Step Number | Step Title | Length | Details |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Introduction | 5 mins | Begin with a brief introduction to the concept of doubling. Use visuals to explain what it means to double a number, engaging students with examples such as 1+1, 2+2, and so on. |
2 | Guided Practice | 10 mins | Distribute counters to each student and guide them through doubling numbers. Ask students to show how they can double numbers from 1-5 using counters while you write on the board. |
3 | Independent Practice | 10 mins | Hand out worksheets with tasks that require students to complete doubling exercises. Circulate the room to provide support and encouragement, and ensure all students are engaged. |
4 | Review & Reflect | 3 mins | Collect the worksheets to review students' understanding. Use this time to clarify any misconceptions and reinforce the concept of doubling with a few more examples. |
5 | Closing Activity | 2 mins | Conclude with a fun chant or song about doubling. Provide stickers as rewards for participation. Encourage students to think of their own doubling examples to share at home. |
Assign students a simple worksheet with doubling exercises for numbers 1-5 to reinforce their understanding at home. Worksheets will be collected and checked at the next lesson without needing students to present their work in front of the class.
