Full lesson	Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle}

Lesson plan

Topic

One to One Correspondence

Objectives

• Understand the concept of one to one correspondence.
• Develop counting skills by matching objects.
• Foster the ability to recognize and create pairs of items.
• Enhance fine motor skills through hands-on activities.

Materials

• Counting manipulatives (e.g., buttons, blocks, or counters)
• Worksheets with images of pairs of objects
• A whiteboard and markers
• A timer for activities
• Reward stickers for participation

Grade/Age Group

Reception / Kindergarten (Ages 4-6)

Subject

Mathematics

Class Size

20 students

National Curriculum Alignment

This lesson aligns with the Australian Curriculum for Mathematics, particularly in the area of Number and Algebra, by helping students to develop foundational skills in counting and understanding the concept of one-to-one correspondence.

Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length (minutes)	Details
1	Introduction	5	Introduce the topic of one to one correspondence. Use visuals to demonstrate the concept.
2	Demonstration	10	Show examples of pairing objects (e.g., counting buttons). Involve students in counting.
3	Hands-On Activity	10	Distribute manipulatives. Have students work in pairs to create sets of matching items.
4	Worksheets	5	Hand out worksheets for students to complete quietly. This should involve drawing lines to connect pairs.
5	Wrap-Up	5	Review the key concept. Reinforce the idea of one to one correspondence visually. Praise students for their efforts.
6	Homework Explanation	5	Explain homework clearly: practice one-to-one correspondence with household objects.

Homework

Students will practice one-to-one correspondence by finding pairs in their home environment (e.g., socks or toys) and will return with their findings documented on a simple worksheet. The teacher will check the homework without requiring students to present in front of the class.

Additional Notes

• Ensure that students are paired strategically for the hands-on activity to foster collaboration.
• Use positive reinforcement throughout the lesson to keep students engaged.
• Monitor students during activities to provide support where necessary.
