Mahra and Maitha math day. by Maitha Ali Salem Saif Alneyadi(H00348506)

After students finish from helping the store we start to give the students stickers we ask the students “okay boys and girls did you know how we sort?” as a whole group we moved to the 4 centers: in the first center it was sorting by color and on this center we connected Jean Piaget theory which is the child can learn from his own environment before we start the activity we ask the students what color can you see in the plates the students start to answer (green, orange, yellow, blue and red) we asked the student where can we find read color in the classroom? Students show us goldilocks house, Ms Sozan shirt, and stuff from the oats box. We practice in front of them after that students start to do it by themselves for 6-7 minutes.On this activity students will learn about different colors and shapes On the second center the students are working in pairs were they are collaborating and communicating with each other, in this center the students are able to sort by sizes we give them a different pictures with a different sizes which depend to the story characters (Large for the daddy bear - medium for the mommy bear and small for the baby bear) and here we connected Bruner theory which is the child can learn by Iconic (by pictures) but we find some difficulties in this group that the student is not able to solve it quickly like we have to hold the 3 different sizes to show them the difference between the 3 pictures but at the end they did it because they are helping each other’s. students learn in this centers about size, shapes and the three keys of words of the size (large, medium and small) we face a challenges on this activity while we show them one picture they didn’t know the different between medium and small, but if we show them the three picture they will notice the sizes. we will work on next time by label the picture with the size. From that way students can know the different between the sizes.On the third center, they have one basket with a multiple colors of teddy bear and 4 colors of teddy bears students must sort it by color me and my partner Mahra we explain how to do it on the first step the students know what they will do on this activity, that’s mean students are understanding the meaning of sorting we ask the students who will finish first and do it on correct way they will get gift and stickers. Students learn through this activity about colors( red, blue, yellow and green) After we finish explaining and practice the activity we come back to the carpet. As a whole group, we made them use communication and collaboration by tern to each other and ask the student to explain to each other what they learned and what does sorting means to them? Students start to talk to each other after they finish they start to discuss it with us. We use formative assessment by ask the students if they are understanding give us thumps up if they didn’t understand give us humps down. We use a small activity at the end of the day that we have 3 bears with different sizes (large, medium and small) on the top of the bears its written the size. There is a file with different picture cards with 3 sizes (large, medium and small) the picture is (3 chairs, 3 beds, and 3 bowls) students sort the picture card depend on the size of bears. We start to read the sizes and then we called one student to sort by showing them the 3 pictures. After finishing the activity, we gave the students gifts and asking them to stand up to punch the card on them nicks.
