Procedures:
Step One:
Introduction
Have a small group of students go to a computer. Explain to
students that you are going to use the computer to read an
Mini-Research eBook
about identifying and matching
numbers to objects in a set from 1 to 15.
List 2 or more
questions that introduce students
to your Mini-Research eBook that will establish a
connection to students' prior knowledge by asking them:
1. "Can you count to 15?
2. "Can you write the numbers 1 to 15?"
Today we are going
to read an eBook
on the Internet.
I have made a special Mini-Research eBook on the Internet for your
class. (During discussion have students turn around away from the
computer to interact.)
Estimated Time for Step One:
5 minutes
Step Two
Teaching the Primary Learning Outcomes:
(Students will sit at the computer where they can control the mouse
and computer.) (Explain to students the process of the
lesson.) We are going to read my Mini-Research eBook and visit
several websites about
identifying and matching or counting how may objects are in a set.
Check for understanding
Students with teacher assistance will read the Mini-Research eBook,
explore, and
discuss
the information in the four linking websites that go with the
Mini-Research eBook. Ask
students guiding
questions about the important concepts in the Mini-Research eBook and
the linking
websites. List four or more questions from each of your
linking websites that will guide your students to gain information for
your PLO.
1. Can you tell me how
many plates are in the last row?
2. Can you tell me
what numbers do you see next to the sets of forks?
3. How many bags of cheetos are
in the set at the top?
4. When you connect to the link
to play the game, how many pairs of scissors do
you see in the set?
Practice and feedback related to the
PLO
Read the Mini-Research eBook project to students. Explain to
students that
they
are going to take orders for their class. They
will be given a bag. They are to go around to each station and pick up
how many of each item that was ordered. They will go back to their desk
and count each set of food items to make sure they have the correct
amount of each item. Finally, they are going to draw a picture of each
food items sets using their paper and crayons or markers, and write the
name of each food item and the numeral that identifies the number of
food items on their picture.
Tell
the
students that the information that they will need to complete
their Mini-Research eBook project is listed and connected in
the Mini-Research eBook
activity. Review the
information in the linked website in
the Mini-Research eBook activity with the students to emphasize
interesting and important information students will need to complete
mission
project.

hotdogs, 10 bags of chips, 3 ice cream cones, and 5 doughnuts. Please
help me pick up the correct number of each item. Visit the link to get
help with counting
and matching numbers in a set.
1. Draw a picture of the 8 juice
boxes, 6
hamburgers, 4 hotdogs, 10 bags of chips, 3
ice cream cones, and 5
doughnuts.
2. Label the name and number of the
items
below each of your pictures.
For help with
counting
and connecting numbers to a set click on me.
3. Next, color your pictures.

website page.
How
students are to present real-world
activity.
Method 1:

The
student was able to identify and match the correct numbers to the
corresponding set. The student was also able to write the corresponding
numeral to go with the set of food items that she had drawn. She went
around to each station and picked up the correct number of each food
item she needed to fulfill the order. She drew her pictures and wrote
the correct numeral that matched how many was in the set. With teacher
assistance, she labeled the food items by name.

Comment
on your
teaching of how your
Mini-Research eBook
Lesson created learning experiences and activities that
implemented the use a variety of resources and technologies. (*
To receive full credit description must include a minimum of two
sentences and a detailed example.)
Teaching my Mini-Research eBook Lesson was a learning experience for
the students. Not only did they have an opportunity to use their
imagination to explore going to a professional football game, they gain
knowledge about how to use the computer. They had a little knowledge of
how to use the mouse to go to different pages and website links. The
two little girls stated that they had been to a local football game
before and their moms bought them something to eat at the game and it
was fun. They were excited to pretend that they were going to a
professional game in Atlanta. The links found on each of my eBook pages
also created learning experiences that implemented a variety of
educational activities and games. Both of the students really enjoyed
using the computer to play eductaional games, and they did a great job
taking turns.
2. State evidence to show that
your students gained knowledge during your Mini-Research eBook
Lesson. (*
To receive full credit description must include a minimum of two
sentences and a detailed example.)
When looking at each of my eBook pages, I asked serveral questions
about the pictures. I asked them to identify the objects in the
picture. I asked the students to count the numbers of items in the set
as well as identify the numbers next to the sets.During the educational
games at the links, both students had to use their counting and
matching skills to answer the questions correctly. Throughout the
lesson, both girls gained more knowledge with using these skills more
efficiently. The girls also learned how to use the mouse of the
computer better.
3. Give at least one suggestion that
would lead to improving your teaching practices and student
achievement. (*
To receive full credit description must include a minimum of two
sentences and a detailed example.)
More time would have been beneficial for teaching this lesson. I would
have loved to talk about things they learned prior to my that are
related to my lesson.
It would have also been helpful if I had put the spelling of the food
items on the board with a picture next to it so that the girls would
have been able to copy the words from the board rather than ask me
repeatedly how to spell this and that. When the girls had drawn their
pictures, they knew that they were suppose to write the name of the
food item on their paper, but they did not know how to spell the words
so this slowed them down alot.
