Teacher: Nuryantika Ismail Grade Level: 1st
Prerequisites: To be able to do this lesson, the students have to at least know their numbers and
the value of each number.
Before: (5 min) Prior to beginning the activity, I will explain to the class that today we will
continue to learn how to compare two two-digit numbers. I also will tell the class that we will
watch a video Comparing Numbers: 2-Digit Numbersfrom YouTube. Before I start the video, I
will ask my students if they have any questions, then after that I will start the lesson.
During: ((15-25 min whole group) depending on how fast they understand the lesson) During the
lesson, I will ask the students to get their slate, eraser, and marker. Next, I write two, two-digit
numbers (random numbers), and make the model on the board (two group). Then I will ask the
students if they can tell me which number is largest (greatest) or smallest (less), after they give
me the answer (the students should write the answer on their slate), I will circle the answer. Next,
I will do the same step as I did before and ask the students to write the answer on their slate and
they have to make the model, write the digit, and circle the answer. I will try several times until I
see that my students understand what they are supposed to do with comparing the numbers.
While we work on it, I will use place value to help them separate the numbers if they look
confused.
After: (5 min whole group) After the lesson, I will ask my students if they have any questions
about comparing the numbers. Then I will show them what they have to do in each of the
stations.
Technology: Laptop, Internet, smartboard
Reflection
With this lesson, most of my students have no problem comparing the numbers. However, some
of my students still have difficulty because they still need to work on their numbers. I really like
using the slate for the students to give me their answer because this is one of the easiest ways to
engage my students with the lesson. Using the slate also helps me to get immediate feedback and
I know right away what I should do to help my students before the end of the lesson. At the end
of the lesson, I give my students an exit ticket to work individually. The exit ticket is just for me
to use as a measurement if my students reach my learning objective. When I collect my students
exit tickets after they are finished, I can tell that most of them got the right answer, which tells
me that the lesson objective was met.
