Performance Indicator: Learners can use the concept of "equal to" and "not equal to", to solve addition and subtraction problems with sums up 100.Core Competencies: Problem Solving skills; Critical Thinking; Justification of Ideas;
T.L.R.(s): bottle tops, bundles of sticks, exercise booksKeywords: Equal, Subtraction, Number
Phase 1: Starterpreparing the brain for learning
Have leaners to solve for the missing numbers in the empty cells + 1 2 3 1 2 4 2 4 3 4 Engage leaners to Play show me a number game with learners (up to 10), with fingers. Teacher mentions the number from (1 to 10). Learners then show their fingers up to show the number
Engage leaners to sing the song We class six We can count We count 1,2,3,4,5
We count 6,7,8,9,10 We class six can count very well. Engage learners to sing I’m counting one, what is one • 1 - One is one alone, alone it shall be. • 2 - Two pair, two pair come pair let us pair • 3 - Turn around • 4 - Follow me • 5 - Fire • 6 - Sister
Phase 2: Mainnew learning including assessment
Explain to leaners that' “≠” means “not the same as” or “not equal to” Use models to explain “not the same as” or “not equal to” using the symbol “≠” Put two red blocks aside and four yellow blocks aside. Have leaners to count each set and record it. Have leaners to tell the difference by saying the yellow blocks is more than the red blocks by 2. Hence 5 red blocks “≠” seven yellow blocks “≠” Changing two given sets, equal in size, to create sets that are not equal (e.g., change = to ≠), explain the changes made and why. Use models to demonstrate to leaners how to make two given sets unequal. Show two sets of blocks to leaners. have leaners to count each set and record. Take away a block from one set. Leaners realize that the blocks are not equal again. Determining whether two sides of a given number sentence are equal or not and using the appropriate symbol to Represent the relationship (e.g., 16 ≠ 8 + 5) represent an unknown in addition/subtraction statements to 100. Demonstrate an understanding of the relationship between addition and subtraction by describing a subtraction as an equivalent addition and vice versa; i.e. finding the missing addend. For example: subtract 40 – 28 is the same as finding the number that must be added to 28 to make 40. Demonstrate an understanding of the relationship between addition and subtraction by describing a subtraction as an equivalent addition and vice versa; i.e. finding the missing addend. For example: subtract 40 – 28 is the same as finding the number that must be added to 28 to make 40. For this activity, learners use bottle tops, bundles of sticks and exercise books to model the stated operation concretely and record matching number sentences and solutions.
Phase 3plenary / reflections
Give learners task to complete while you go round the class to support those who might need extra help. Have learners to read and spell some of the keywords in the lesson Give learners task to complete while you go round the class to support those who might need extra help.
