FOCUS
(what you want the children
to come to understand as a
result of this lesson short,
succinct statement)
Session 1
Students
recognise the
connection
between
addition and
subtraction
and use this
knowledge to
solve worded
problems.
Students are
re-introduced
to worded
problems in
this lesson.
Estimating
Explaining
Generalising
Hypothesising
Inferring
Interpreting
Justifying
TUNING IN
(WHOLE CLASS FOCUS)
(a short, sharp task relating to the
focus of the lesson; sets the scene/
context for what students do in the
independent aspect. e.g., It may be a
problem posed, spider diagram, an
open-ended question, game, or
reading a story)
.
Re-introduce worded
problems
What are they?
What do you know about
worded problems?
When we look at a worded
problem, what are the
important parts of it that we
need to look for before we
solve it? (underline
important info)
What information do we
need to know before we
attempt to solve?
Looking at addition and
subtraction worded
problems
Class solves open ended
word problem together
Must use all possible
methods to answer each
problem
Emphasise strategies used
Language
Important key points
Listening
Locating information
Making choices
Note taking
Observing
Ordering events
Organising
INVESTIGATIONS
SESSION
(INDEPENDENT LEARNING)
(extended opportunity for students to
work in pairs, small groups or
individually. Time for teacher to probe
childrens thinking or work with a small
group for part of the time and to also
conduct roving conferences)

STRATEGIES
- Enabling prompt
(to allow those experiencing
difficulty to engage in active
experiences related to the initial
goal task)
- Extending prompt
(questions that extend students
thinking on the initial task)
