Unit 3 MGSE2.OA.3

Unpacking the StandardIn grade 1, students used addition within 20 and skip counting to arrive at a particular number. In grade 2, students classify numbers up to 20 as odd or even. Students learn why a number is called even (e.g., It can be represented as a certain number of pairs with nothing left over, as a sum of equal addends, or as the sum of a doubles fact.) rather than simply memorizing a list of even numbers. Students also learn that an odd number is a number that is not even, so it does not have the attributes of an even number.

Introduction: Unit 3 MGSE2.OA.3 student page 17

Start Here

1 Assessment of Prerequisite Skills The teacher may assign the Assessment of Prerequisite Skills for Unit 3 as an online assignment. Students log in to Total Motivation Math™ and complete this pre-assessment. The teacher may access the Reports area to review student performance and use the information to plan additional instruction to help students develop an understanding of the concepts in this unit.

2 Introduction Activity (DOK: 2, RBT: Apply)The teacher reads Even Steven and Odd Todd by Kathryn Cristaldi. The teacher and class discuss numbers that Even Steven and Odd Todd might like. The teacher distributes a set of cards numbered 1–20 and 20 interlocking cubes to each small group of 2 to 4 students. Students create pairs of cubes to determine if each number 1–20 is even or odd and sort the numbered cards into two stacks based on their findings. The teacher creates a class T-chart on chart paper and glues a picture of Even Steven at the top of one column and a picture of Odd Todd at the top of the other column. The teacher selects students to record numbers 1–20 in the appropriate columns of the chart. As students record the numbers, they explain and justify the classifications and respond to the reasoning of others with constructive feedback.

3 Formative Assessment (DOK: 1, RBT: Apply)The teacher divides the students into two groups and assigns one group to represent Even Steven and the other group to represent Odd Todd. The teacher calls a number between 1 and 20. If the number is odd, the students assigned Odd Todd hold up one finger. If the number is even, the students assigned Even Steven hold up two fingers. Students explain the reasoning for their responses. The class repeats the activity several times. The teacher may choose to select students to call numbers. The teacher observes student responses and explanations and plans further instruction to address student misunderstandings.

4 Connecting to the Student Edition: IntroductionThe teacher may wish to work with the students as a whole group or in small groups to complete the Introduction page in the student edition. If desired, this page can be projected from the online component for whole group instruction.

5 Answers1. 15 oranges; odd

Explanations will vary. Students may indicate that, when the oranges are paired, there is one left over.14 oranges; even Explanations will vary. Since 14 is the sum of 7 + 7, the oranges can be arranged in 7 pairs.

2. 10 + 10 = 20 acorns even Explanations will vary. Since 20 is the sum of 10 + 10, the acorns can be arranged in 10 pairs.

Vocabulary/Journal: Unit 3 MGSE2.OA.3 student page 18

1 Vocabulary FocusThe teacher introduces the essential vocabulary terms for this unit.

addends equation pair sum

column even number row T-chart

equal sign (=) odd number

2 Vocabulary Activity (DOK: 1, RBT: Understand)Students work with partners. The teacher provides 10 index cards for each pair. Students write one vocabulary term per card, shuffle the cards, and place the deck facedown between them. The first student draws the top card and describes the term to the partner. The student may not use the term itself in the description. For example, when describing the word “sum,” a student might say, “This is the answer to an addition problem,” or “If I add 2 and 2, the number 4 is this word.” Students continue, alternating turns, until they have used all vocabulary cards in the deck.

3 Vocabulary Formative Assessment (DOK: 1, RBT: Understand)The teacher calls or displays directions related to vocabulary terms, and students respond in math journals.

• If 8 is an even number, record an example of an equation. If 8 is an odd number, draw a picture of a pair of socks.

• If 15 is an even number, create a T-chart for odd and even numbers. If 15 is an odd number, write all the odd numbers from 1 to 19.

• If 20 is an even number, draw an array with two columns. If 20 is an odd number, draw an array with two rows.

The teacher reviews student journal responses and clarifies the meanings of vocabulary terms as needed.

4 Connecting to the Student Edition: Vocabulary/JournalAt this point, the teacher may wish to assign the Vocabulary Activity and/or the Journal prompt in the student edition. The Journal prompt may also be reserved as a reflection/closure activity.

5 AnswersVocabulary Activity evenoddodd

Journal Answers will vary. When an odd number of items are placed in pairs, there is one item left over.

