Classroom Procedure

Every lesson plan provides you with a classroom procedure page that outlines a step-by-step guide to follow. You do not have to follow the guide exactly. The guide helps you organize the lesson and details when to hand out worksheets. It also lists information in the blue box that you might find useful. You will find the lesson objectives, state standards, and number of class sessions the lesson should take to complete in this area. In addition, it describes the supplies you will need as well as what and how you need to prepare beforehand.

Options for Lesson

Included with this lesson is an “Options for Lesson” section that lists a number of suggestions for activities to add to the lesson or substitutions for the ones already in the lesson.

For example, have the students count the number of worksheets they need to hand out to ensure everyone gets one. Ask students to keep the calendar or remind you when it is time to go somewhere by looking at the clock. Tell students you have a certain amount of money to spend on supplies. Give them a list with prices and ask them if you have enough money to buy them. Play games where keeping score is required. For example, have students line up in birthday order. Keeping students active and engaged is the best way to learn to love math.

Teacher Notes

The teacher notes page includes a paragraph with additional guidelines and things to think about as you begin to plan your lesson. This page also includes lines that you can use to add your own notes as you’re preparing for this lesson.
