Subject: Math

Grade Level: Kindergarten

Objective: recognize the words "put together", add to and in all that indicate
the act of adding whole numbers

Learning within and across curriculum:

- Within:

1) Counting objects and recognizing patterns in Math

2) Identifying basic shapes in Math

3) Recognizing numbers and sequencing in Math

- Across:

1) Language - understanding and following simple addition word problems

2) Science - sorting objects based on quantity

3) Arts - creating patterns using different shapes

Review Motivation:

Teaching Strategy: Storytelling

Instructional Materials: Pictures of objects and numbers

Engaging Activity 1: Storytelling using pictures of objects and numbers

Engaging Activity 2: Brainstorming on how to group objects for addition

Engaging Activity 3: Role-playing addition scenarios with classmates

Activity 1: "Putting Together Friends"

Teaching Strategy: Cooperative Learning

Materials: Picture cards of different objects, numbers

Significance: Reinforces the concept of putting together objects to add

Instructions:

1) Show picture cards to students

2) Ask students to group the objects together and count them

3) Have students share their groups and counts with the class

Rubric:

- Correct grouping - 5 pts.

- Accurate counting - 5 pts.

- Participation - 5 pts.

Assessment Questions:

1) How many apples are there?

2) Can you group the cars and count them?

3) What is the total number of objects?

Activity 2: "Adding Fun with Shapes"

Teaching Strategy: Visual Aids

Materials: Shape blocks, number cards

Significance: Introduces students to adding shapes to create new shapes

Instructions:

1) Provide shape blocks and number cards to students

2) Ask students to add different shapes together and identify the new shape created

3) Have students explain their additions to the class

Rubric:

- Correct addition of shapes - 5 pts.

- Creative combinations - 5 pts.

- Verbal explanation - 5 pts.

Assessment Questions:

1) How many triangles make up the new shape?

2) Can you add a circle and a square together?

3) What shape is formed by combining a triangle and a rectangle?

Inclusive Activity 3: "Counting Song"

Teaching Strategy: Music and Lyrics

Materials: None

Significance: Promotes learning through auditory stimulation and repetition

Instructions:

1) Teach students a counting song with adding elements

2) Sing the song together as a class and encourage participation

3) Have students create their own verses for the song

Rubric:

- Participation - 5 pts.

- Creativity in verses - 5 pts.

- Memorization of the song - 5 pts.

Assessment Questions:

1) How does the song help us remember numbers?

2) Can you create a verse about adding apples?

3) Why is singing helpful in learning addition?

ANALYSIS:

Activity 1 - Students showed understanding of grouping objects for addition

Activity 2 - Students demonstrated creativity in combining shapes for addition

Activity 3 - Students actively participated and engaged in the counting song

ABSTRACTION:

Recognizing patterns and shapes and combining them to form new shapes can help
deepen students' understanding of addition. Reading materials such as "The Shape
Story" and "Shapes in the Real World" can further reinforce these concepts.

APPLICATION:

Teaching Strategy: Experiential Learning

Task 1: Have students create their own shape patterns using real objects at home

Task 2: Ask students to add the numbers of objects they see on a nature walk and
record their additions

ASSESSMENT:
Teaching Strategy: Differentiation

Instructional Materials: Number cards, shape blocks

Question 1: How many circles are there in total?

Question 2: Can you add two squares to three triangles?

Question 3: What is the sum of four stars and two hearts?

H.O.T.S.:

Question 1: Why is it important to know how to group objects when adding?

Answer 1: Grouping objects helps us visualize and understand addition concepts

better.

Question 2: How can you use addition in everyday situations?

Answer 2: Addition can be used to calculate the total number of items, like fruits in a
basket.

Question 3: What happens if you add different shapes together?

Answer 3: Adding different shapes together can create new shapes with different
properties.

Assignment:

1) Ask students to draw a picture showing objects being added together

2) Have students count and add the number of steps they take in a day
