Common Core Review
Review parts of six. Draw a part-part-whole mat the Activboard, showing 6 as the whole. Hold up
six cubes. Let's review some different ways to make six. If I keep one cube and I give one cube to
_______, how many cubes does he/she have? Fill in the numbers of cubes you have and the
number of cubes the student has. Repeat for 2 and 4, 3 and 3, 4 and 2, and 5 and 1.
Today our focus question is, How can we find a missing part of 6 or 7?
Explore
Show the students that you have six cubes. Place them into a cup or bag, then pull out 5. Tell the
students, I had six cubes in all. Five are right here next to the bag. How many are in the bag? How
did you find the answer?
Give students time think of an answer. Call on several students to give their answer and the
strategy they used to find it.
Strategies to highlight: remembering the parts that make 6 and counting on
Fill in number one on the front of the Envision packet. Repeat for a part of seven.
Pass out a bag and six cubes to each pair of students at their desks. Tell one student in the pair to
put some cubes in the bag and leave some cubes out of the bag for their partner to see. The partner
should try to figure out how many cubes are hidden inside the bag. Each partner should fill in
number two on the Envision packet.
Pass out one more cube to each pair of students. Have students take turns leaving a missing part
in the bag and filling out numbers three and four of the Envision packet. Walk around and ask
students to explain their strategies as they work.
Explain
Come back to the carpet and review the focus question. Our focus question was, 'How can we find
a missing part of 6 or 7?' How have we answered that question so far?
Allow students to share the missing parts of six or seven that they found.
Watch the Envision Visual Learning video.
On the Activboard, complete the Guided Practice section of the students' 2.1 Envision packets as
a whole group. Reinforce strategies that they have been using throughout the lesson. Read the Do
you understand? question and discuss answers. Read the instructions for the independent practice.
Allow students time to complete the independent practice on their own. Circulate to each table as
needed to help.
Elaborate/Evaluate
Read the problem solving page questions out loud for the whole group. Take up packets to check
the problem solving page for understanding.
