ASSURE Unit Plan
Topic:
Learning Fractions in the First grade
Analyze Learners:
 The learners will be around 6-7 years old and they will be in the first grade
 There are two special needs students in my classroom
State Objectives:
 M.1.G.1 -distinguish between defining attributes (e.g., triangles are closed and three-
sided) versus non-defining attributes (e.g., color, orientation, overall size), build and draw
shapes to possess defining attributes. (CCSS Math.1.G.1)
 M.1.G.2 - compose two-dimensional shapes (rectangles, squares, trapezoids, triangles,
half-circles and quarter-circles) or three-dimensional shapes (cubes, right rectangular
prisms, right circular cones and right circular cylinders) to create a composite shape and
compose new shapes from the composite shape. (Students do not need to learn formal
names such as “right rectangular prism.”)
 M.1.G.3 - partition circles and rectangles into two and four equal shares, describe the
shares using the words halves, fourths and quarters and use the phrases half of, fourth of

2. and quarter of, describe the whole as two of, or four of the shares and understand for
these examples that decomposing into more equal shares creates smaller shares. (CCSS
Math.1.G.3)
 M.1.OA.3 - apply properties of operations as strategies to add and subtract. Examples: If
8 + 3 = 11 is known, then 3 + 8 = 11 is also known. (Commutative Property of Addition.)
To add 2 + 6 + 4, the second two numbers can be added to make a ten, so 2 + 6 + 4 = 2 +
10 = 12. (Associative Property of Addition.) (Students need not use formal terms for
these properties.) (CCSS Math.1.OA.3)
 M.1.OA.4 - understand subtraction as an unknown-addend problem. For example,
subtract 10 – 8 by finding the number that makes 10 when added to 8. (CCSS
Math.1.OA.4)
 These standards ae available on this website

Select Media and Material
 Worksheets, Cutouts, Posters, and Games
 Day One: Start by asking the class if they have heard or know anything about fractions to
get an idea about the classes’ knowledge. Then Use posters and cutouts to explain to the
students what each fraction is. The poster that will be used this day will be
https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Fractions-of-an-Inch-chart-359734. The
worksheets that will be used on this day will be
https://www.superteacherworksheets.com/fractions-basic.html.
 Day Two: Bring fun worksheets that the students can interact with while learning and
understanding fractions. The worksheets that will be used on this day will be

3.  Day Three: I will give them a little harder worksheets to make sure the students
understand how to do fractions. While the students are working on the worksheet walk
around answering their questions. The worksheets that will be used this day will be
http://www.twinkl.co.uk/resource/t2-m-276-fractions-and-ordering-worksheet.
 Day Four: Split the students up into different groups have some students on the
computers and some doing worksheets and some using cutouts to draw in a journal. Then
after 20 min rotate the students. The computer games they will be working on will be
http://www.sheppardsoftware.com/mathgames/fractions/memory_fractions1.htm and
http://www.sheppardsoftware.com/mathgames/fractions/memory_fractions3.htm. The
worksheets the students will be using on this day will be

Require Learner Participation
 At the end of the week give students a worksheet that will test their knowledge of the
fractions and see how well they understand fractions.
Evaluate and Revise
 I will evaluate the students on how well they understand fractions by getting them into
groups and having them play a fraction board game and their answers to the game will let
me know if they understand fractions.
 M.1.G.1- will assessed by the student using the worksheets that are given to draw
different shapes of each fraction.

4.  M.1.G.2- be assessed by letting the students in a game or a worksheet to make their own
shapes using fractions to express theses shapes.
 M.1.G.3 – will be assessed by every activity and lesson that is taught and done during
this lesson plan.
 M.1.OA.3- will be assessed by teaching the students how to add up fractions. For
example one half + one half = one whole.
 M.1.OA.4- will be assessed by teaching the students how to subtract fractions. For
example One half- one half = zero.
