Mathematics for Elementary Teachers

Design a lesson plan and PowerPoint presentation on one subject from Topics 1-6, provided in the list of topics from your instructor.

The project consists of a lesson plan and a powerpoint presentation of the lesson. The presentation can be directed to your students or to your peers about your lesson plan. Please include presentation notes and references as appropriate.

Include the following:

1. Overview: Write an introduction to the class activity. Include the purpose of the activity and desired outcome.
2. Objectives: The objectives should be specific and measurable.
3. Time: How long will the activity take when implemented in the classroom?
4. Materials: Describe any materials that are needed to conduct the lesson.
5. Activity: Provide a detailed description of the activity. Write all steps from the instruction of the assessment.
6. Presentation: Complete a PowerPoint presentation that could be used in class to teach the lesson plan.
7. Notes: The PowerPoint should include presentation notes.

Please choose one topic for lesson plan project
