluency using Number lines, and place value activities to promote flexibility and strategic thinking; spatial and early geometric reasoning skills; math vocabulary
Lesson Outline
Alexandra worked on an activity teaching her to fill in the missing numbers on a number line which helps her to provide mental strategies for addition and subtraction; research has shown that number lines are important because they facilitate and promote good mental number sense and arithmetic strategies. Alexandra continues to be given activities aimed at promoting her understanding that two-digit numbers are made up of tens and ones through challenges that involve grouping objects into tens and ones which helps make abstract concepts tangible. and help her visualize and comprehend the value of each digit in a number. We also worked on number chart puzzles and domino addition tracks, as well as a place value chart using straw manipulatives. We ended our session building 2-D shapes with a toothpick and play-dough clay activity. We just began working on an activity chart on which Alexandra will build triangles, squares, rectangles, pentagons, hexagons, heptagons, octagons, trapezoids, and a parallelogram. While doing so, we will also be building Alexandra's understanding of 2 and 3 shapes and her math vocabulary of shapes and (e.g. angle, parallel - using a ladder to help her concretize and visualize its meaning). This is a fun hands-on activity designed to help promote Alexandra's spatial reasoning skills and pattern recognition while simultaneously strengthening her fine motor and bi-manual coordination skills.
