Bachelor of Education
Outcome(s) of Lesson:
1. Demonstrate an understanding of increasing patterns by describing, extending, comparing
and creating.
2. Demonstrate an understanding of decreasing patterns by describing, extending, comparing
and creating.
3. Numerical and non-numerical patterns using manipulatives and diagrams. (Numbers to
1000)
How will I know the students have achieved the learning outcome?
Students can solve a problem using increasing and decreasing patterns.
HOOK:
Expert Groups: In their table groups give each student a number 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Allow students to think
pair share at their table about how they will model how to count by these numbers on the 100 chart.
Have each table group come up and demonstrate.
Learning Opportunities:
Time Learning Opportunity How do I check that students understand what
to do?
9:50 On the smart board read aloud a problem for students Students can use the 100 chart and increasing
– to solve using the 100 chart. Michael is building a patterns to solve the problem.
10:05 model city. He wants to make 8 cars and 4 Materials Needed
motorcycles. Remember there are four wheels on a car Smart board slides
and two on a motorcycle. Ask students for suggestions Math Focus 3 (Nelson) – Teacher’s Resource
on how to solve the problem. Pull up a 100 chart on the
smart board. You want to make 8 cars with four wheels
each. Increase by 4 eight times. Mark it off on the 100
chart. You stopped at 32 so you need 32 wheels for 8
cars. Now you need the motorcycle wheels. Count by
2’s four times. Start at 32 on the 100 chart and mark it
off as you go. Answer = he needs 40 wheels altogether.
As a class discuss how you used increasing patterns to
solve the problem.
How do I differentiate the learning opportunity for all learners?
Give students their own 100 chart to use to solve the problem.
TRANSITION: (What will students do when they are finished? How will we move to the next learning
opportunity?)
Students crab walk to get their math pattern books.
CLOSURE:
Exit slip – Have students skip count by the number you give them as they leave the room.
Lesson Plan Analysis: Using your lesson above, describe the following: (This information must be in your
learning opportunities)
Decrease the amount of questions to be done in the workbook. Give students their own
Accommodations 100 chart to use.
