Lesson Plan Date:                                 Grade Level: Kindergarten  Concept: Addition Objectives:Condition: The students will use manipulatives such as blocks to add by grouping. Behavioral Verb: The students will be able to identify addition problems by using counting blocks. Criteria:The students will have to complete 3 addition problems correctly before moving on.  Introduction: We will use real-world applications to engage the children in the lesson. The students know their numbers they are going to use their prior knowledge to group the manipulatives together to make addition problems and solve them.  Vocabulary:Addition, numbers, objects, counting, sorting, identifying, sequence, groups, biggest, smallest, more than, and less than A:Body of Lesson:The students are going to learn how to add groups by having a set of blocks that are split into two or three part with a certain number of blocks in each group.They then are going to put two or more groups of blocks together to see how many blocks there is all together.  A:Accommodations/Modifications: There will be ample time for each student to complete their work. The teacher (I) will be going around to help the children if they do not understand the lesson.  A:Multiple Intelligence(s) Addressed:A verbal explanation of the lesson along with hands on, visual, and practiced work. For visual learners there will be flashcards they are able to look at, for the kinesthetic learners there will be the objects that they can physically touch. For auditory learners there will be the directions and instructions of the activity.  Assessment: We will be using pre-assessments to see what the students know before we talk about the new topic, then we will use summative assessment to see what they learned after the lesson.  Materials: The students will be using flashcards to physically see the addition problem then they will use objects to put together to get the answer.   Standards:MA 0.2 ALGEBRA: Students will communicate algebraic concepts using multiple representations to reason, solve problems, and make connections within mathematics and across disciplines. MA 0.2.1 Algebraic Relationships: Students will demonstrate, represent, and show relationships with expressions and equations. MA 0.2.1.a Decompose numbers less than or equal to 10 into pairs in more than one way, showing each decomposition with a model, drawing, or equation (e.g., 7 = 4 + 3 and 7 = 1 + 6). MA 0.2.1.b For any number from 1 to 9, find the number that makes 10 when added to the given number, showing the answer with a model, drawing, or equation. MA 0.2.2 Algebraic Processes: Students will apply the operational properties when adding and subtracting. MA 0.2.3 Applications: Students will solve real-world problems involving addition and subtraction. MA 0.2.3.a Solve real-world problems that involve addition and subtraction within 10 (e.g., by using objects, drawings or equations to represent the problem).

This project is a four year initiative focused on integrating arts into the core curriculum through teacher education, practice, and coaching.

This phonics program was developed to serve students with diverse educational backgrounds, with a specific focus on refugees. One of the challenges in working with refugees is that, unlike international students, they come to English classes with huge variation in educational experience. Some students may have finished high school or have a college degree, while others may not have ever picked up a pencil before. The goal of this program is to provide a bridge for those students with limited literacy skills so that they are able to move on to a more traditional beginning ESL class. There are a number of assumptions about academic skills made in most English language classrooms, even at a beginning level. As a result, teachers and students alike become frustrated when those expectations are confounded.

Slideshow to practice English vocabulary related to the topic of Health Problems. Created especially for adult and adolescent English learners.

Short Description:
This course pack is designed to meet the learning outcomes for Adult Literacy Fundamental English Level 1 (roughly equivalent to beginner to grade 1.5 in the K-12 system). Every of the nine chapters includes a level-appropriate, high-interest reading of approximately 100 words. The readings are freely available in a separate reader with convenient links to the readings in each chapter of this course pack. The online version of this course pack also contains audio recordings of each story in the reader. These recordings, combined with vocabulary and word pattern exercises, prepare the Level 1 student to read each paragraph-long text with greater independence. Font size and line spacing can be adjusted in the online view, and have been enhanced for the print and PDF versions for easier reading. This course pack has been reviewed by subject experts from colleges and universities.

These recordings, combined with vocabulary and word pattern exercises, prepare the Level 1 student to read each paragraph-long text with greater independence. Depending on a learner’s readiness, you may wish to use the sentences in the Word Pattern sections as dictation. Exercises on the connections between consonant sounds and letters are beyond the scope of these books. I recommend using these books alongside a structured phonics program, such as the Wilson Reading System.

Each course pack chapter includes pre-reading questions that can be used for individual reflection or class discussion, vocabulary-building and word pattern exercises, comprehension questions, grammar lessons and practice exercises, and a writing task. Font size and line spacing can be adjusted in the online view, and have been enhanced for the print and PDF versions for easier reading.
