Enable Editing BACKGROUND: You are an elementary school teacher, and you will be teaching math lessons to your class. You have 20 students. You may choose the grade K-8 that you will be teaching. You have fairly adequate supplies and funds available at your school. You are required by your school system and principal to submit lesson plans. In your lesson plans you are required to relate the topics you will be teaching to the current National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) standards for K-8 and/or the state of Mississippi (or your current state...please list if other than Mississippi) benchmarks and/or Common Core Standards. As you plan your lesson for a selected topic, you remember that you covered this particular topic in your MA 1413 course at MSU. You also remember that you learned several things about this topic in that course that you believe are necessary to be covered with your students. PRESENTATION OF PROJECT: You are required to turn in the lesson plans for your selected topic. The length should be long enough to adequately cover the selected topic. One week of lesson plans is usually a good time frame. I am not picky on the format of the lesson plans. If you have not worked with lesson plans available, there are many styles available with a quick Google search. You may also consult other K-12 educators or your Education Department instructors. The file should be submitted via the assignment drop box in Canvas. The file must be either a Word (.doc or . docx), pdf or rif file. In your lesson plans be sure to include information about the class you are teaching. This includes the grade level, time of year and background knowledge of students. It is also a good idea to find a book that will introduce the topic to the students. Children love stories! Fun activities for your class and creativity are encouraged. Plagiarism is not! I realize that there are completed lesson plans available on the internet. Don't use them for anything but brainstorming your own ideas. I will be checking! Helpful info: National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) website: http://www.nctm.org/ NCTM Principles and Standards are sprinkled throughout your textbook. Focus
