โญ HOW DOES THIS RESOURCE WORK?
Before the Lesson:
- Make sure every student has a pencil and a blank sheet of paper.
- Students will have opportunities to have discussions with other students. You can have students sitting together in a group or they can sit at their desks and discuss with other students that sit near them.
- Brain breaks require students to stand and move around the room.
- Choose whether you want to use the PowerPoint or Google Slides version of the presentation.
During the Lesson:
- Click through the slides at a pace appropriate for your students.
- You can read the text out loud or select students to do the reading.
- During Turn and Talks and written response times, monitor your students to make sure they are on task. Youโll need to decide when itโs time to move on to the next part of the presentation.
- All students should be engaged during the written response portions.
The presentation slides include 4 icons that will show students when they can raise their hands, discuss their thoughts with a friend, take notes, complete practice problems, and even take a quick brain break. There are very few animations so that the presentation is easy to implement, even if the teacher hasnโt looked over it beforehand.
After the Lesson:
- Comparing numbers is a true foundation of math! If your students need more practice, consider purchasing our Comparing Whole Numbers Math Kit that has everything you need!
