Engaging Kids with Numbers: Lesson Review

The teacher conducted a lesson on number recognition using the book "Ten Black Dots" as an interactive read aloud. She assessed the students' number recognition skills before, during, and after the lesson by showing them numbers and having them identify the quantities. Most students were more engaged in this lesson compared to the previous one and were able to recognize more numbers. The teacher found the lesson successful but thinks she could improve it by incorporating a better game to reinforce number learning and having students physically place dots to represent quantities.

Ginna Weatherford Lesson Two Review The title of my second lesson was Ten Black Dots.

I wanted the children to learn and recognize their numbers since most of them struggle with this concept. I used the book called Ten Black Dots as an interactive read aloud to have the children engaged in recognizing numbers. For my pre-assessment I showed the children the numbers zero through ten and documented if they could correctly tell me the number. Also on each number contained the dots corresponding to that number. If they used the dots to tell me the number I made a special note of that too. For the during assessment I had the numbers zero through ten and played a game with who could tell me that number first. For the after assessment, I helped my children make a book of the numbers and if had then tell me the numbers. If they still were having trouble then I allowed them to use bean to place them in the dots of the book and then tell me the number. All of the assessments used anecdotal notes to document any important information or break thoughts that the students had. My second lesson had a few highlights and what I would change. In this lesson, unlike the first it seemed the children were more engaged than my first lesson and enjoyed seeing what they dots could make and also calling out the numbers. Most of the children participated as they all know what numbers are and are more familiar with them that my first lesson. I would change my having a better game. I think that there could be a better way to get them to remember their numbers. Also, another way I could get them to recognize their numbers is have children place their own dots that correspond with the number. I could accommodate this lesson by finding more ways to keep the childrens attention and make sure I do not lose them. I could also accommodate by having the children recognize

the numbers without dots as a review for older children. I really enjoyed this lesson because I actually saw the improvement of the students in their numbers. This was very neat for me to see! I really enjoyed this math lesson with my students.
