Introduce Subitizing
__** Judges Prior Learning: **__ The students took a preassessment at the beginning of the unit. The preassessment showed that the students in the class needed to learn and practice how to subitize.
 * Preassessment **:

Subitizing is important because it is the ability recognize instantly how many objects you see without counting. This saves time and eliminates error.
 * Purpose **:

- SW subitize quantities from 1 to 6 - SW use dice to reinforce how to subitize
 * Objectives **:

1. The students will complete "Dots on Dice." They will roll a die and then they will draw the same number of dots in a box. The students will repeat until all 15 boxes are filled. Once the students have filled all 15 boxes, they will color each box according to what number is in the box. (1 = red, 2 = orange, 3 = yellow, 4 = green, 5 = blue, 6 = purple)
 * Assessment **:

2. The students will complete "Bubblegum" Worksheet. The students will be graded on if they correctly identified and colored each gumball according to the number of dots on each gumball.

__** Plan for Teaching: **__ - Number Cards - Dice - ﻿"Dots on Dice" Worksheet - "Bubblegum" Worksheet
 * Materials **:

- Copy 22 "Dots on Dice" Worksheets - Copy 22 "Bubblegum" Worksheets - Get 22 Dice - Prepare and cut out the number cards
 * Preparation **:

N/A
 * Technology **:


 * Procedures **:

Introduction : - **1.** Bring the students to the carpet - **2.** What is subitizing? - - **a**. Recognize instantly how many objects you see without counting - **3.** We do this with dice. - **4.** We do this with dominoes. - **5.** Roll a big dice on the floor - - **a**. What number was rolled? - - **b**. Roll the dice a couple of times to give the students an idea. - - **c**. Emphasize that you look at the dots and know, you don't have to count.

Instruction **:** - 1. Show students the subitize cards (1 to 6). - - a. Go through the cards 1 at a time in chronological order - - - i. Let the students get comfortable with the number of dots on each card. - - b. Go through the cards in a random order - - - i. Have the students call out the numbers as fast as they possibly can. - 2. Have the students return to their seats. - - a. Give every student a set of numbers 1 to 6. - - - i. Every number will be on a different color - - b. When I show a card, the students will grab the corresponding number and raise it in the air as fast as they can. - - c. We will do this activity for 5 minutes. - 3. Pass out “Dots on Dice” worksheet to students. - - a. The students will roll a die and then they will draw the same number of dots in a box. - - b. The students will repeat until all 15 boxes are filled. - - c. Once the students have filled all 15 boxes, they will color each box according to what number is in the box. - - - i. 1 = red - - - ii. 2 = orange - - - iii. 3 = yellow - - - iv. 4 = green - - - v. 5 = blue - - - vi. 6 = purple

Closure : - 1. We will review as a class what we learned - - a. What is subitizing? - - b. I will flash different subitizing cards and ask the students to call out how many dots are on the card as quickly as possible.

- Keep a close eye on Alexa, Walter, Afeez, Jonathan, Jayla, and Tanveer. - Clarify and rephrase directions for Alexa, Walter, Afeez, Jonathan, Tanveer.
 * Differentiation and adaptations for students with special needs: **

Students who finish early can practice subitizing by rolling the dice and recording what number they rolled on the back of their worksheet. Students may also color in the pictures on their papers or illustrate their own on the back of their papers.
 * Extensions for early finishers: **

This lesson is relevant to students of all cultures. However, it is important to make sure every student understands what a dice is and how it is used.
 * Multicultural Extensions: **

__** Teach the Lesson: **__

__**Assess**__: 1. The students will complete "Dots on Dice." They will roll a die and then they will draw the same number of dots in a box. The students will repeat until all 15 boxes are filled. Once the students have filled all 15 boxes, they will color each box according to what number is in the box. (1 = red, 2 = orange, 3 = yellow, 4 = green, 5 = blue, 6 = purple)

2. The students will complete "Bubblegum" Worksheet. The students will be graded on if they correctly identified and colored each gumball according to the number of dots on each gumball.

__** Analysis **:__ “Dots on Dice” - Two students earned [|check plus] because they failed follow the directions for coloring. - One student earned a [|star minus] because they messed up two colors. - One student earned a [|star minus] because they forgot to fill in one number. - One student was absent. - 13 students earned [|stars].

“Bubblegum” - Every student earned a [|star]!

__** Reflection :**__ - The students loved saying “subitize.” They repeated it over and over again and were extremely excited. - The students loved trying to guess the numbers of dots on the cards as fast as they could. They did a great job at it, too. Rarely you would hear a number one off, but 9 times out of 10, the students would answer correctly. - I loved the “Dots on Dice” worksheet. The students loved being able to roll the dice, and I loved that the students were actively engaged, having fun, and learning at the same time. I didn’t even have to remind them to keep the dice under control.
