This lesson plan focuses on teaching Grade 1 learners how to determine the digit of a 2-digit number, given its place value (tens or ones). The content aligns with the standard that learners should have knowledge of place value in any 2-digit number. The lesson uses a variety of interactive resources, including a place value chart, base-ten blocks, unit blocks, and integrates ICT through the use of an electronic spinning wheel for a fun, competitive activity.
Prior to the main lesson, a review is conducted using the game "Agawan Panyo" to recall the concepts of place value and value of a digit in a 2-digit number. Vocabulary like "digit" and "place value" are explicitly introduced and unlocked using a place value chart for clarity.
The core instructional method utilizes the Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract (CPA) approach to guide the learners. The lesson first uses a story about a boy named Dan who celebrates his birthday to introduce the numbers 25 and 32. In the concrete stage, base-ten blocks and unit blocks are physically placed on the place value chart to visualize the digits in the tens and ones places. In the pictorial stage, pictures of popsicle sticks (groups of ten and individual ones) serve as the model. Finally, the abstract stage uses number cards and the place value chart to transition to symbolic representation. The learning is reinforced through the "Spin the Wheel" game, where students are challenged to form a
2-digit number and then identify the corresponding digit for a given place value. The lesson concludes with a generalization activity, an evaluation worksheet, and differentiated activities for application and remediation.
Objective
At the end of the lesson, the learners should be able to determine the digit of a number, given its place value
