Lynda S Heath D237 Task 1 June 15, 2022 A. Hands on tools 1. Dual Lateral Spinners a. The two-sided spinners will be used to discover the expectations for the math problems. b. They are valuable to aid in the learning of the math concepts. Since the students can see the numbers on the spinners, it will allow them to build on their own mathematical skills or knowledge. c. The spinners can break easily causing the student’s answers or equations to be accurate. 2. Pattern blocks a. You can use pattern blocks in different ways to complete math concepts. Such as sorting, shape identification, and building different patterns. b. One of the useful ways for batter blocks for math concepts is the fact that the students can touch, build, and see the same shapes that are in their math books or on their worksheets. c. If any of your students that have any type of disabilities or limitations the patter blocks may be difficult to use. 3. Base Five Pieces a. A teacher can use these to teach their students about place value in subtraction and addition equations. b. The students will be able to see the numbers and will be able to solve their schoolwork more easily. c. A problem that may arise while using the base five pieces is that they may be difficult for the students that may have physical disabilities or limitations. 4. Color tiles a. These can be used for mainly addition and subtraction. b. They will let the student see or create physical versions of their addition and subtraction equations or problems. They can be used to teach sorting by colors and making easy patterns. c. One of the many challenges for the color tiles would be if you had a student who was color blind and could not see the colors of the tiles. This would cause some difficulty for the student to perform the equations/lesson correctly. B. Virtual Tool 1. Dice https://www.didax.com/apps/dice/ Instructional use : By using the dice during a math lesson will allow the students to add, subtract, multiply, divide, or use to get a number that is close to the target number. Benefits : The benefits of using dice during math helps to strengthen the recognition of numbers, understanding of base 10, and addition and subtraction. Challenges : One of the challenges of using online dice during a math activity is that you can’t physically touch them, instructions may not be clear on how to enter the problem, you don’t find the answer of the problem on your own, and technology can fail.

2. Pattern Shapes https://www.didax.com/apps/pattern-blocks/ Instructional Use : With this program the students will gain an understanding of the properties of shapes, fractions, and will be able to create precise figures at ease of the program. Students will be able to use the use the program to measure angles, change the shapes, size, and color of forms and record their answers. The program is scaled for elementary and middle school students, and with the bright colors of the different shapes it will allow the creative flows to flow with the students. Benefits : Didax benefit of using it in the classroom is that the teachers can use it as a demonstration tool, it can help the students explain their thought process, you can build virtual centers, it can be used at home, and it gives your students the practice of using virtual tools. Challenges : You can’t touch or feel, there are no instructions or capability on how to enter the math problem, it may make you think abstractly, it doesn’t allow you to get the answer on your own, and technology cannot be reliable all the time. 3. Place Value Disk https://www.didax.com/apps/place-value/ Instructional use: Using the place value disk during instructional helps the students make connections between numbers and number language. The disk will allow the students to see that a number is made up of different parts. The students will be to see the value of each place. Benefits : One of the benefits of using the place value disk is it will allow the foundation to be built on regrouping, multiple-digits multiplication, and as well in other areas of math. Challenges: One of the challenges of using the virtual programs is technology not working. Also, if students are hands on learners using a computer program may be harder for them to understand what is going on. 4. Number Lines – https://www.coolmath4kids.com/manipulatives/number-line Instructional Use: Number lines is an online math manipulative that helps students to develop a greater flexibility in mental math as they create math meaning, number sense, and understanding number relations. Benefits: One of the advantages of using math programs such as cool math games are that it improves the students in the areas recognizing different patterns, recall, hand-eye coordination, and strengthen their memories. Challenges: Using math manipulatives all the time can slow down our development in math. We can become dependent on them and not allow ourselves to develop a more mental math way of solving the problems. Part Two

Part C Some of the tools that I will use during my lesson will be the shapes pattern blocks and virtual ones as well. By using the shape pattern blocks the students will be able to use them as a visual and hands on. They will be able to touch the different shapes. They will be able to trace the shapes with their pencils on a piece of paper. They will be able to use them to make new shapes. By using the computer program, it will allow them to use technology to make their new shapes. The program that I would use is https://www.mathplayground.com/. Part E. 1. The lesson plan that I have prepared will use conceptual understanding will the students use the shape patterns to make new shapes. They will be able to see and feel each angle and corner of the shapes. 2. The lesson plan that I have prepared will help with problem solving using the pattern worksheet that I will provide. The worksheet will ask the students to tell us how many sides and corners that each shape has. 3. The lesson plan that I have prepared will incorporate different fluency with all the different shapes that will be used.

Modeling during this lesson is critical to the lesson. The modeling will spark any questions in the beginning that they may have regarding the different shapes. I will use different signals or hand gestures for the different shapes, angles, or corners. The modeling will help the students to identify the shapes.
