LESSON 12 : SKIP COUNTING CHART & NUMBER SENSE
ATTENTION :
**** MM assignment should be done in the rickshaw/ car/ kitchen / lift/ playground... never sitting on a study desk.
**** Turn these exercise in to fun filled games.
**** Never see / carry/ refer any printed paper/ worksheet / chart.... ALL SHOULD BE IN MIND
#1) knowing the value
- say the whole no three hundred and fifty
#2) knowing the digits
- say the digits for three hundred and fifty = 3-5-0
#3) counting forwards
#2) knowing the digits
- say the digits for three hundred and fifty = 3-5-0
#3) counting forwards
- to be able to skip count forward from any given no
--e.g. skip count by 50 from 600 : 650, 700, 750...
#4) counting backward
--e.g. skip count by 50 from 600 : 650, 700, 750...
#4) counting backward
--- to be able to skip count backward from any given no
--e.g. skip count by 50 from 600 : 550, 500, 450, 400
5) greater and lesser
105 < 1050
350> 305

Class 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 : Count by 5 . 10, 50, 100, 500, 1000 : forward and backward
We have been using play currency to help kids understand the application of counting by 5/ 10/ 20/ 50/ 100/ 500/ 1000
Yes counting to the value of 20000 rs is being done in class
Back at home you are requested to practise saying go as far as your can ( SMILE AND ENCOURAGING YOUR CHILD)
10 - 20 - 30 - .............110 - 120 - 130 - 140 - 150 - ........270 - 280 - 290 - 300 - 310....
55- 60 - 65 - 70 - 75 - 80.....
500 - 1000- 1500- 2000 - 2500
1000 - 2000 - 3000- 4000......
and so on.
if kids can practise forward at home.. then i will get extra time to work on backward, the kids truly struggle here!
i don't recommend worksheet/ writing....mental development and verbal accuracy is the focus
Most importantly
don't say one -fifty five
emphasise on saying one hundred and fifty five and four thousand five hundred.
Play with kids monopoly, let them use their counting skills in the game
this toy which is a look alike of indian currency could be brought in if u don't have monopoly game... create play/ learning opportunities
reward them with the money for
task completed 10/-
initiative taken: 20/-
idea suggested for problem 50/-
helped a needy 100/-
shows responsibility 500/-
finished a library book 1000/-
Thanks

DAY 8: MATH CONVERSATION : TIME : NUMBER SENSE
Six Step Math Conversation Process
1. Teacher presents the problem
2. Students figure the answer mentally (wait time)
3. Students share their answers
4. Students share their thinking- justify answers
5. Class agrees on “real answer”
6. Steps are repeated for additional problems
Number sense is important because it encourages students to think flexibly and promotes confidence with numbers—they “make friends with numbers”. Students come to understand that numbers are meaningful and outcomes are sensible and expected. It is a part of children’s daily mathematical lives and slowly grows and develops over time. In a problem-centered mathematics curriculum, number sense is closely tied to problem solving, as the children described above show. These children have learned, over time, that they are capable of solving problems and that they can play with numbers to make sense of a problem. They have used their growing number sense to develop strategies to help them solve problems.
