B. Activity

Unlocking of Difficulties:

Semi-Concrete Stage:

One Sunday morning, the warm sun came up and

POP, out of the egg came a very hungry caterpillar.
He started looking for some food.
On Monday, he ate 8 water apples. But he was still
hungry.
On Tuesday, he ate 8 guavas, but he was still
hungry.
On Wednesday, he ate 8 bananas, but he was still
hungry.
On Thursday, he ate 8 red apples, but he was still
hungry.
On Friday, he ate 8 mangoes, but he was still
hungry.
On Saturday, he had a stomach ache!

The next day was Sunday again. Now, he wasn’t

hungry anymore-and he wasn’t a little caterpillar
anymore. Then he nibbled a hole in the cocoon,
pushed his way out and….
He became a beautiful butterfly!

Now, we have a group activity. I will divide you into

two groups.

Group 1

Fruit Tree (Activity)

Direction: Put the fruits on the three with the
quantities of 8. Count how many fruits each tree has
based on the story “The very hungry Caterpillar.”

story. Count how many fruits the caterpillar ate.
C. ANALYSIS

apple, and mango did the caterpillar eat?

Group 2

The teacher will show the circle and triangle

shapes.

How many triangles do I have?

Today, we learned the number that comes after 7 is
number 8. Now, let us try to count again the fruits
that the caterpillar ate. This time let us write number
8 using the finger on air, follow me. Do you already
know how to count 1 to 8?
-very good!
