Peer Review Focus Question • What other activities could I do to help Kindergarteners recognize coins and know their value?
District and School Ken-Ton Central School District Edison Elementary School Kindergarten Vinny Miranda
Grade Level and Ability of Students • Kindergarten • General Education Classroom • 18 students: 9 boys and 9 girls • 3 students have IEP’s for speech related delays • Ability levels range from below grade level to above grade level.
Time Frame • Culminating activity of a 1-week unit on money. • Planning took ~5 hrs • Implementation 1 class period ~60 minutes. • 5 mins: anticipatory set • 10-15 mins: guided practice • 25-30 mins: independent practice • 10-15 mins: closure activity • Assessment took ~5 mins
Objectives • Students will be able to… • Sort coins based on their value and name • Calculate the value of money in each piggy bank by counting the coins by their corresponding value. • Write numbers 1 through 50.
Essential Question(s) • If I have more of one type of coin, does it always mean that the value is worth more than fewer of another type of coin? • For example: Which is worth more? 10 pennies or 5 nickels
Guiding Questions • What special characteristics does each coin have? • How much (value) is each coin worth? • Did I count by the right number when finding the total worth?
Enduring Understanding Recognizing coins and knowing their value is important skill used in everyday life • Coins can be counted in two ways: • Counting the total number of coins you have. • Counting the value/ worth of the coins you have.
Students Tasks Review coins in whole group setting. Model activity with students. Students sort bag of coins onto the coin sort work mat. Students record the amount of coins and then find the value. Using a calculator find total value of coins together. Share work with class. See page 14 of LE for detailed list of procedures
