I.  Preparing (to plan for instruction)

·       Materials:

Alabama Course of Study:  Mathematics, page 22, children’s literature:  Little Number Stories:  Subtraction, dry-erase boards, overhead, overhead transparencies (2-digit subtraction problems)

·       Objectives:   The students will:

1.     (Application) work with two-digit subtraction problem,

2.     (Comprehension) identify the sums by playing Bingo,

3.     (Synthesis) create four subtraction problems for homework.

·       Grade Level:  Second  

 

II.   Orienting (to establish purpose, build background, sustain motivation, and provide directions)

·       Anticipatory Sets: The teacher will read the book Little Number Stories: Subtraction, to review subtraction.  The teacher will explain that today they will learn to subtract using two digits.  The teacher will say, “We are going to play a Bingo game to make learning subtraction easy.”

·       Purpose:  The teacher will say, “When we finish today, you will be able to subtract two-digit numbers without any questions.”  You will be able to look at 24 donuts and tell how many are left when someone eats 10 donuts.

·       Connection to previous learning/ Build background knowledge:  The teacher will say, “I know all of you can subtract one-digit numbers.  Today, we will discuss and demonstrate mathematical subtraction problems.

 

III.           Presenting (to use sequential direct instruction)

·       Teaching Procedures:

·       The teacher will define “subtraction.”  The teacher will review, “single digit subtraction.”

·       The teacher will say, “We are going to work two digit subtraction problems.”

·       The teacher will show several problems on the board. 

·       The teacher will explain mathematical steps involved in two-digit subtraction.  

·       The teacher will show the transparencies on subtraction.  

·       The teacher will review two-digit subtraction problems.

 

IV.           Practicing and Summarizing (to reinforce and extend ideas)

·       Review:

·       (Application) The teacher will call on volunteers to make up two-digit subtraction problems.                                                                                                        

·       ( Analysis) the teacher will call on volunteers to tell us how to work the problem.

·       (Comprehension )  The teacher will call on volunteers to work a two-digit subtraction problem on the board.

·       Guided Practice:

·       The teacher will pass out everyone a bingo card.

·       The teacher will ask everyone to get out paper and a pencil.

·       The teacher will give the students problems to work one at time.  If the student has the correct answer on his or her bingo card they will put down a chip. The teacher will continue to play bingo until someone wins, while making sure each student is able to subtract two digit numbers.

·       Independent Practice:

·       The teacher will ask everyone to get out his or her dry erase boards and markers.

·       The teacher will divide students into groups of two.  They  may help each other.

·       The teacher will instruct the students to work four problems, then let each assigned partner check the other student’s work.

 

V.             Assessment: (to check for attainment of objectives)

·       Summarizing:

·       The teacher will say, "Today, we learned how to subtract two-digit numbers and how to create our own subtraction problems.”  I want everybody to go home and make up at least four two-digit subtraction problems and bring them back to share with the class.

The teacher will use a checklist to assess the guided practice and independent practice activities.  The checklist will have the objectives listed as column headings.  Checks and minuses will be used to determine attainment.  For enrichment, the teacher will increase numbers and include regrouping.  For remediation, children will be allowed to ask questions and review with other students.  They might also need to review and master one-digit subtraction.
