In this numeracy lesson
I used different of instruments to achieve the aim of the week which was about using a variety of manipulatives and pictorial
representatives of numbers to 10. The lesson has to be connected with the theme
so in the activity I used umbrella template that match with the season's topic.
In the whole I used different of instruments with flash cards that has numbers.
I used each time one of the instrument and I asked each time one of the
students to count and when I stop
they have to pick the number from the floor. I noticed that using the
instruments grabbed their attention and made them engaged to the lesson.
Next time I think to
avoid any distraction like that I may ask the child to sit beside me and help
me so I will keep him busy. Also I will try to point on him if he did something
right as reinforcement.
As I noticed in the
previous week that the students enjoyed using the sponges with the paints so
for this week I wanted to use the paints again however with different things.
The students had an umbrella template in front of them and they had to paint the umbrella with purple color because it was the color of the week. After that they had to put their thumbs on the paints and stamp it on the umbrella. I differentiated the activity to be suitable with their level and I asked them to count while they printing. I went through the activity with some of the students to avoid the problem that happened last week with the sponge's activity however in this lesson the problem that occur was with one of the children during the plenary time. He becomes out of my control and he was moving around his friend and distracting them. He was not listening or responding to my rules so I ignore him to finish the lesson.

Hello Fatima
ReplyDeleteI think it's better to just describe briefly what happened in the lesson - the cut and paste of the lesson plan makes a mess of your blog! I have noticed you've been using a lot of paints in your lesson - finger painting, too. Remember to also highlight the literacy part, too, so that there's some kind of writing occuring.
