Explain How Would You Give The Concepts of Subtraction and Division? Materials
The document provides instructions for teaching children the concepts of subtraction and division using a collection of objects and color-coded grammar cards for nouns, adjectives, verbs and articles. The teacher guides the children to build sentences by having them place the cards next to the relevant objects in the correct order - noun, adjective, verb, article - to form complete sentences describing the objects. This hands-on activity helps children learn grammar and sentence structure.

QUESTION 4:
EXPLAIN HOW WOULD YOU GIVE THE CONCEPTS OF
SUBTRACTION AND DIVISION? Materials: - 1. Collection of objects/animals 2. Color-coded grammar cards 3. black nouns 4. royal blue adjectives 5. red verb 6. grey articles Presentation: The directress starts off by introducing children to the box containing the collection of objects/animals and giving them a chance to set up the farm and have a discussion about what the objects and different animals are unto. This is very helpful for children who are not proficient in the language of instruction as second- language speakers, as well as kids with delayed language concerns as this gives them an opportunity to practice and explore the language in a stress free and casual environment. Once they have worked with the early grammar noun cards, they can then be introduced to the noun cards in the farm. The teacher should ask the child to set up the farm, take out the black and naming cards, and then read them out one by one as she places them next to the relevant objects. Similarly, once the children have familiarity with early grammar adjective cards, they may be introduced to the farm box adjective cards by demonstrating to them how to place the adjective cards next to the noun cards. The child first reads the noun card, attempts to find the object is then asked to go through the adjective cards to try and find a word that best describes the objects, for e.g. ‘plump’ to be paired with ‘piglet’. The teacher may also introduce the first set of lower case article cards by teaching the children how to place this next to the adjective card. Allow them to continue this exercise with the rest of the objects and pairing cards. Finally, the verb as well as upper case article cards may be introduced to the children, with the verb cards being placed next to the noun cards, and article cards next to the adjective cards. The child starts by reading the first noun, for e.g. ‘man, finding an object to match it, and then associating an adjective with it, for e.g. ‘strong’. The teacher then directs them to the final part of the exercise by asking, “What does the strong man do?”. The child may respond in one of several verbs, for e.g. ‘sits’. The directress then reminds him that they are constructing a sentence, which needs the article card to start with a capital letter. The child finds the card saying ‘The’, hence completing the sentence, i.e. “The strong man stands.” On each occasion the cards are returned to the bottom of their respective piles so that the child can read the next card. The child then reads the next noun card and continues sentence building as before. These exercises assist children in learning the grammatical structure of phrases and sentences through the use of cards
