Lesson Plan #3:

Topic: Math problems using symbols, words problems, comparing small and large numbers,
and using the value of money to add and subtract.
Standards: CCSS.Math.Content.1.OA.A.1
“Use addition and subtraction within 20 to solve word problems involving situations of adding
to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions,
e.g., by using objects, drawings, and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to
represent the problem”
Big Idea: I will be able to solve word problems by comparing and using objects that represent
things using addition and subtraction.
Objective: Students will be able to add and subtract using word problem solutions and using
math symbols to find the right answer to the problem.
Lesson Plan: We’re going to go over words that represent adding and subtracting. We’re going
to go over different symbols that we use in addition and subtraction. We’re going to go over
how they are used in story problems and where they would be in math problems. We’re going to
draw the equations and the symbols on the whiteboard to show the students.
Date: 7/15
Topic: Math problems using symbols, Grade Level: BYU-I Student Names: Jeff Huish
words problems, comparing small and 1st and Shauntanika
large numbers, and using the value of
money to add and subtract.

CCSS: Use addition and subtraction within 20 to solve word problems involving situations of
adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all
positions, e.g., by using objects, drawings, and equations with a symbol for the unknown
number to represent the problem.

Curricular objective/s: Students will be able to learn word problems that involve putting things
together and taking them apart and what the problems and equations mean.

Curricular assessment: Put a smiley face or unhappy face or Informal thumbs up/down if they
are understanding the lesson and teaching.

I can statement/Target: I will be able to work with math problems using word problems and
using objects and equations to find out the problem.
Vocabulary terms and definitions:
Sum- to find how many there are of a number
How much- how many are in the group and altogether
Less- take away from the group
Left over- how many are left

Materials:
Paper Towels, White broads, blocks, Jars, Pencils, Paper

Accommodations:
High: The above grade level student will be given more complex problems to solve and work
on such as more complex measurements.
On Grade: The Students that are on grade level will be assist, watch, and help when needed
Low: Will sit by and watch them and help them work and teach them about the math work and
use examples to help them learn.

Procedures:
Students will be reminded at the beginning of the group time to use materials for the day
gently and respectfully and they do not walk away by themselves and to raise your hands when
you have a question to ask. Also to use our talking voices inside the room.

Time Sequence of Lesson Materials

Attention Getter There will be pictures of four different coins on Pictures of quarter,
the board. A quarter, penny, dime, and nickel. dime, penny, and
Raise your hand to tell me what coin is this. nickels.
Teachers will wait for students to identify all four Coins and dollars
coins.

Teaching Today we will learn different coins have different Coins

values. We can add or take away from coins and Dollars
dollars.

Modeling We will have a lemonade stand for the students to

practice adding and subtracting coins. The teacher
will model buying a cup of lemonade with one
dollar. How many quarters, pennies, dimes, and
nickels are in one dollar. If you buy two cups of
lemonade, which coins can you use to equal 50
cents.
Check for Students will demonstrate their understanding of
Understanding the value of money using addition and subtraction
problems.

Guided Practice Students will use money provided to buy different

items with different prices at the lemonade stand.

Brain Break Students will have the chance to manipulate Playdough

playdough into different shapes. They will also be
given an opportunity to get a drink or use the
restroom.

Teaching Students will explain how many coins or dollars

they need to buy different items at the lemonade
stand. Use less coins such as 100 pennies vs two 25
cent coins; two quarters etc. Teacher will assist
students if needed.

To be collected: The students will be given an index card with a smiley

face, a neutral face, and a frowny face to rate their understanding for that
day. On the opposite side of the note card, they will write what they
learned and how they felt.
