I chose to do two non-written tickets because my students are pre-kindergarten and they do better with interactive play. I want to be sure that they all participate in this exit ticket. The class helper and I will demonstrate what they will be doing before beginning the activity. Non-Written: I will give them a blank sheet of paper with some crayons for drawing and coloring. They will be asked to draw their favorite fruit and color it. When they are done, they will stand by their seat.…

double-digit addition problems (place value, empty number line, break apart). Ask student, “Do you think we could use some of these same strategies to find the sum of three-digit numbers?” “Today, we are going to use those same strategies to solve three-digit addition problems.” 2. Objective/EQ: During math today, we are going to play a game that includes adding two three-digit numbers using the place value strategy (includes base ten blocks), the empty number line strategy, or the break apart…

Find out the numbers that has the greatest value a) 5.3 b) 4.99 c) 5.198 d) 5.04896 Children should have the ability to compare, order ad represent decimals (11, ACMNA105). The correct answer for the above question is 5.3. Some of the misconceptions could be:  some students may choose 4.99, with the misconception that 99 is the highest number, without considering the whole number, in which 4 is less than 5.  Students may rule out 4.99, compare the other three numbers, and choose 5…

Reasons for selection Stone Fox, by John Reynolds Gardiner, written in 1980, tells the story of a boy, living with his grandfather, who must find a way to save his grandfather’s farm from the tax collector. Gardiner tells this story of a boy, set in Wyoming, where sled dogs were common and $500 was enough for a farmer to lose his farm. The idea for the story was originally heard by the author in 1974 and the ending was “reported to have happened” (Gardiner 1980). The film was later made into…

Specifically, how old is counting? When was representing quantities thought of? Where did it start? Counting originated based on the needs of societies. For example, a primitive society did not need more than a few numbers to manage their life, while a more advanced society needed more than a few numbers to…

to discovering decimals. Although decimals are introduced in fourth grade they are continuously presented in math thereafter. One common misconception held about decimals is the idea that the more digits that are presented in a number, the greater the value of the number. An example of this is students believing that 3 is less than 0.7648 when this is definitely not the case. This misconception is related to Mariam Small’s third big idea where it is stated that by something about mathematical…

Part B Diagnostic Assessment During the diagnostic assessment which focused on grade three student, Boris’s comprehension of number placement and value, Boris did well in most areas, with minimal exceptions. Boris took a great deal of time, when requested to partition the double digit the number. Though they progressed to partitioning the larger numbers in a standard and acceptable non-standard manner, they answered the two digit partitioning question with various multiplication equations.…

possible 334 points. The teacher will divide the number of points earned, 299, by the total possible points, 334, with the answer of 0.895. The teacher then multiplied this answer by 100 creating the number 89.5. This number is able to be rounded to the nearest ten percent, 90%. The student achieved the qualification for a grade of A. The student would not be given the grade of A if the teacher truncates the whole number. Truncating the number to the nearest whole, would leave the student…

Ten fingers. What can we count on ten fingers? Most of you could count how many siblings you have, how many days until winter break, or how much money you have in your backpack. For me, I can count how many schools I've been to so far in my life, 8. It may not seem like a lot but consider they are towns, cities, and even countries apart.People say it's easier for me since I was "little" and I won't remember the friends I've made or worry about customs I had to change from moving to a different…

the list goes on. I had a notebook in the third grade in which I would write numbers from one and beyond. Unfortunately that list was never finished; the fact that one could begin to write numbers from the day they were born to the day they would die and would not even be close to infinity is both scary and fascinating to me. This blew my eight year old mind. It sparked this passion in me to expand my knowledge of numbers, how they work and why they worked. Now I’m engaged in Calculus trying to…
