1. Math Methods

2. Coin recognition Values of coins Using the values of coins Counting sets of coins (including comparing two sets) Equivalent collections of coins (same amts, diff coins) Selecting coins for a given amount Making change

3. Names and Values of Coins Teach Them Coin Value – Penny 1 cent – Nickel 5 cents – Dime 10 cents – Quarter 25 cents – Half Dollar 50 centsTHEN… – http://www.321know.com/g1_coinv.htm for Practice http://www.321know.com/g1_coinv.htm

4. Chart of Values of Coins Practice game using the values of the coins http://www.321know.com/g1_coinv.htm

5. http://www.321know.com/g110_cx1.htm The best way to teach counting sets is to actually have the money (play money, of course, unless you are Brent. He is “loaded.” (lol) Then work with flash cards with pictures on them. See next slide for examples of flash cards and what they would have on them. Be able to tell what order you would use the flash cards!

6. 1 2 3 4 What order would you use these flash cards?

8. From viewing the websites, create a lesson activity you would use to teach one of the concepts mentioned in the list of concepts on the second slide. Be sure to include: – Objectives – Materials – Lesson activity – Assessment (how you will know he/she “got” it Upload to the Student Portal under March 6 Activity (include the website where you got the idea) 75 pts For, 25 more points include a statement that you looked at all this powerpoint, even the external websites.
