During the lesson, the students will solve three fraction problems by converting fractions to decimals. Blooms taxonomy: Applying (Lower level of thinking) During the lesson, the students will identify decimal places by verbalized the names of each place value. Blooms taxonomy: Remembering (Lower level of thinking) At the end of the lesson, the students will demonstrate reducing fractions to lowest terms by working a problem on the board. Blooms taxonomy: Applying (Lower level of thinking) At the end of the lesson, the students will calculate problems for missing terms by using ratio and proportion. Blooms taxonomy: Analyzing (Higher level of thinking) By the end of the lesson, the students will convert …show more content…

Blooms taxonomy: Applying (Lower level of thinking) These objectives meet the standards of integrating principles of quality improvement and safety into nursing practice within health care organizations and systems by learning and practicing basic math concepts that will assist the student in accurately calculating dosages.
Instructional Strategy While basic math is a pre-requisite concept and skill that the learner must know before encountering this unit, basic math concepts must be reviewed as a part of this unit based on previous experience with teaching nursing mathematics. Many of these basic math components like fractions, and ratio and proportion are not commonly used every day, although the processes used to calculate these problems like division and multiplication are. Therefore, the first day of this unit is a basic mathematics review. An essential role of a nurse is providing safe medication administration to patients. To accurately perform dosage calculations, the nurse must have knowledge of basic math. The instructional strategies utilized on this day of this …show more content…

If students are having issues with the concept, the instruction is adjusted to narrow the gap between where students understanding is and where it needs to be. This can be done through guided questions posed to the students and descriptive feedback given to those who are having more difficulty throughout the unit. Questions would be posed to the students regarding how to work problems after the PowerPoint and videos, if students are unable to appropriately answer questions then information will be revised and presented in another way before moving on to the learning activity. While students are in groups discussing how they arrived at the answers they did on the practice questions, formative assessment will take place by walking around the room listening to each groups discussion, asking guided questions regarding their answers, work, and reasoning for how they did the problem like they did. If students are still not understanding the information, more time would be given in this activity to provide descriptive feedback to students before proceeding to student demonstrations. Formative assessment will also take place during student demonstrations of working problems, in which case, formative assessment questions posed could allow for the analysis of other ways to achieve the answer as well as other solutions. At the end of the

To complete this assignment, I first went online to search for fifth-grade fraction activities, with a focus on multiplication. After reviewing numerous potential activities I eventually landed on Fraction Flip-It, which is a game that allows students to create their own fractions depending on where they place the cards drawn. This was a large draw because the game could be played any number of times without students solving the same equation over and over. Once I had settled on the activity and how it would be set up, I began building a lesson around it. I wanted to make sure students had the necessary knowledge to succeed, which is why I included the pre-assessment Plicker quiz.

“Does anyone know what the word quotient means? We have briefly talked about it in the last few weeks, but does anyone remember what the word means?” Take a few answers. “Great, a quotient is the answer to a division problem. So, if I said (write this on the board as you say it) what is the quotient of five divided by one, what would our answer be?” Have a student answer, and model on board.

). By showing them passion and being enthusiastic I would motivate them to achieve their targets. Wallace (2006), states that if outcomes are not achieved by students the lesson is not achieving the primary purpose. This is why assessing plays a significant role in the learning process. Formative assessment gives feedback about the learners’ progress through the course and a summative assessment is carried out at the end of the course and this is a formal way to check if the learner has met the outcomes of the course (Gravells 2014).

For example, Exercises 1, 2, and 3 asks students to look at a picture, and count sand pails, books, and balls in a playground scene. After counting the objects, students write numbers next to the picture. This exercise is differentiated according to the needs and levels of the students. Higher level students can write numbers in word form by sounding out the words or choosing the words from a list. It is beneficial in acquiring the

Culminating or Closing Procedure/Activity/Event: Before the end of the lesson, each learner will come in front of the class and read out loud the points written down (Yasuda, 2014). This will help see the progress made in the lesson and also check any area that requires clarification. Pedagogical Strategy (or Strategies): Both cooperative learning and direct instructional strategies will be used. Direct instructions will be given to the respective groups, and then the group members will cooperate to ensure they get the work done. Working in groups will ensure the group members assist each other when the teacher is helping the other groups.

The theory’s first stage is the attention phase and requires students to pay attention to the skill which is being taught in an environment that is conducive for and provides the necessary condition needed for learning to occur. As the expert nurse educator demonstrates the skill while students’ pay attention by observing what the instructor is demonstrating; this can be seen as role modeling. Therefore, an expert educator demonstrates competently the techniques associated with oral administration of medication; clearly, it is important that student nurses observe this procedure being done. In addition, another important determiner when paying attention has to do with the students’ goals, self-esteem, and competence; all these components are acted upon as each student processes the

The class was also familiar with how to use Plickers, so this helped the lesson run smoothly. Also, the students could tell me what they learned at the end of the lesson and even give me their own examples of how to use multiplication and division in the real world. I feel the lesson was successful because the students grasped what the purpose of the lesson was and could even create their own situations to the real world, which indicates the use of higher order thinking skills in Bloom’s Taxonomy. I would improve my time management skills. My lesson went over 20 minutes and I should have been more aware of the time.

My first assessment helps to achieve this by having the students do a simple but a to the point task that takes prior knowledge that they may have already and apply it to this and make a pro/con list and a list of what can be improved upon. It is testing their initial knowledge and understanding, which allows the teacher to see where they may need help or improvement. The informal formative assessment that I chose is having students work in pairs to assess how well each other pair of students is understanding the material. This allows the students to practice different ways so that they can better retain the information. This will help them to form a different way to allow the students to study these concepts.
