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}

• Students will understand the concept of "counting on" from a given number.
• Students will demonstrate their ability to count on through various activities.

Materials

• Counting manipulatives (e.g., blocks, counters)
• Number line poster (1 to 20)
• Whiteboard and markers
• Worksheets with counting exercises
• Counting songs or rhymes audio (optional)

Grade/Age Group

Year/Grade 1

Subject

Mathematics

Class Size

20 students

National Curriculum Alignment

This lesson aligns with the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, specifically:

• CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.1.NBT.A.1: Count to 120, starting at any number less than 120.
• CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.1.NBT.B.2: Understand that the two digits of a two-digit number represent amounts of tens and ones.

Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length (Minutes)	Details
1	Introduction	5	Briefly introduce the topic of counting on, explaining what it means. Use examples and ask students to share numbers they can count to.
2	Counting Warm-Up	5	Engage the class with a counting chant or song to warm up (counting from 1 to 20). Encourage clapping or movement as they count to enhance engagement.
3	Model Counting on	10	Use a number line to demonstrate counting on. For example, starting at 5, show how to count on to 20 (5, 6, 7... 20). Use manipulatives for visual aid.
4	Guided Practice	5	Work with the students to practice counting on using counting manipulatives. Give students scenarios (e.g., "If you have 8 blocks and count on 5 more...").
5	Independent Practice	5	Distribute worksheets for students to complete independently where they count on from various starting numbers.
6	Closure	5	Recap the key concepts learned during the lesson. Answer any questions and emphasize the importance of counting on.

Homework

• Distribute a counting worksheet for students to complete at home, focusing on counting on from various numbers.
• Homework will be checked thoroughly the next class without requiring anyone to present it in front of the class.
