MAFS.K.CC.2.5: Count to answer how many? questions
about as many as 20 things arranged in a line, a rectangular
array, or a circle, or as many as 10 things in a scatterd
configuration; given a number from 1-20, count out that many
objects.
MAFS.K.CC.3.6: Identify whether the number of objects in
one group is greater than, less than, or equal to the number of
objects in another group, e.g., by using matching and counting
strategies.
MAFS.K.MD.2.3: Classify objects into given categories; count
the numbers of objects in each category and sort the categories
by count.
SC.K.P.8.1: Sort objects by observable properties, such as size,
shape, color, temperature (hot or cold), weight (heavy or light)
and texture.
After reviewing the calendar the students will be able to
identify day, month, and year of the calendar with 95%
accuracy.
Students will be able to represent, count and write 20 and
beyond with 90% accuracy.
The game Twenty which is played by the students
Direct Instruction:
Students will be instructed to go to the carpet for the following
instruction:
While sitting in front of the calendar students will be instructed
to use a complete sentence and identify: how many months are
in a year, how many days are in a week and what the current
year is.
The students will sing Days of the Week by the tune of the
Adams Family.
The students will be asked to count by 10s all the way to 100.
Students will be asked to quietly go back to their tables.
Guided Practice:
Students will be instructed how to play the game Twenty:

Have five (5) students raise both hands and lead the class to
count ten (10) hands, then have five more students raise both
hands and count forward from 10 to 20 hands. Ask the students
How many sets of 10 hands do we have? Explain that the
number 20 is two sets of 10.
The teacher will have the students follow along using their
connecting cubes to get two sets of 10 to make 20 and while
asking the students:
1. How many cubes fill the top ten frame? (10)
2. How many cubes are left? (10)
3. How many cubes fill the bottom ten frame? (10)
4. How many cubes fill 2 ten frames? (20)
The teacher will have the students count together how many
cubes in all (20).
The teacher will explain that objects such as the connecting
cubes are made up of matter. Matter takes up space and has
mass (weight).
Independent Practice:
The students independently count the items and write the
number 20 on the Count and Model worksheet.
The students will use the connecting cubes to model the number
20 while the teacher circulates to verify accuracy.
The students will draw two ten frame connecting cubes to model
the number 20 and then put the connecting cubes away.
The students will count the fruit and write the number 20.
Students will then share with their table how they counted the
oranges.
The students will get out their counting beads and display and
draw a circle around 20 beads on the Model and Count
worksheet.
The students will write the number of how many blue beads and
how many yellow beads.
The students will draw 20 objects and write the number 20.
Assessment of
learning Outcomes

Closure
Accommodations and

Formative:
The students answers to the questions regarding the ten frames
and the number 20. While using the connecting cubes the
teacher will circulate to identify the students correctly put them
in two ten frames to equal 20.
Summative:
The independent work on the Model and Count worksheet
displaying the students know that two 10 frames equals a total of
20.
Ask the students what the connecting cubes are made up of to
verify they heard and understand the Science concept.
Levels 1 and 2: The calendar, connecting cubes, counting

Modifications for
ELLs

Accommodations and
Modifications for
ESE
Extensions for Gifted
Students
Possible connections
to other content areas

beads, and worksheets are great visuals for the ELL. The game
Twenty is easy to understand and is visual. If necessary the
worksheets will be given in their first language and in English.
The ELL can be placed with a higher level ELL to help with the
manipulatives and worksheets.
Levels 3 and 4: The teacher will verify understanding by asking
if the ELL knows how to use the 10 frames and the
manipulatives. If necessary the ELL can work with a shoulder
partner.
Modifications and accommodations will be in accordance with
students IEP. Student with Im On Task will be monitored for
understanding and staying on task. Other ESE students will use
the connecting cubes to help them complete their work and the
game Twenty will be a way to keep the ESE focused.
Gifted students that complete the worksheet in advance will be
able to explore numbers beyond 20 with their connecting cubes
and write down what numbers they came up with.
Social Studies Have children create an American flag and
identify how many stars, how many red stripes, how many white
stripes, and how many stripes in all.
Language Arts Read the book Wheres the Party? which is
based on the order of numbers through 20.
