I. Subject: Math Topic: Skip Counting Grade Level: 2nd Date: 10/4/19
During this lesson, the students will be able to skip count by 10s, 5s, and 2s starting at
any given number. By participating in a class skip count game and constructing a skip count tree.
IV. Learning Objective(s)/Target(s): By the end of the class/unit, the students will:
By the end of the 35 minute lesson, the students will be able to skip count by 10s, 5s, or
2s, depending on ability level. By constructing a skip count tree with 85% of the students getting
¾ correct.

V. Assessment/s (Note: Both the learning objective and summative assessment/s are aligned to
each other. All formative assessments are aligned to the summative assessment.)
The teacher will have the students form a circle on the carpet and pick a starting student to start
off the skip count to 120 by 10s, 5s, and 2s, until there is one student standing.
Students Say the next number in the skip count.
A. Function:
The students will use the academic language when classifying their skip counting trees.
● Checklist
B. Safety Concerns:
Scissors are not to be used any place other than on paper that is directed to be cut.

1. Were today’s learning objectives/targets met for individuals, small groups, and the whole
class?
2. What would you do differently if you could teach the class again to the same students?
(This could include changes in the organization of the lesson plan, strategies used, use of
technology, use of differentiation, formative assessments and closure.)
3. Based on your questions, checks for understanding, and/or assessment data/analysis, what
will happen next for the entire class and for specific groups/individuals in this class?
