Instructional Plan
Grade: K
Content: Mathematics
Topic: Counting
Overview:

The following instructional plan covers the three initial lessons in a kindergarten
mathematics unit on counting. The lesson focuses on 1:1 counting and cardinality with numbers
0-10. Inquiry-based learning, partner work, and small group work are high leverage teaching
practices that are used throughout the three lessons. The lessons cover common core
mathematical standards: MCC.K.CC.5 (lesson 1) and MCC.K.CC.4 (lessons 2 and 3). Integrated
content is a part of lessons 2 and 3 with the integration of English Language Arts through
literature. Formative assessment was collected through anecdotal notes, checking in with small
groups, student check-in sheets, and 1:1 teacher to student assessment activities. Pre-assessment
was given prior to instruction and a post assessment was administered after the completion of the
three lessons. Assessments were reflected on and used to drive further instruction during the
counting unit.
English Language Learners are supported through the use of pictorial representations on
each of the tools/manipulatives used by students in each of the three lessons. Technology used in
the instructional plan includes smart board video (lesson 1) and the document camera (lessons 2
and 3). Each lesson contains remediation and extension in order to better support student
learning. Students were taught real-world connections on how to apply their learning of counting
to their own lives. Lessons for the instructional plan were influenced from the Georgia Math
Curriculum for kindergarten learners.

Standards:

Lesson 1
MCC.K.CC.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 scattered configuration; given a
number from 1-20, count out that many objects

Lessons 2 and 3
MCC.K.CC.4
Understand the relationship between numbers and quantities; connect counting to cardinality

Lesson 3
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.K.10
Actively engage in group reading activities with purpose and understanding.

Reflection of Aggregated Data:

Route Counting: 100% of students can count to 10 (green)


Associating numeral with quantity (MCC.K.CC.4): 30% of students can perform skill
accurately (green)
1:1 Counting: (MCC.K.CC.5): 35% of students can perform skill accurately (green)

Students are able to count from 0-10 orally which will drive instruction further because we will
not need to spend time teaching numbers 0-10. It was helpful to pre-assess this so that I have an
idea of what numbers my students are familiar with. This particular route counting assessment
was also part of our marking period one assessments. I see room for plenty of room for
improvement from students in regards to associations and 1:1 counting. I found it interesting to
learn that having the knowledge of counting from 1-10 does not translate into students being able
to identify the number, associate the number with a quantity, or produce a representation of the
number. I will need to be conscious of allowing for remediation and extensions for each lesson
since it varies student to student on where their understanding currently lies. Although there are
students who can perform the skills on the pre-assessment there is still the need for formal
instruction in order to fill in any gaps in learning for the students. I would like to see over 80% of
my students performing each of the two skills accurately by the end of the three lessons.

EFFECTIVE INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN – STANDARDS-BASED LESSON PLAN


Standards CCSS MCC.K.CC.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 scattered configuration; given a number from 1-20, count
out that many objects

Objective/Target and The students will (TSW) make sense of problems involving rote
I can statements – counting, recognizing counting patterns, and identifying quantities of
written in student items
friendly language
I CAN count to tell the number of objects

By the end of the lesson, students will be able to problem solve to


count the number of objects that appear in a sequence. Counting will be
0-10.

Formative Assessment: The teacher will (TTW) use formative


assessment to inform instruction by recording student feedback on
whole group inquiry. TTW use thumb up/thumb down to check in with
student understanding.

Lesson Management: Lesson Management:


Focus and •   I Do: Celebrate how much the class has learned during the
Organization previous unit on shapes. “One method we used to find what
shape something was was to count how many sides it had. We
are going to become even better counters in our new math unit.”
•   I Do: Introduce the video and then play video
•   You Do: Discuss the noticings through a turn and talk with your
carpet partner

§   What strategies are you using?
§   Is there another way you could group your dots?
•   We Do: Classroom sharing and reflection as the closure to the
lesson
o   Returning to the I CAN statement

Student Management:
Movement: Students will move on the carpet to turn and talk to their
carpet partner.

