● Seeing the world through the eyes of a mathematician, children will see the many ways
numbers function in the world around them. In this activity, children learn that numbers
are used for different purposes. Numbers represent quantities, they identify, they are
used to measure, and also to tell relative position.
● To develop number sense, students will be introduced to the various ways the number 2
may be represented. Students will then work in their visual journals to represent 2 in the
following ways: number, words, on a tens frame, tally marks, and pictures. This will help
students grow in their understanding of how numbers work, what they mean, and how
they relate to one another and to the world around us.
● The book “I Know Numbers” by Taro Gomi will be used as a Springboard for learning, as
students will extend their thinking by learning why numbers are so important. This makes
learning relevant and meaningful.
● This lesson builds on students prior knowledge of learning the different ways to show
numbers. Note, they have already done this activity with the number one; therefor,
students should be familiar with the steps involved. Also, in the math centre during
learning stations, students have practiced representing numbers in the mentioned ways
in the form of a worksheet.
● By the end of the lesson, students have improved ability to subitize the number two.
CURRICULAR OUTCOMES
Numeracy
G.O: Develops number sense
I Can Statements
I can tell the ways numbers are used in our classroom
I can show the number 2 in different ways (dice, tally marks, tens frame, words, objects, number)
DIFFERENTIATION
● Students will be working in smaller groups (learning centers) to allow for one-on-one
assistance- students will be chosen ahead of time that will be represented on the choice
board
● Keep anecdotal record of student recognition of the number 2 (checklist)
● Whiteboard available at the centre for teacher to demonstrate
● Molly will require one-on-one assistance with the EA - special scissors (do not correct
writing, encourage independence and write the answer above in small print)
● Joseph will require guidance
● Jeremy - Alligator grip
● Reinforce scissor holding - strategies - cut extra paper first, making it easier to cut -
moving the paper with our other hand
ASSESSMENT
RESOURCES/MATERIALS
● Visual journals, pencils, erasers, whiteboard, glue, scissors, book (I Know Numbers -
Taro Gomi), dry erase markers
