Writing Homework Help

When early number and operation concepts are taught well, children move from understanding “10” as ten ones to understanding “10” as one unit of ten. This knowledge can be applied in many mathematical operations, including addition and subtraction.

Select at least three number and operations in base ten standards for the grade level of your field experience classroom. Design three learning  centers for a small group of students that will be run by volunteers. In developing your learning centers, consider students’ personal, family, community experiences, and cultural norms, and how those can be integrated into the math centers. Create one learning center that promotes active inquiry, one that includes problem solving, and one that incorporates technology .

For each learning center, write a 150-250 word handout for the volunteer who will be facilitating each center’s activity.

Include the following in each handout:

• Purpose and learning objective aligned to the state standard
• List of materials/manipulatives to be used and the purpose of each (including technology resources)
• List of age-appropriate content-related vocabulary  to be taught and used throughout the activity
• Directions for how to run the activity
• How the activity can be differentiated  for students above and below grade level

In a 250-500 word rationale, discuss how your centers are designed to:

• Integrate the personal, family, community experiences, and cultural norms of students .
• Provide opportunities for collaboration and supportive interaction  in the early childhood classroom.
