 Annie Culbertson   Skip Counting By 5s and 10s
DAY: 3/10/21 SUBJECT Math
    LENGTH OF LESSON
   45 minutes
 
CONTENT STANDARDS AND CONTENT OBJECTIVES
SUBJECT STANDARD GOAL OF UNIT
CCCSTM.K.CC.1  Knowing how to count by different intervals and able to
Count to 100 by ones and by tens. count on from any given number.
CCCSTM.K.CC2  
Count forward beginning from a given number within OBJECTIVE OF LESSON
the known sequence (instead of having to begin at 1). After this lesson the Kindergarten students should know
  how to skip count by 5s and 10s.
 MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCE ADDRESSED  
 Intrapersonal: Working with a partner to do the science
activity
Verbal/Linguistic: answering questions and making
observations
Logical/Mathematical: learning how to count for 1:1
correspondence and skip count by 5s and 10s
Bodily/Kinesthetic: getting up and switch partners, can
stand while counting out candy, dancing to exercise skip
counting videos
Musical: singing to exercise skip counting videos

 
 
ASSESSMENT
STRATEGY FOR ASSESSMENT
 -Information assessment of asking them questions as we go along.
 -Formal assessment with two worksheets to see how well they are able to complete them after the lesson.
   
 
LEARNING ENVIRONMENT
STRATEGIES TO MEET DIVERSIFIED LEARNERS
For students that struggle with counting I will pair them up with a peer partner that can help them. I will use the
100-chart to help students have a different way to visualize what the candy represents.

MATERIALS, EQUIPMENT, and TECHNOLOGY NEEDED

 Large container of M&Ms, small bowls for each pair of students, plastic plates, laptop/projector, M&M Experiment
YouTube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iN5p0NrpDWE), small pitcher, candy jar document (see
below), dry erase markers, white board, 100 chart poster, YouTube exercise skip counting by 5s and 10s videos
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amxVL9KUmq8 , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8CEOlAOGas ), skip
counting by 5s worksheet, scissors, glue stick, counting by 10s worksheet, dot paints
 
   
 

STEPS THROUGH THE LESSON

INTO RATIONALE
 -When students walk in, they will see their desk in pairs. -Before beginning the math lesson where we will use

how the experiment works and different ways they could
do their M&Ms. Once each pair completes how they
want their M&Ms on the plate I will pour water with a
small pitcher and let them watch.
 
 
 
 
THROUGH RATIONALE
 -As a group we will count to 10. Then I will have students -I want the kids to switch partners to learn how to work

them count their piles. They will transfer the M&Ms to
Candy Jar document (see below). On the whiteboard I
will draw 10 colored circles in each jar to represent what
they have on their papers with the candy. “Does anyone
know how many M&Ms we have all together? How could
we count them?” I will point their attention to the 100-
chart poster. I will point their attention to the right side
in the 10s column. We will count out loud as a class. We
will discuss how if each candy jar is just like one row on
our poster. Then we will count by 10s in the candy jar.
-“If I took the same M&Ms that you have now and broke
them down into group of 5, instead of 10, what would
happen? Would I have more or less M&Ms?”
-We would then repeat the activity without the candy jar
paper, and we would count by 5s to see that our total
number didn’t change.

BEYOND
-I will play the two YouTube videos that are exercising to
counting to 5s and 10s.
-Pass out counting by 5s worksheet with scissors and glue
sticks.
-Once complete pass out counting by 10s worksheet.
They will use dot paints and a pencil to complete it.
RATIONALE
-Hearing the number patterns done to music will help
some students remember how to skip count. They will
enjoy getting up and moving around. The two
worksheets are for my to assess how well that are
understanding this concept.
