Subjects: mathematics Standard: CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.3.NF.A.1 Objectives: Students will learn a circle in two pieces in equal size. Materials: Six inches paper plates, scissors, crayons, charts paper Manipulative Activity 1-Display a paper plate. Ask the students to describe the plate. 2- Say, “let pretend that the plate is s cookie and I want to share it with my friend”. 3- Ask, how much should I give to my friend? 4- Demonstrate cutting the plate into two unequal parts. 5- Hold the pieces up and ask the students if there are the same. 6- Ask the students,” how can divide the plate so that I can get two equal parts. 7- Demonstrate several examples of cutting the plates in equal size. 8- Show the students two halves. Ask them if there are the same size. 9- Ask, “How …show more content…

Materials: Paper plate, marker, and scissors Activities 1-Give the student a paper plate 2- Ask the student to color the paper plate as they are using multicolor of the marker. 3- Then ask the student to turn their plate in the puzzle. 4- Ask each student “how equal pieces do you want this puzzle to be?” This is an opportunity to talk about fraction in an Art class. Assessment Observe the class and get an idea of who is having trouble with cutting the paper plate in equal size. Subject: Music/Movement Objective: The student will develop an understanding of the whole and half (note) Materials: a paper plate picture of the music notes 1- Let the students that fraction lets you divide up a measure of music into notes 2 – Then show the students that picture below. 3- Explain the large open circle can be thought as a whole note. The two filled circles are half notes which have two beats apiece. Assignment Ask the student to sing a song (Little Stars) and clap out the song with the students. Observe who has trouble with the music part, also, who do not understand the fraction
