Introduction
On completion of this Lesson students will be able to :
- Counting forward and backwards
- Complete addition and subtraction
- Count and write from 1 to 100
- Recognize numbers in various context
-Understand fractions
Task
Students will create a flower that will consist of five pedals and a carpel. The carpel (Middle of flower) will be a number that is chosen by the student. The pedals will consist of five different addition problems that will all equal to the number that is chosen by student.
Process
Instructions:
1. Think of a number 1-100
2. Write the number down and think of five addition or subtraction problems that will equal to the number you choose once solved. (For example, If the number 10. one of the pedals would include "5+5")
3. Use any color construction paper and cut out a circle and five pedals. Please be sure to make the pedals big enough to write on.
4. Write the number chosen, in the circle and the problems that will equal to the main number, on the pedals. (A total of five addition or subtraction problems should be included on your flower)
5. Glue the pedals around the circle so it may form a full flower.

Math Flower included five pedals and a center number. Only Some pedals equaled to the middle number. | Math flower did not include full five pedals. The problems equaled to middle number, but not enough addition or subtraction problems. |
Math Flower did not include five pedals. The problems did not equal to the middle number. There was no addition or subtraction. Little to no work completed. |
Conclusion
The lesson overall include counting and being able to recognize numbers in different forms. Learning the ability to add and subtract. The project goal is to help students become efficient with using numbers and thinking critically. The project will help them stimulate their brains to come up with a problem that matches a solution they choose.
