| 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} |

30 minutes
This lesson aligns with the national curriculum by promoting mathematical reasoning, communication, and collaborative learning.
| Step Number | Step Title | Length (minutes) | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Introduction | 5 | Briefly explain the lesson objectives and the importance of knowing each other. Discuss how math can be a fun way to connect. |
| 2 | Icebreaker Activity | 10 | Conduct a math-related icebreaker where each student shares a favorite number and explains why. Encourage the use of simple mathematical terms. |
| 3 | Group Work | 10 | Divide students into small groups. Provide each group with a worksheet containing mathematical questions related to personal interests (e.g., "How many siblings do you have?" or "What is your age?"). |
| 4 | Sharing Results | 3 | Have each group briefly share their findings with the class without formal presentations to maintain a relaxed environment. |
| 5 | Wrap-up | 2 | Summarise what was learned during the lesson and highlight interesting facts shared by students. Encourage them to continue practicing maths and talking about personal topics. |
| 6 | Homework Explanation | 3 | Share homework instructions, which involve completing a short reflection on what they learned about each other and any new math concepts they encountered. Collect homework but do not ask for presentations in class. |
Students will complete a reflection piece based on the lesson, noting down interesting facts they learned about their classmates and any new mathematical language they used. This homework will be checked without individual presentations to foster an inclusive environment.
