Daily Lesson Plan -- Lesson 16

Number 15

Subject: Maths | Class: Playgroup | Series: Skillford

Overview

This lesson introduces the number 15. Learners look at a big picture of fifteen ducklings swimming in a sunny pond and count them together. On the second day they trace the number 15 with a finger and a pencil and colour the ducklings. On the third day they complete the activities page: colouring the deer with 15 spots, finding the group of fifteen and joining it to the number, and counting the honeybees. All talk is oral and playful. Learners count objects; they are not expected to add or read long sentences.

Day 1: Look and Say (30 minutes)

Materials

  • Textbook page 57
  • Fifteen toy animals (farm and jungle, if you have them)
  • A timer (a kitchen timer or a screen timer)
  • Building blocks (fifteen per group)
  • A blue cloth or sheet of paper to be the "pond" (optional)

Circle Time Warm-Up (5 minutes)

  • Sit the learners in a circle and sing a counting song from 1 to 10
  • Draw a big 15 in the air with your finger and ask learners to copy you
  • Say "fifteen" slowly three times together
  • Clap fifteen times, counting each clap aloud

Little Explorers (5 minutes)

  • Show the fifteen toy animals
  • Sort them together into two groups, farm animals and jungle animals
  • Count each group aloud, then count all of the animals together: "1, 2, 3 ... 15"
  • Ask: "How many animals are there?" (fifteen)

Look and Say (10 minutes)

  • Open page 57 and point to the big red 15. Say "fifteen" and learners repeat
  • Read the words in the cloud: "Fifteen Ducklings"
  • Point to the ducklings one at a time and count aloud together up to 15
  • Count the rows: three rows of four ducklings and one row of three at the bottom, then all of them together
  • Ask: "Where are the ducklings?" (in the water) "What colour are they?" (yellow)
  • Ask: "What else can you see by the pond?" Accept rocks, ferns, trees and flowers
  • Count the ducklings a second time, with learners tapping the page
  • Play "Show me fifteen": say "fifteen" and learners hold up ten fingers, then five more (a whole hand)

Little Innovators (5 minutes)

  • Show the timer and set it for fifteen seconds
  • Count along aloud together from 1 until it rings
  • Ask: "Did we reach fifteen when the timer rang?" Try again if you like

Little Builders (4 minutes)

  • Give each group fifteen blocks
  • Learners build a little zoo wall, counting each block as it goes on
  • Stop and count all fifteen together at the end

Wrap-Up (1 minute)

  • Hold up the page and ask: "How many ducklings?" Learners say "fifteen"
  • Wave goodbye to the ducklings: "Bye-bye, ducklings!"

Differentiation

  • Support: Count only the first row with the learner, then the next row, then put the counts together; let shy learners point instead of speaking
  • Extension: Ask confident learners to count the ducklings backwards from 15 to 1

Day 2: Trace the Number (30 minutes)

Materials

  • Textbook page 58
  • Crayons
  • Pencils
  • Fifteen toy animals (or counters)
  • A sand tray or a tray of salt (optional)

Warm-Up (5 minutes)

  • Show page 57 again and count the fifteen ducklings together
  • Say the number name: "fifteen"
  • Sing the counting song up to 15

Little Thinkers (5 minutes)

  • Put the fifteen toy animals on the table
  • Count them together, touching each one
  • Now sort them into groups of five: put five in the first hoop or circle, five in the second and five in the third
  • Ask: "How many groups of five?" (three) "How many animals altogether?" (fifteen)

Finger Tracing (6 minutes)

  • Open page 58 and point to the big white 15 next to the fifteen ducklings
  • Count the ducklings drawn on the page: three rows of five
  • Let the learners run a finger along the 15, then colour it in
  • Show the stroke: for 1, draw a straight line from the top to the bottom. For 5, make a "hat" across the top, then a "neck" down, then a fat, round "belly"

Trace the Number (8 minutes)

  • Hand out pencils and check the grip (pinch the pencil, rest it on the middle finger)
  • Work through the traced rows together, one line at a time
  • Rows 1 and 2: trace the dotted 15, following the green arrows
  • Rows 3 and 4: learners try to make a 15 from each dot, with your hand over their hand if needed. Say the directions aloud as they write: "hat, neck, belly"
  • Praise every try: "Lovely tall 1 and a fat round belly for 5!"

Little Artists (5 minutes)

  • Give out crayons
  • Colour the fifteen ducklings on page 58, counting each one as it is coloured
  • Ask: "How many ducklings have you coloured?" Learners say "fifteen"

Wrap-Up (1 minute)

  • Draw 15 in the air one last time and say "fifteen"
  • Remind parents to finish with the matching pages in the Activity Book

Differentiation

  • Support: Use a thick crayon for tracing; hold the learner's hand for the first row
  • Extension: Let confident learners write a big 15 on the board with a marker

Day 3: Activities (30 minutes)

Materials

  • Textbook page 59
  • Crayons and pencils
  • Fifteen counters or cubes
  • Yellow paper circles for honeybees (optional)

Warm-Up (5 minutes)

  • Count to 15 together while clapping
  • Show fifteen counters and count them, then show a smaller group and ask: "Is this fifteen?"

Activity 1: Colour the Deer with 15 Spots (8 minutes)

  • Open page 59 and look at the three little deer
  • Count the spots on the first deer together, touching each one
  • Do the same for the other two deer
  • Ask: "Which deer has fifteen spots?" Learners colour that deer
  • Say together: "Fifteen spots"

Activity 2: Find the Group of Fifteen (8 minutes)

  • Look at the groups around the big 15: shooting stars, beach balls, lemons and cherries
  • Count each group together
  • Ask: "Which group has fifteen?" Learners join the group of fifteen to the 15
  • Say together: "Fifteen lemons"

Activity 3: How Many Honeybees? (7 minutes)

  • Look at the honeybees in three rows
  • Count them together, touching each one: 1 to 15
  • Ask: "How many honeybees are there?" (fifteen)
  • Learners write the number 15 in the box

Wrap-Up (2 minutes)

  • Hold up fifteen fingers (ten, then five more) and say "fifteen"
  • Praise the class: "You counted all the way to fifteen!"

Differentiation

  • Support: Count in small groups of 5 and mark each group with a finger; let learners touch the pictures as they count
  • Extension: Ask confident learners to count the lemons in rows and say how many rows there are and how many lemons are in each row

Teaching Tips (from textbook)

  • Direct your students to draw a straight line from the top to the bottom for 1
  • For 5, make a hat, then a neck, then a fat, round belly
  • Repeat the directions as they write to help them stay on track