Active Student Participation:


Student talk will happen during the turn and talk portion of the
discussion. Students will also be listening and contributing to a whole
group share out/reflection

Classroom Management Focus:


TSW give the teacher “5” (ears, eyes, legs, mouth,and body listening)
while on the carpet. Students who do not adhere to the management
expectations or disrupt the learning of others will move their clip down
on the classroom PBIS chart.
Introduction: •   TTW capture student interest by introducing the new unit with a
Creating excitement connection to the previous unit
and focus for the o   emphasis: TSW be detectives today and work together
lesson target to solve a question
•   TTW create excitement by reading Every Buddy Counts by
Stuart J. Murphy
•   Before viewing the video, TTW set up the purpose for the
lesson by displaying/telling the students the objective
Input: Setting up the Task Analysis:
Lesson for Student •   TTW review expectations for the carpet
Success o   Give me 5 (ears, eyes, mouth, legs, and body listening)
•   TTW read I CAN statement aloud to the class and display it on
the target board
•   TTW use attention grabber by connecting how we had started
counting during our shape unit and they didn’t even know it
•   TTW read Every Buddy Counts by Stuart J. Murphy
•   TSW “sky count” with fingers along with the book while the
teacher reads to serve as exposure to 1:1 coutning
•   TTW introduce the video and ask the students to think of any
noticings, wonderings, or questions they have while they watch
the video
•   TTW play Act 1 (may play more than once)
•   TSW engage in group discussion about noticings, wonderings,
and questions

and questions
•   TTW record student thinking on the board
•   TTW show Act 3 (may play more than once)
•   TSW engage in group discussion about noticings, wonderings,
and questions
•   TTW record student thinking on the board

Higher Level Thinking:

Level 1: TSW name the shape differences that they see in the video

Level 2: TSW make observations of what is happening in the video and


what problem they are trying to solve

Level 3: TSW compare Act 1 video to Act 3 and see what differences
and similarities they see
Level 4: TSW synthesize what happens when a beep occurs in the
video (beep=adding one circle)

Accommodations:
•   Remediations: English Language Learners will benefit from
using the pictures and non-language based sounds in the video
•   Extensions: Students talk to partners about different strategies
used to solve the problem
•   Learning styles:
o   Visual:
§   Seeing the pictures in the counting book with
numerals
§   The visuals in the video investigations show
colors and shapes for visual learners
o   Verbal:
hearing the story read aloud as the intro to the
§  
lesson
§   Hearing the beep cues in the video investigation
Methods, Materials, and Integrated Technology:
•   Video link: https://gfletchy3act.wordpress.com/dotty/
Methods:
•   Read aloud
•   Think aloud for what questions you may think of while
watching the video investigation
•   Discussion (student generated responses and questioning from
higher thinking levels)

Technology:
•   Smartboard used for the video, “Dotty”

Modeling: “I DO” •   SHOW/TELL:


o   Set behavior expectations by reviewing the “give me 5”
procedure
o   Read I CAN statement
o   Read Aloud
o   Think Aloud
•   HOW/WHAT:
o   Guiding questions that will lead to higher level thinking
strategies such as synthesizing how a beep means that a
circle is added to the shape diagrams in the video
Checking for •   Record student thinking during whole group discussion
Understanding: •   Ask for thumbs up or thumbs down to show if a student also
saw the same noticing/wondering
•   Questions to check understanding:
o   “What do you wonder about?”
o   “What questions do you have after watching Act 1?”
o   “What is your strategy to solve the problem?”

