Lesson Note and Plan on Mathematics

Addition of whole numbers


Subject: Mathematics
Theme: Basic operations
Topic: Addition of whole numbers
Date: dd/mm/yyyy
Class: Basic 1
Duration: 35 Minutes
No of Learners: 30

Learning Objectives:

By the end of the lesson learners should be able to:
1) add two whole numbers from 1 to 3 with sum less than 5
2 + 1 = 3
2) add two or three whole numbers from 1 to 8 with sum not up to 10
5 + 4 = 9
3) add two or three numbers from 0 to 9 with sum not greater than 18
7 + 9 = 16
4) add 2-digit whole numbers with sum not greater than 40 without exchanging or renaming
14 + 23 = 37
5) cross check numeracy in addition is readable, i.e solve story problems involving addition.
1) two apples plus five apples equals seven apples
2) three extra apples to the seven apples equals ten apples
3) total amount of two apples, one apple and six apples is nine apples
4) one apple, three apples and two apples in all give six apples
5) one apple, three apples and two apples all together give six apples


Rationale:

The lesson will equip the learners with different strategies that they can use to solve real world problems. In our society, learners are always engaging themselves in situations involving quantities. They are always trying to put things together, join them and even break them into pieces while trying to make sense out of it. Exposing them to a variety of word problems involving addition such as buying things with friends and family, etc.

Step 1.
Group Work (5 mins)
The teacher guides the learners to form four groups and asks them to choose their leaders and secretaries. Learners choose their group leaders and secretaries. Inculcating leadership skills, competitive spirit, cooperation, teamwork and a sense of responsibility among learners.
The teacher introduce the concept using countable manipulatives (physical objects)
The teacher asks learners to count: a) the numbers of persons they have in there group
b) the numbers of fingers in your left and right hands and add them together.
Learners added corectly the countable manipulatives (physical objects)
a) four persons in a group.
b) five fingers on the left hand, five fingers on the right hand added together gives ten fingers.
Through practical demonstrations using concrete objects and shapes, guide the pupils to discover the concept of addition.

The teacher guides the learners to use a number line in counting on.
  • Addition 12

If the sum is 2 + 3, for example, learners can put their finger on the two to start with, and then count up three places to reach 5. They no longer need to count out the 2 first to reach the solution. Etc.

Counting Up
The teacher guides the pupils to use the same “counting up” strategy in their heads to carryout horizontal addition.
Example
4 + 3
i) Learners start with a closed first and say “4”.
ii) Learners then count up “5, 6, 7”, extending three fingers one at a time.
iii) Learners now have three fingers extended (i.e three steps). They started with a 4 in their first and then counted up 3 steps, so the answer is 7.
The teacher guides learners to sum the following numbers.
1) 1 + 1 = [ ]
2) 0 + 2 = [ ]
3) 5 + 0 = [ ]
4) 1 + 3 = [ ]

For three digits whole numbers, add the first two digits or the last two digits, then add the results as two digits numbers

5) 5 + 0 + 9 = [ ]
6) 7 + 4 + 3 = [ ]
7) 8 + 4 + 5 = [ ]
8) 6 + 5 + 4 = [ ]
9) 6 + 4 + 5 = [ ]
10) 3 + 5 + 7 = [ ]
Learners sum the numbers correctly
1) 1 + 1 = [2]
2) 0 + 2 = [2]
3) 5 + 0 = [5]
4) 1 + 3 = [4]

5) 5 + 0 + 9 =
5 + 9 = [14]

6) 7 + 4 + 3 =
11 + 3 or 7 + 7 = [14]

7) 8 + 4 + 5 =
12 + 5 or 8 + 9 = [17]

8) 6 + 5 + 4 =
11 + 4 or 6 + 9 = [15]

9) 6 + 4 + 8 =
10 + 8 or 6 + 12 = [18]

10) 3 + 5 + 7 =
8 + 7 or 3 + 12 = [15]

Finding the ten
The teacher introduces the learners to a mental mathematics trick that will help learners develop their procedural fluency.
Instead of adding two numbers together as they are, the learners are encourage to add them up to 10, and then add the remainder to that 10.
For example, the process for
7 + 5 is:
To turn 7 into 10, we need 3 (7 + 3 = 10)
To turn that 3 into 5, we need 2 (3 + 2 = 5)
therefore. 10 + 2 = 12 is equivalent to 7 + 5 = 12

NOTE: This method is used only when the numbers can be added up to ten

The teacher guides the learners to use mental mathematics to sum the following whole numbers
1) 9 + 8 = -----
2) 7 + 6 = -----
3) 4 + 7 = -----

The teacher guides learners to add 2-digit whole numbers with sum not greater than 40 using horizontal methed Learners add 2-digit whole numbers with sum not greater than 40 using horizontal methed
1) 14 + 23
= 10 + 4 + 20 + 3
= 10 + 20 + 4 + 3
= 30 + 7 = 37
