Lesson 18

The purpose of this Number Talk is to elicit strategies and understandings students have for adding and subtracting one. These understandings help students develop fluency. When students relate adding and subtracting one to the count sequence, they look for and make use of structure (MP7).

• Display one expression.
• “Hagan una señal cuando tengan una respuesta y puedan explicar cómo la obtuvieron” // “Give me a signal when you have an answer and can explain how you got it.”
• 1 minute: quiet think time

• Record answers and strategy.
• Keep expressions and work displayed.
• Repeat with each expression.

• If needed, ask “¿Cómo pueden usar un conteo para encontrar el valor de estas expresiones?” // “How can you use counting to find the value of these expressions?” (I can start at the first number and count forward or backward 1. I can think about the number that comes before or after when I count.)

The purpose of this activity is for students to solve a Put Together, Total Unknown story problem and a related Put Together/Take Apart, Both Addends Unknown story problem (MP2). Students may use the solution from the first story problem to help them solve the second story problem.

• Students can use their bead tool from a previous lesson.

• Groups of 2
• Give students access to connecting cubes or two-color counters, bead tools, and 10-frames.
• Read and display the task statement.
• “Cuéntenle a su compañero lo que ocurrió en la historia” // “Tell your partner what happened in the story.”
• 30 seconds: quiet think time
• 1 minute: partner discussion
• “Muestren cómo pensaron. Usen dibujos, números, palabras u objetos” // “Show your thinking using drawings, numbers, words, or objects.”

• 2 minutes: independent work time
• 2 minutes: partner discussion
• Repeat the steps with the second problem.
• Monitor for students who use the numbers from the first story problem to solve the second problem and for students who find other solutions.

• “¿En qué se parecen los dos problemas-historia?” // “How are the two story problems the same?” (They are both about pigeons. There are 10 pigeons in both story problems.)
• “¿En qué son diferentes los dos problemas-historia?” // “How are the two story problems different?” (In the first problem I know how many pigeons are in the fountain and how many are on the bench. In the second problem I know that there are 10 pigeons, but I don’t know how many are on the fountain and how many are on the bench. There is more than 1 way to solve the second story problem.)
• Invite a student who used the solution from the first story problem to solve the second story problem to share.
• “¿Cómo supieron que podía haber 6 palomas en la fuente y 4 palomas en la banca?” // “How did you know that there could be 6 pigeons in the fountain and 4 pigeons on the bench?” (In the first story problem there were 6 in the fountain and 4 on the bench.)
• “¿Había otras formas de resolver el segundo problema-historia?” // “Were there any other ways to solve the second story problem?” (There could be 5 pigeons in the fountain and 5 on the bench.)
• “En la siguiente actividad, intentaremos encontrar todas las maneras en las que las 10 palomas podrían estar en la fuente y en la banca” // “In the next activity, we will try to find all of the ways that the 10 pigeons could be in the fountain and on the bench.”

The purpose of this activity is for students to find all of the compositions and decompositions of 10 in the context of a Put Together/Take Apart, Both Addends Unknown story problem. Monitor for students who:

• change the number of red and yellow counters on a 10-frame (MP5).
• move the beads on a bead tool (MP5).
• use their knowledge, possibly from memory, of different decompositions of 10.
• use patterns such as switching the number of pigeons in the fountain and on the bench (MP7).

The purpose of the activity synthesis is to use the 10-frame and the bead tool to visualize how the parts that make 10 are related, specifically that adding one to one number takes one away from the other number in the decomposition.

• Students can use their bead tool from a previous lesson.
• Create a chart displaying solutions to be used during the lesson synthesis.

  pigeons in the fountain	pigeons on the bench
  9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1	1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

• Groups of 2
• Give students access to connecting cubes or two-color counters, bead tools, and 10-frames.
• Display and read the task statement.
• “Con su compañero, muestren todas las maneras en las que las 10 palomas podrían estar en la fuente y en la banca” // “Work with your partner to show all of the ways that the 10 pigeons could be in the fountain and on the bench.”

• 7 minutes: partner work time

• Display a 10-frame with 9 red counters and 1 yellow counter and a bead tool with 9 beads on the left and 1 on the right.

• “¿Cómo se ve una solución del problema-historia en el tablero de 10 y en la herramienta de chaquiras?” // “How do the 10-frame and the bead tool show a solution for the story problem?” (There can be 9 pigeons in the fountain and 1 pigeon on the bench.)
• Switch one red counter to yellow, as pictured, and move 1 bead from the right to the left.

• “¿Qué pasa si cambio una de las fichas rojas por una amarilla? ¿Qué pasa si corro una chaquira?” // “What if I change one of the red counters to yellow? What if I move one bead over?” (Then 8 pigeons are in the fountain and 2 pigeons are on the bench.)
• “¿Puedo seguir cambiando fichas rojas por amarillas? ¿Puedo seguir moviendo las chaquiras hacia el otro lado? ¿Qué ocurrirá?” // “Can I keep changing red counters to yellow? Can I keep moving the beads to the other side? What will happen?” (Yes, more pigeons will be on the bench and fewer pigeons will be in the fountain.)

The purpose of this activity is for students to choose from activities that offer practice with number and shape concepts. Students choose from 5 centers introduced in previous units. Students can choose to work at any stage of the centers.

• Shake and Spill
• Number Race
• Grab and Count
• What's Behind My Back?
• Pattern Blocks

Students will continue to choose from these centers in upcoming lessons. Keep the materials from each center organized to use each day.

• Gather materials from:
  • Shake and Spill
  • Number Race
  • Grab and Count
  • What's Behind My Back?
  • Pattern Blocks

• Groups of 2
• “Hoy vamos a escoger centros de los que ya conocemos” // “Today we are going to choose from centers we have already learned.”
• Display the center choices in the student book.
• “Piensen qué les gustaría hacer primero” // “Think about what you would like to do first.”
• 30 seconds: quiet think time

• Invite students to work at the center of their choice.
• 8 minutes: center work time
• “Escojan qué les gustaría hacer ahora” // “Choose what you would like to do next.”
• 8 minutes: center work time

• “¿Por qué les parece divertido trabajar en los centros?” // “What makes working in centers fun for you?“