Guided Practice: •   Follow along with the I CAN statement (using finger to scan-
“WE DO” read)
•   Discuss wonderings, noticings, and questions about Act 1, Act
2, Act 3
Collaborative (“YOU •   Sky counting with finger during read aloud
DO TOGETHER”) •   You do together: discuss wonderings, noticings, and questions
and/or Independent about Act 1, Act 2, Act 3
Practice (“YOU DO”)
Closure •   TTW restate the I CAN statement
•   Connect today’s lesson to how the students can continue to be
mathematicians and problem solvers throughout the entire
counting unit

Assessment The lesson objective will be met if the class is problem solving during
whole group discussion while debriefing the video. Each student must
respond with a thumb up or thumb down to agree or disagree with a
noticings made by a classmate

Reflection: for every •   How do you know that the objective/target was met? What is
lesson - questions to your evidence?
ask yourself after the o   The lesson objective has been met because each student
lesson shows engagement and problem solving with the video.
Students either showed this by voicing their
noticing/wondering/thinking or by showing they agree
or disagree with thumb up or thumb down.
•   How did students show they were engaged?
o   Students were engaged on the carpet in by the change in
content delivery. Content was delivered and examined
through text, video analysis, partner share, and whole
group discussion.
•   Were there any surprises?
o   I was surprised by how engaged the students were when
watching the video. The video was an important
educational tool, but I was unsure if students would find
the video engaging. However, they responded well to
the video and enjoyed playing the role of a
mathematician to see what they could figure out. This
lesson was a foundational lesson for the following two.
•   What would you do if you taught this lesson again?
o   If I were to teach this lesson again I would preface with
students that the shape changes are important in the
video, but we are being mathematicians on counting and
not shapes today. I hadn’t realized how fixated the
students were on the previous unit of shapes. I
appreciated their knowledge of shapes however it was
difficult to have them focus on counting. I would also be
more conscious about not helping them generate
responses. I find that hard in kindergarten because I
want them to get to a certain conclusion, but with this
unit it was meant to happen organically and with time.

mathematicians
•   TTW model the Got Dots game on the document camera
o   The students are given a pack of dot cards (pictures of
the face of dice)
o   Students work in groups of 3-4 (their designated math
teams not based on ability but rather just so they are
working on with new peers)
o   One student will flip over a card so that the dots are
facing up
o   The first student to say the correct number of dots will
get to keep the card (group members must count the
dots to verify - no assuming)
o   The student with the most cards at the end of the game
is the winner
•   TTW release the students by math groups
•   TSW play Got Dots
•   TTW check in with groups to take anecdotal notes and check
in with formative assessment questions:
o   How do you know that you counted correctly?
o   How many dots did you see?
o   How do you know?
o   What way did you see the dots grouped together?
•   TSW come to the carpet for closure and reflection
•   TTW review the new tool that was used to count (dot cards)
•   TSW brainstorm what tool they have seen that has the same
dot formations as the dot cards (dice)
•   TTW restate the objective/ I CAN statement

about another tool mathematicians use to count

Assessment The lesson objective will be met if each student has an active role in
the Got Dots game. If students are counting the number of dots on
the dot cards then the lesson objective has been met.

TTW check-in with a table of students during small group work and
take anecdotal notes while asking formative assessment questions to
the whole group

Reflection: for every •   How do you know that the objective/target was met? What is
lesson - questions to ask your evidence?
yourself after the lesson o   Lesson objective was met because each student was
discussing how many numbers were on a dot card: in
partners, in whole group, and in small group
o   Each student was counting the dots on the dot card
during small group work - students were verifying
work of groupmates
•   How did students show they were engaged?
o   Student talk was focused on the objective
o   Student engagement strategies varied throughout the
lesson: partner turn and talk and small group work
•   Were there any surprises?
o   Students had a difficult time working with teams - I
did not expect to have the frustrations and
responsibility issues that students had
o   This will inform further instruction by reviewing
teamwork expectations before introducing the new
game tomorrow
•   What would you do if you taught this lesson again?
o   If I were to teach this lesson again I would include a
mini lesson on teamwork with a video/song on
teamwork expectations
o   I would add an extra formative assessment piece of an
oral exit ticket. In order for students to return to seats
from the carpet they must name the number of dots on
a dot card that I display for them (individual response
but in whole group setting)
o   I would do a closure that included connecting today’s
lesson to the students’ everyday lives

