The document outlines a lesson plan for a first grade class. It will introduce 16 students to concepts of currency, including identifying coins and bills, understanding their use in monetary exchange, and learning about presidents featured on money. Students will engage with materials like books, videos, and posters about US currency and its global context. They will complete an art project designing their own money and will be assessed throughout the multi-day lesson plan.

1. Day 1 ASSURE
 Students will be in the first grade with previous knowledge of counting numbers
and patterns. The classroom will consist of 16 students, 9 girls and 7 boys, 2 with
ADHD, and 1 with autism. Students will have a previous knowledge of counting,
addition and subtraction, completing word problems in math, as well as a basic
knowledge on how to make arts and bots from previous class activities.
 Students will be able to identify coins and dollar bills and use them in a practical
sense in exchange of goods. Students will use a variety of digital and physical
material to begin understanding currency in the United States and other countries.
Students will be tested along the way by their cumulative knowledge used
throughout the weeks lesson plans.
 First to introduce the concept of presidents and how they can relate to money we
will be reading the book President’s Day while listening to a podcast of the
book’s contents to help capture vocabulary. Then students will watch a video on
the book The Coin Counting Book to connect how presidents relate to our money
in the United States. Next we will look at a poster that shows a basic one dollar
bill that students can relate to now in comparison to some other forms of money
around the world. This will help students understand the globalization of money.
The next poster we will look at will be about more facts on United States currency
and the faces that can be found on it. Last students will compete an art project
where they make their own money with their faces on it. They will also
demonstrate to their classmates why they chose the colors and pictures that they
chose for their currency.

2.  Students will have to use the information given in the first day to complete the
activities given in the following days. As the students progress through the
materials given in day one they will be asked oral questions inside the readings as
well as the video provided.
 Students will have access to the digital materials outside the classroom and will
be asked to review the materials at home before coming to class the next day in
order to be competent in these subjects.
