Say a number (from 1 - 100) and have the learner
make it using the cue cards from lesson 1.
Do verbal exercises where the learner must provide
the next number (i.e . 14, 15, 16, ____ )
Dictation: Say a number and have the learner
write it (as a number.)
Take a look at her homework from last day (practice
writing the numbers from 1 - 100 on
lined paper); help her where necessary.

Overview
(relevance of lesson to learner)
|
Show a picture of a woman purchasing something at the store. She
is looking in her wallet and
trying to find the money. Ask, "What do you do?" (Have
bilingual dictionary on hand for Naw-
Po.)
Listen to responses. Let the learner know the
reasons why the strategies she uses are good.
Add your additional ideas using the picture
to build the context. (For example, point to
the
register display and say, "Look at numbers.")
Link this discussion to the need to know the
numbers. (For example, not all cash registers
have totals that are visible. Point to the register
display and say, "I cannot see.") |
Presentation |
Take coins and pictures of bills available; lay them out on the
table. Point to the penny, say "one
cent" and have the learner repeat. Take the card that says "$0.01
or 1¢" and have the learner put
it close to the penny. Say the word, "penny" and have
the learner repeat. Take the card that says "penny" and
place it on the other side of the penny. Repeat for each coin. |
