How will you review past learning and make connections to previous lessons?
What skills and content are needed to ultimately master this lesson objective?
How is this objective relevant to students, their lives, and/or the real world?
Instructional Input
I will begin with a do-now problem on the panaboard, which will be an addition problem from the
previous days, this will get their mind switched over from the subject of SFA to math. They
usually have 5 or so minutes to do this. I will then do showdown, which is on their white boards,
each student has a white board and they copy the problem and then solve it. When I say 3, 2,
1SHOWDOWN, they all hold up their boards and then say the answer out loud. Showdown is
a series of around 10, or so problems of review of a mix of things we have learned from
previous days. When showdown is over, I will have them put back their boards and markers in
their math folder and show me active listening (quiet, looking up front at me, not fidgeting with
anything) I will then have Marely bring the students to the carpet to begin the model for that day.

I will have the kids who have a harder time seeing or having good behavior on the
carpet sit in the front next to me.

Co-Teaching Strategy
Differentiation Strategy
Independent Practice
Students will be working with their shoulder partners. They are paired up in their seats as
one kid who is higher and one kid who is lower so they can help each other and teach
each other when they get confused or need some extra help on a problem. This is a great
seating chart because each group balances each other out pretty well. Our intern Madison
will be sitting in between Brandon and Andrea as extra help, which is another
differentiation strategy.

Co-Teaching Strategy
I will be passing out three different exit tickets to certain students. The main exit ticket will
just have word or number problems on it where the students have to draw the graphic
organizer and that will include part-part-whole, the second exit ticket which will be for
eleven students and will include the graphic organizer just for number problems which is
3
part-part-whole for four problems. Two of the problems will have the whole and one part
already written down, the next two problems will have just the whole filled in and they have
to fill in both parts and then the last six problems will just have the problem and the graphic
organizer with nothing filled in and they have to fill it all in and then on the third
differentiated exit ticket which will be for one student, there will be the graphic organizer on
all the problems with the whole and one part filled in for every problem and the one student
will only have to fill in the last part to find the answer.
How will students summarize and state the significance of what they learned?
Why will students be engaged?
When it is time to turn in the exit tickets, Santiago will say Privacy folders down, the class will
echo it and then do it. I will ask the students to pass the exit tickets to number 1s and then
have Arian and Jazmine come by and pick them up and set them on my back desk. I will end
the lesson by telling the students they did a wonderful job today.
