CONCEPT

DEVELOPMENT

The teacher

• Draws the following on the chalkboard.

• Asks: How do you break 15 down into tens and ones? (15 is one ten and 5 ones or 10 + 5.)

• Records this in the boxes below the15 (drawn on the board).

• Completes the other 3 boxes on the board, asking different learners to come up to the board and discussing the solutions as they are done. (26 is 2 tens and 6 ones, 47 is 4 tens

and 7 ones, 62 is 6 tens and 2 ones)

CLASS ACTIVITY

The teacher

• Gives each pair a 100 board and 10 bottle tops.

• Revises counting forwards and backwards in 10s and 5s with 100 with the learners.

• Using the bottle tops, asks the learners to put them on the numbers 91 to 100 one by one.

• When the learners get to 99 asks them how many tens and ones in 99 ?( 9 tens and 9 ones)

• Asks them what number will come next?

• Discusses a 100 as ten groups of 10.

ACTVITY II

The teacher

• Draws a number line in intervals of 10 to 100 on the board.

• Asks the learners what can you tell me about this number line?

• Discusses with them the intervals of ten.

• Count forwards and backwards to 100 in 10s with the learners.

• Using the number line asks learners questions such as: What is 10 more than 40? What is 10 less than 90?

• Repeats using a variety of numbers.

• Draws the number line below on the board in 5s from 0–100.

• Asks the learners what can you tell me about this number line?

• Discusses with them the intervals of five.

• Counts forwards and backwards to 100 in 5s with the learners.

• Using the number line, asks learners questions such as: What is 5 more than 55? What is 5 less than 95?

• Repeats using a variety of numbers.

Pupils pay attention and participate

STEP 2

CONCEPT

DEVELOPMENT

The teacher

• Sticks the number symbol and name cards for numbers 21 to 50 in a random order on

the board.

• Places the cards in the correct order while the learners read the number names.

• Asks the learners to look at numbers 21 to 50.

• Asks the learners if they notice anything special about these numbers.

What do they notice? (Possible answers may involve odd numbers/even numbers/tens and units.)

CLASS ACTIVITY

The teacher

• Draws a 90 to 100 number line on the board.

• Calls on different learners to come to the board and fill in these numbers: 99, 91, 93, 97, 92, 94, 96, 95, 98.

• When the number line labelling is complete, discusses the following questions with the learners:

- Which number is one less than 94? (93)

- One more than 94? (95)

- Two less than 94? (92)

- Two more than 94? (96)

• Asks many such questions using different numbers in the range 90-100.

ACTIVITY II

The teacher

• Draws 2 place value tables on the boards.

• Pastes the number names 26 and 14 on the board above the place value tables.

• Asks a learner to show 26 in the first table using base ten kits.

• Asks another learner to show 14 in the second table using base ten kits.

• Asks the learners the following questions:

- Which number is bigger? (26)

- How many more tens in 26 than in 14? (2 tens in 26 and 1 ten in 14, 1 more ten in 26)

- How many ones in 14?(4)

- How many more ones do I need to make 14 up to 20?(6)

- Discusses other pairs of numbers in a similar way.

• Compares 57 and 32 (57 is bigger. 57 has 5 tens and 32 has 3 tens)

• Compares 66 and 86 (86 is bigger. 86 has 8 tens and 66 has 6 tens)

• Compares 56 and 26 (26 is smaller. 26 has 2 tens and 56 has 5 tens)

• Compares 73 and 37 (37 is smaller. 37 has 3 tens and 73 has 7 tens)

Pupils pay attention and participate

STEP 3

CLASS-WORK

Note: Learners can use their base ten kits when they do this activity if they would like to.

1 Arrange these numbers from the smallest to the biggest: 30, 25, 29, 21.

2 Give two numbers that are bigger than 25.

3 Give two numbers that are smaller than 25.

STEP 5

SUMMARY

The teacher summarizes by reminding the pupils that in today’s lesson we found out that 100 comes after 99 when we are counting in 1s. We also worked with numbers between 0 and 99 to compare them to find the bigger/smaller number of a pair of numbers and to say how much bigger/smaller they are.

She marks their class works, makes corrections where necessary and commends them positively
