Daily Lesson Plan -- Lesson 15

Number 15

Subject: Maths | Class: Nursery | Series: Skillford


Overview

This lesson introduces the number 15. Learners look at fifteen bright, swirly lollipops tied with little bows, standing in three rows of five in a land of sweets, and count them together. They learn that fifteen is ten and five more. On the second day they trace 15 (a straight line, then a 5 with a hat, a neck and a round belly) and colour the lollipops on page 47. On the third day they show fifteen in a tens and ones box (page 37), build a lollipop-stick fence and practise one more and one less. Learners say, count and trace; they are not expected to read words.

Learning Outcomes (from textbook)

  • Recognise the number 15 and say its name.
  • Count fifteen objects.
  • Trace and write the number 15.

Key Vocabulary

  • fifteen
  • lollipop
  • melt
  • sand timer
  • fence
  • ten and five more

Page Label

  • "Fifteen Lollipops"

Day 1: Look and Say (30 minutes)

Materials

  • Textbook page 46
  • A sand timer (one or two minutes)
  • Fifteen lollipop sticks or ice-lolly sticks
  • A lump of clay or play dough

Circle Time Warm-Up (4 minutes)

  • Sit in a circle and count from 1 to 14 together
  • Ask: "What comes after fourteen?" Say "fifteen" together
  • Draw 15 in the air: a straight line down, then a hat, a neck and a round belly for 5
  • Say "fifteen" three times, licking an imaginary lollipop each time

Little Explorers (4 minutes)

  • Science card: say "Lollipops melt in the sun"
  • Ask: "What happens to a lollipop on a hot day?" (it goes soft and sticky)
  • Count to fifteen together quickly, "before the lollipops go sticky!"

Look and Say (8 minutes)

  • Open page 46 and point to the big white 15. Say "fifteen" and learners repeat
  • Point to the words "Fifteen Lollipops" and read them aloud
  • Count the lollipops together, one row at a time: five, five, five
  • Count them all together, touching each one: "1, 2, 3 ... 15"
  • Ask: "What is tied under each lollipop?" (a bow)
  • Ask learners to find the lollipop with all the colours of the rainbow

Little Innovators (4 minutes)

  • Technology card: show the sand timer and turn it over
  • The class counts slowly to fifteen together
  • Ask: "Did we finish before the sand ran out?" Try again, a little faster

Little Builders (4 minutes)

  • Engineering card: press the clay into a long, flat strip on the table
  • Learners take turns standing a lollipop stick in the clay, counting aloud
  • Stop at fifteen and admire the fence: "Fifteen sticks make a fence!"

Little Thinkers (5 minutes)

  • Maths card: "Ten lollipops and five more make fifteen lollipops"
  • Point to the top two rows on page 46 and count: ten
  • Point to the bottom row: "and five more"
  • Say together: "Ten and five more is fifteen"
  • Show two hands (ten fingers), then one more hand (five): fifteen

Wrap-Up (1 minute)

  • Hold up ten fingers, then a friend holds up one whole hand. Say "fifteen"
  • Wave goodbye to the lollipops: "Bye-bye, lollipops!"

Differentiation

  • Support: Count one row of five at a time with the learner, then put the rows together
  • Extension: Ask confident learners to count the lollipops in fives: "five, ten, fifteen"

Day 2: Trace the Number (30 minutes)

Materials

  • Textbook pages 46-47
  • Crayons
  • Pencils
  • A tray of sand or salt

Warm-Up (5 minutes)

  • Show page 46 again and count the fifteen lollipops together
  • Say "Fifteen Lollipops" together
  • Count on from 11: "11, 12, 13, 14, 15"

Little Artists: Sand Tracing (5 minutes)

  • Ask learners to trace 15 in the sand tray with one finger
  • Show the strokes: for 1, go straight down. For 5, draw the hat across the top, the neck going down, then the fat round belly
  • Wipe the sand smooth and let them try again

Look at Page 47 (5 minutes)

  • Open page 47 and point to the big white 15 and the words "Fifteen Lollipops"
  • Count the small lollipops and the one big lollipop together: fifteen
  • Read the Teacher's Note: draw a straight line from the top to the bottom for
    1. Then make a hat, then a neck, then a fat, round belly to make the perfect 5

Trace the Number (10 minutes)

  • Hand out pencils and check the grip (pinch the pencil, rest it on the middle finger)
  • Rows 1 and 2: trace the dotted 15, following the green arrows
  • Rows 3 and 4: learners make a 15 from the dots, with your hand over their hand if needed
  • Say the 5 rhyme as they draw: "hat, neck, belly"
  • Praise every try: "What a perfect 5!"

Little Artists (4 minutes)

  • Arts card: colour the fifteen lollipops at the top of page 47
  • Learners use bright swirly colours and count each lollipop

Wrap-Up (1 minute)

  • Draw 15 in the air one last time and say "fifteen"

Differentiation

  • Support: Say "hat, neck, belly" while guiding the learner's hand through the 5
  • Extension: Let confident learners write 15 on the board without dots

Day 3: Activities (30 minutes)

Materials

  • Textbook page 37
  • Fifteen lollipop sticks per group and a lump of clay
  • A tens and ones box drawn on card (two boxes marked T and O)
  • A bundle of ten straws held with a rubber band, and five loose straws

Warm-Up (5 minutes)

  • Count to 15 together while jumping on the spot
  • Show the bundle of ten straws and the five loose straws and count them all

Activity 1: Tens and Ones (8 minutes)

  • Open page 37 and look at the boxes marked T and O
  • Put the straw bundle under T and the five loose straws under O
  • Ask: "How many tens? How many ones?" (one ten, five ones)
  • Write 1 under T and 5 under O and read it: "fifteen"

Activity 2: Lollipop-Stick Fence (8 minutes)

  • Each group builds a fence by standing fifteen sticks in clay
  • Groups count their sticks aloud as they stand each one up
  • Groups swap tables and count the other fence to check

Activity 3: One More, One Less (6 minutes)

  • Put fifteen sticks in a row and count them
  • Take one away: "How many now?" (fourteen)
  • Put it back: "How many now?" (fifteen)
  • Add one more: count again (sixteen). Take it away again

Wrap-Up (3 minutes)

  • Turn the sand timer over and count to fifteen together one last time
  • Praise the class: "You counted all the way to fifteen!"

Differentiation

  • Support: Count out ten sticks first, then add five more one at a time
  • Extension: Ask confident learners to count the fence in fives and show 15 in the tens and ones box on their own

Teaching Tips (from textbook)

  • Draw a vertical line from the top to the bottom for 1
  • Make a hat, then a neck, then a fat, round belly to make the perfect 5
  • Ten lollipops and five more make fifteen lollipops
  • Colour the fifteen lollipops at the top of the next page
