This is the sixth lesson of this unit. For our virtual class, our goal for this lesson is simple and clear: Students will be able to compare numbers by recognizing place values by the end of this lesson with above 90% accuracy.. I only have 30 mins for this lesson, and I am the new teacher to students. The most important part, due to the internet problem, students can’t access many websites and softwares. It’s hard for me to do the differentiated teaching. The differentiated teaching that I tried is to provide extra help they can learn offline, also for the online interactive, I 6 TEACH-NOW Lesson Plan Template try to differentiate the content to provide choice for students who need different support. ‘ Formative assessment: ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ Exit tickets Hand signals Teacher observation Worksheets Classroom discussion Q&A Materials and Resources for Lesson Materials, Technology, and Websites Chinese provincial area data worksheet for class Ipad or computer Required Preparation I will collect area data from different provinces (from students’ hometown will be better), to make some personal connections with students and engage them in this lesson. I will provide some differentiated place value mat/chart for students for dice and spinner activity. I will prepare the Ipad or computer for kahoot.