Reflection: for every •   How do you know that the objective/target was met? What is
lesson - questions to ask your evidence?
yourself after the lesson o   Working in small groups matching a ten frame with a
numeral. Students were not matching a ten frame with
a ten frame or a numeral with a numeral. The matching
done by students directly reflected the objective
•   How did students show they were engaged?
o   Working in small groups
o   Checking in and talking with groups showed that
students were on task and matching ten frames with
numerals
o   Student teamwork had improved from yesterday and
students were engaged and minimal redirecting needed
to occur
•   Were there any surprises?
o   I was surprised by how many groups needed assistance
with setting up
o   I was surprised that so many students accurately
completed the activity and were able to complete the
extension portion of the lesson
o   4 of the 6 groups used the extension portion
•   What would you do if you taught this lesson again?
o   I would have done a whole group set up of the memory
game activity. This would have let me do more
observations during my check-ins rather than having to
assist and guide groups in setting up. This will guide
further instruction by doing whole group set up prior to
releasing students. The next lessons in the unit are
group based and a whole group set up will be
beneficial to both my check ins and student learning.
Post Instruction Assessment:

Method: Students were pulled to the back table individually. The teacher gave the students 3
ten frame cards and 3 numerals to match (8,4, and 0). The teacher then wrote a numeral on
the board without generating a name for the number (6) and the students produced a ten
frame picture to match the numeral.

Student Match Produce ten frame picture 1:1

Reflection of Aggregated Data:

Associating numeral with quantity (MCC.K.CC.4): 83% of students can perform skill
accurately (green)
1:1 Counting: (MCC.K.CC.5): 78% of students can perform skill accurately (green)

Growth:

Associating numeral with quantity (MCC.K.CC.4): 53% growth


1:1 Counting (MCC.K.CC.5): 43% growth

For the post assessment I was pleased with the methodology I chose to use for the assessment.
Pulling the students to work to work 1:1 with me was helpful and I provided them with the same
tools (ten frames and matching cards) that we used throughout the instructional plan. The
students showed overall growth from the pre assessment to this post assessment.There was
substantial growth in both standards that were addressed. I find it interesting that students that
could grasp associating a numeral with a quantity may have not mastered 1:1 counting with a ten
frame. Before teaching this instructional plan I had had to differentiate the two skills in my own
head. The data suggests that these are two different skills, for a student may master one before
the other. I highlighted students in yellow (improving but still not fully grasped) or red (not yet
grasped) in order to create intervention groups that I can work with during RTI centers. The data
does support that majority of my students did master the two standards that were addressed and
are ready to continue onto the next lesson in the counting unit. I will further address this in my
post instructional decisions.

Post Instructional Plan:

Data suggests that the majority of my students have mastered the objectives that were
covered from each standard. However, not all students showed this mastery, and there may be
gaps in learning that I have not seen from students who look like they have mastered the
objectives. For these reasons content lessons will continue as part of a larger unit. We will
continue onto the next lessons within the counting unit while revisiting and reviewing
associating numerals to quantity and 1:1 counting. The next lessons do still reinforce these skills
and it is because of this that I feel like students will continue to be scaffolded and supported. I
will incorporate more inquiry learning and partner work to encourage student exploration in
math. This helped with student engagement during the instructional plan. I also want to change
math groups to be based on ability in the following lessons. I will create my math groups based
on the post assessment data I collected form the instructional plan. I am not sure if I will stick
with ability based groups, but I can always reassess my decision and make a change. The
students are ready as a whole for the next lesson in the unit and because of my reflections and
data collected I feel confident in this instructional decision.

Student Satisfaction Survey:

Question 1:
23 Y 0 Not Sure 0N

Question 2:
23 Y 0 Not Sure 0N

Question 3:
23 Y 0 Not Sure 0N

Question 4:
23 Y 0 Not Sure 0N

(As a reflection piece: with kindergarten they want to please you as the teacher, so I do not know
how accurately this depicts their thinking)
