The learning objective of the Mathematics lesson was to add one to a number, up to 10.
Students were divided in pairs and each pair was given a ten-frame and ten snap cubes. A number was given to them, and they had to count that amount of snap cubes and put them on the ten-frame, then each time adding another snap-cube to the amount already told. Finally they had to count the snap cubes together.
They were also presented with an interactive presentation. They had to add one more Gingerbread man.
With these two activities students learnt that when they add ‘one’ to a number ‘the answer’ is always the following number.
Children’s involvement levels indicated that they enjoyed themselves throughout this learning objective.
