Time Procedure

13’

Pre StorytellingThe teacher tells the pupils she is going tell them about a very-very-very hungry caterpillar. (The very hungry caterpillar by Eric Carle, but adapted to the lessons objectives) S/he asks pupils to say what they think the word hungry and very-very-very means. The words hungry and caterpillar are explained at this point through the use of visuals and miming.

While StorytellingThe teacher tells the story, using the numbers by ten’s up to a hundred (10, 20,…, 100) while pausing and encouraging the pupils to guess whether the caterpillar is still hungry and what and how much the caterpillar eats next. S/he can help pupils, if necessary, by giving them clues. Once the numbers are revealed, the teacher says that the caterpillar now has a stoma ache and we will sing a song to make him fill better.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7stosHbZZZg

After storytellingThe teacher shows flashcards of the numbers and fruit/food mentioned in the story and asks the pupils to retell the story. The teacher calls out pupils to place flashcards with the numbers in the right order according to which they are mentioned in the story. Each time pupils places a flashcard on the board, the teacher asks the rest

of the class to repeat the word and say if they agree or not with the order it is placed in. Finally, once the numbers of the fruit/food are placed in the correct order, the teacher places word labels with the numbers under each one. Each pair has a small bag with what the caterpillar ate and at the same time the rest of the children do it in pairs on their desks after taking out of the bag the flashcards.

ActivitiesActivity 1: A child wears the caterpillar’s headband tells us how he fills and all the children count according to the child’s feeling using different voice. e.g. Sad, angry, happy, surprised, boredhttp://lisaslibraryland.blogspot.com.cy/2013/03/very-hungry-caterpillar-headband.html

Activity 2: The teacher wears the caterpillar’s headband and says true or false phrases according to what the caterpillar ate. If the phrase is correct they touch with both hands on their head. If its false they touch their nose and write the correct answer on their personal board.(number word e.g. ten )

Activity 3: Dice: The teacher puts in the pockets of the dice, the flashcards with the numerals or the number word. A child throws the dice and reads aloud the number word or numeral and the children according to what it is they write the opposite on their personal whiteboard.

Activity 4: Make a caterpillar number slider. They follow the instructions on the paper decorate their caterpillar and write on the 2 strips number words and the numeral so they can match when they finish.http://www.crayola.com/for-educators/lesson-plans/lesson-plan/slider-word-game.aspx
