2nd Grade Lesson Plan

Prepared by: [You Name]

School Name: [Your Company Name]

I. Objective

Students will understand and be able to apply basic addition and subtraction skills within 100. They will also start to learn the concepts of even and odd numbers.

II. Materials

• Whiteboard and markers

• Math workbooks

• Number cards (1-100)

• Counters or small objects (e.g., beans, buttons)

• Chart paper

• Pencils and erasers

• Timer

• Educational apps or online games for technology integration

III. Warm-Up Activity (10 Minutes)

1. Begin with a quick review of counting by 2s, 5s, and 10s. Write the sequences on the board and have students recite them together.

2. Play a quick number game. Call out random numbers between 1 and 100 and have students identify whether these numbers are even or odd.

3. Use number cards to prompt students to come to the board and place the card in the correct column labeled "Even" or "Odd."

IV. Introduction (5 Minutes)

1. Explain the day's objectives clearly to the class. Share that they will be working on addition and subtraction up to 100 and discussing even and odd numbers more in-depth.

2. Show visual aids such as charts illustrating addition and subtraction facts within 20 for students to reference during the lesson.

V. Direct Instruction (15 Minutes)

1. Demonstrate solving simple addition problems on the whiteboard.

Example: 23 + 15. Use counters to visually show the addition process.

2. Next, demonstrate subtraction by solving a problem on the whiteboard.

Example: 45 - 17. Again, use counters to visually show the subtraction process.

3. Show how to identify even and odd numbers using examples on the whiteboard. Explain that even numbers are divisible by 2 with no remainder, while odd numbers have a remainder of 1 when divided by 2.

VI. Guided Practice (10 Minutes)

1. Hand out math workbooks and turn to a page with a mix of addition and subtraction problems.

2. Work through the first few problems together as a class to ensure understanding.

3. Walk around the classroom to offer individual support as students begin working on their own.

VII. Independent Practice (10 Minutes)

1. Allow students to complete the rest of the workbook page independently.

2. Provide additional worksheets with exercises on even and odd numbers for early finishers.

VIII. Assessment (5 Minutes)

1. Collect the workbooks and check the students' answers for accuracy and understanding.

2. Observe student participation and engagement during activities and direct instruction.

IX. Closure (5 Minutes)

1. Gather the class together and review key points of the lesson.

2. Ask a few students to share one thing they learned about addition, subtraction, or even and odd numbers.

3. Provide positive reinforcement and a brief preview of the next lesson.

X. Homework

Students will receive a worksheet with additional addition and subtraction problems to practice at home, as well as a few questions on identifying even and odd numbers.

XI. Reflection

After the lesson, take time to reflect on what worked well and what could be improved. Note any students who may need additional support and plan for differentiation in future lessons.
