Lesson 6

Center Day 1 (optional)

Lesson Purpose

The purpose of this lesson is for students to represent numbers on a number line and practice addition and subtraction within 100.

Lesson Narrative

This lesson is optional because it is an opportunity for extra practice that not all classes may need. In Activity 1, students learn stage 1 of a new center called Number Line Scoot, where they generate numbers and move that interval on shared number lines. The goal is to land exactly on the end of each number line. In Activity 2, students choose an activity to work on addition and subtraction.
