Content area of Problem solving.
Lesson Summary and
Focus:
In this lesson I will be teaching Grade 2 pupils how to discuss and come
up with a means of accurately measuring the size of a carpet that needs to
be placed on the floor of a given room. The pupils will be learning how to
effectively communicate amongst each other and come up with
meaningful solutions to different sets of questions.
Classroom and
Student
Factors/Grouping:
The most vital issues that need to be placed into consideration while
enacting these lesson include the fact that the classroom is made up of a
wide variety of kids, as in, these kids come from different social
orientations, do not share the same personalities, go through different
experiences at home and have varying learning abilities and skills. Putting
all these aspects into deep consideration, there is a deep-rooted need to
come up with a wide variety of learning and teaching strategies that will
enable each student to adequately acquire the requisite knowledge by
grasping all the information that I instill in class.
National/State
Learning Standards:
At the end of the lesson the grade two students must have achieved the
following learning standards:
i. CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.MD.A.1
ii. CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.MD.A.2
iii. CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.MD.A.3
iv. CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.MD.A.4
Specific Learning The grade two pupils will learn various aspects of mathematics ranging

Target(s)/Objectives: from algebra and mathematical operations pertaining to addition and
subtraction, numbers and operations in base 10, measurement and data to
geometry. They will be able to learn how to measure the size of a carpet
needed for a given room size and record the measurements in the requisite
standard units.

The ability to comprehend and classify the key terms that are listed above
will enable the students to break-down, internalize and intellectualize key
math concepts that are taught during the lesson. I will use the discussion
approach in teaching these terms whereby, the pupils will be required to
discuss these terms amongst themselves and give there meanings. I will
then give them the meaning of the terms as indicated by the syllabus.
Resources, Materials,
Equipment, and
Technology:
Tape measure, paper clips, markers, Math Ed tech games

Anticipatory set
 I will use a visual of a room and ask the pupils to describe how they would
commence and carry out the process of measuring the floor of the aforementioned
room.
 I will record the pupil’s thoughts on the white board and ask more questions
about the process of measurement and recording of data obtained from
measurement exercises.
