Lesson

Use the “Mathematics Tables” document to brainstorm ideas for a Math Lesson Plan for Age 3 to Age 4.

Use the format of one of the “Lesson Plan Templates” as a resource and include the following:

1. Clear, measurable learning objectives that align to early learning standards (ELS) as well as your state’s subject standards.
2. Anticipatory set
3. Vocabulary
4. Reasoning and problem-solving
5. Relevant materials and resources including visual or audio resources
6. Differentiation of instruction to address the diverse needs of students. Name the differentiation strategies used to achieve individual learning outcomes.
7. Assessments

Implement the mathematics lesson plan in an Age 3 to Age 4 classroom.

Write a 500-750-word reflection based on the feedback you received from your cooperating teacher and personal observations about the experience, explain the following:

1. Strengths and opportunities for growth. Provide specific evidence from your activity.
2. How did you meet the needs of different learning styles in your lesson? What were the students’ responses?
3. How well did your problem-solving and inquiry strategies work to address the diverse needs of students with disabilities, that struggled, or that needed enrichment?
4. What changes will you implement in your next lesson? Be sure to provide specific examples.
