Module 5 Lesson

Basic Productivity Tools (BPT)
Lesson Idea Name: Addition and subtraction equations

Content Area: Mathematics
Grade Level(s): First Grade
Content Standard Addressed: MGSE1.OA.7 Understand the meaning of the equal sign, and
determine if equations involving addition and subtraction are true or false
Technology Standard Addressed: Empowered Learner

Students leverage technology to take an active role in choosing, achieving, and demonstrating
competency in their learning goals, informed by the learning sciences.
Selected Technology Tool: PowerPoint

Bloom’s Digital Taxonomy Level(s):

☐ Remembering ☐ Understanding ☐ Applying ☒ Analyzing ☐ Evaluating ☐

Levels of Technology Integration:

☐ Infusion Level: Students may work at a higher Bloom’s Level, but they do not have any “Voice
or Choice” during the activity and most of the decisions are made by the teacher.
☒ Integration Level: We would like to see ALL lessons/activities reach this level. The project is
student-driven. Students have “Voice and Choice” in the activities, selecting the topic of study and
determining the technology tool to demonstrate mastery of the standard. The teacher becomes
more of a facilitator.
☐ Expansion Level: The projects created are shared outside of the classroom, publishing student
work and promoting authorship. This could be reached by showcasing the project on the school’s
morning newscast, posting the project to the classroom blog, or publishing via an outside source.
Universal Design for Learning (UDL): I chose to use PowerPoint for my activity, because students
can interact with it, see it, and talk about it. This enhances my students learning by allowing them to
work together, and see things visually moving creating numbers.
Lesson idea implementation: The teacher will go through a few slides going step by step with
students. As students get more comfortable they will start to read, and work with the problems
together. At that time, the teacher will assist the students as needed. Students will be seated with their
own base ten blocks to help them solve the problem. Going through the slide it should take about 10-
15 minutes. After the slides, the students will be given about 5 minutes to think of their own equation,
and talk with a peer. Student will write it on a white board. The teacher will check the equation to
make sure numbers were not too large students will write their equation on construction paper.
Students will draw pictures to go along with their equation. After they draw, and add color students
will write a sentence stating if the equation is equal or not. Students will be given about 15-25 minutes
to complete their work therefore they have enough time to make it look nice since it will go in the
hallway outside the classroom. Students will be accessed throughout the PowerPoint, creating their
equation, and their final product will be accessed by the teacher. This allows all different types of
learning to collaborate, and create with the teacher walking around and assisting where they are

needed. I will ask the students to not think number block thing any object, because anything can be
used as a counter and check your peers work to see if you agree with them why or why not. I will
conclude my lesson with a short lecture about equal equations, and letting students tell me what they
created and show the class. I will provide feedback while I walk around, and also when I see the final
product to see if anything needs to be fixed before we share and hang it on the wall. All together this
lesson would take approximately 50 minutes.
Reflective Practice: This could impact my students learning, because they are expanding their
knowledge and applying it to create. Instead of letting students create something on paper they could
of created it on Microsoft, and shared it online with one another.
