I can identify a circle.
I can sort classroom objects into groups with 1 item.
I can describe how I sorted or grouped the items and why.
Challenging & Open-ended Questions:
How do you know this is only one item?
Can you find something in the classroom that is alone?
What happens if you add another item will it still be one?
DOK Skills:
Recall, match, identify, color, draw, create
Count 1 object from each category in the classroom. Integrated through playbased tasks, daily classroom routines, and hands-on exploration to foster problem-solving in meaningful contexts.
Date: Day:

Identify the number 1 and represent it using real objects.
Count and recognize 1 object from a group.
Demonstrate one-to-one correspondence when matching one item to one space or number.

English: Vocabulary items (apple, cat, alligator, etc.)
ICT: Presentation PLUS and Interactive Mobile App.
Encouraged through guided exploration and peer discussion on quantities
Describing reasoning for identifying only 1 item (e.g., “It’s alone.”)
Ask child to find 1 item at home from 3 different categories (e.g., 1 toy, 1 fruit, 1 book) and share in class.
Share a photo of child identifying “1” at home via class communication
Use visual aids (e.g., flashcards, toys, real objects like fruit or classroom items).
Play a simple song or counting rhyme.
Ask thought-provoking questions: What do you see? Can you find just 1 thing?
Show a mystery bag with one item and ask students to guess.
Allow students to manipulate objects (buttons, blocks, pompoms) and group them by 1.
Set up stations: Find 1 red item, Pick 1 fruit.
Pair work: Give your friend 1 object. Let them investigate with minimal instruction to develop curiosity.

Worksheet: Circle the group that has only 1 item.
Ex 1, page 2, workbook
Color the number
Use a whiteboard or chart to write the number "1" and show its symbol.
Model how to count only 1 object from a set.
Discuss shapes: “This is a circle because it’s round.”

Encourage students to sort a variety of items into “only 1” groups.
Connect math to a real-life classroom task: “Place 1 pencil in each box.”
Play a game: “Circle Hunt” –find and mark all circles around the class.
Integrate art: Draw 1 item or make a craft circle.

Ask guiding questions: How do you know it is only one?
Students show 1 object from a basket.
Conduct a quick quiz or worksheet: Circle only 1 item from a group.
Oral reflection: What did we learn today?
For support: Use larger objects, more visuals, repeated modeling, and peer buddying.
For extension: Ask students to group and explain why 1 is different from 2 or 3.
Use visual tools (counters, sand tracing, number mats) based on learner needs.
