Kindergarten Mathematics Lesson Plan

Lesson Title: Introduction to Numbers

Lesson Duration: 30 Minutes

---

Objectives:

• Students will be able to recognize and identify numbers from 1 to 10.
• Students will learn to count objects accurately.
• Students will understand basic concepts of more and less.

Materials Needed:

• Counting blocks or small objects (e.g., buttons, bears)
• Number cards (1-10)
• Whiteboard and markers
• Worksheets for counting practice
• Storybook involving numbers (e.g., "Five Little Monkeys")

---

Lesson Outline:

1. Introduction (5 minutes)

• Begin with a brief discussion about numbers. Ask students if anyone knows what a number is.
• Introduce the lesson's main goals: recognizing numbers and counting.

2. Number Recognition Activity (10 minutes)

• Show number cards one at a time (1-10) and ask students to shout out the numbers.
• For each number card, ask students to hold up that number of fingers.

3. Counting Objects (10 minutes)

• Distribute counting blocks or small objects to students.
• Instruct students to count out a specific number of objects (e.g., "Please count out 3 blocks").
• Walk around the classroom and assist students as necessary.