1 Instructional Activities (Select from the following activities.) 1. The teacher provides a set of 20 counters to each pair of students. One student says a number up to

20, and the other student counts that number of counters. Together they pair the counters representing the given number to determine if the number is even or odd. If the number is even, students record an equation to represent the number as the sum of two equal addends. Students record results in math journals. (DOK: 1, RBT: Apply)

2. Students write a list of doubles facts (e.g., 1 + 1 = 2, 2 + 2 = 4, 3 + 3 = 6) with sums up to 20 in one column of a T-chart. In a second column, they write a list of near doubles facts (e.g., 1 + 2 = 3; 2 + 3 = 5; 3 + 4 = 7) with sums up to 20. Students describe the patterns they observe in the sums and label the columns as “Even” and “Odd.” (DOK: 1, RBT: Apply)

2 Formative Assessment (DOK: 2, RBT: Apply)The teacher displays a sheet of butcher paper printed with a large T-chart. One column of the chart is labeled “Odd Numbers,” and the other is labeled “Even Numbers.” The teacher distributes a sticky note printed with a number from 1 to 20 to each student or to each pair of students and directs students to determine whether their numbers are odd or even. The teacher provides ten frames, counters, cubes, or other objects for students to use as needed. Each student or pair places the sticky note in the appropriate column of the chart. The teacher and class discuss the completed chart. The teacher provides opportunities for students to explain the reasoning for their responses and to request clarifications on the reasoning of others.

3 Connecting to the Student Edition: Partner PracticeAt this point in the lesson, the teacher may wish to have students work with partners to complete the Partner Practice page in the student edition, in print or online. If desired, this page can be projected from the online component as student pairs debrief the completed work and the class discusses the results of the practice.

Independent Practice: Unit 3 MGSE2.OA.3 student page 20

1 Instructional Activities (Select from the following activities.) 1. The teacher writes the numbers 1 to 20 on index cards and gives the cards to pairs of students. One

student draws a card and counts by 2s to try to reach the number on the card. The student determines whether the number on the card is even or odd based on whether the number is spoken when counting by 2s. The other student checks the first student’s answer and then draws a card to repeat the activity. (DOK: 1, RBT: Apply)

2. On index cards, the teacher writes doubles and near doubles facts with one addend missing (e.g., 4 + = 8 and + 6 = 11). Students use counters to find each missing addend. Students write the correct addends on the cards and sort the cards into piles based on whether the sum is odd or even. (DOK: 2, RBT: Apply)

2 Formative Assessment (DOK: 2, RBT: Analyze)The teacher displays probing questions.

• In your daily life, why might you need to know which numbers are even and which numbers are odd?• How would you explain even and odd numbers to a younger student?• How might you determine if a number over 100 is even or odd?

Students discuss the questions in pairs. Then each student records responses in a personal math journal. The teacher reviews student journal responses and plans interventions to address identified student needs.

3 Connecting to the Student Edition: Independent PracticeAt this point, the teacher may wish to assign the Independent Practice page to be completed independently in the student edition using either the print or online component. If the online component is used, student work is graded automatically and results may be viewed in the Reports area.

1 Reflection/Closure Activity (DOK: 3, RBT: Create)At the conclusion of instruction, it is recommended that the teacher engage students in an activity that allows them to reflect upon their learning and summarize main concepts.

The teacher divides the students into groups of 3 or 4 and privately gives each group a name, either “The Evens” or “The Odds.” Each group creates a song, drama, rap, or poster to represent its name.

2 Formative Assessment (DOK: 1, RBT: Understand)The groups present their work from the Reflection/Closure Activity to the class. After each presentation, class members try to guess the group’s name. Students hold up their right hands to signify “The Evens” or their left hands to signify “The Odds.” The teacher observes individual student responses, as well as group presentations, and offers any needed clarifications.

3 Connecting to the Student Edition: Assessment At this point, the teacher may choose to assign the Assessment pages in the print or online component. Note that if the online component is used, the first page of the Assessment uses a selected-response format and will be scored by the computer. The second page of the Assessment will be teacher graded. After students complete the Assessment, the teacher may access the Reports area to review students’ results. Following the completion of the Assessment pages, the teacher uses the information to plan additional instruction and/or interventions.

4 Answers1. B, D, and E2. B3. D4. C

5 Interventions (Select from the following activities.) After students complete the Assessment pages, the teacher determines which students are in need of further instruction and selects one or more of the Intervention activities for individual students or small groups of students.

1. Students work with partners. The teacher provides each pair with 20 tokens and 2 ten frames. The teacher prepares 20 index cards with numbers from 1 to 20 written on one side and “even” or “odd” written on the back. The teacher places the cards number side up. Students select the top card and place the designated number of tokens in the ten frames (beginning in the upper left corner of the first frame). Students determine if the number is even or odd. Students check for understanding by turning the index card over. Students continue until all numbers have been modeled. (DOK: 2, RBT: Understand)

2. The teacher provides empty egg cartons and small objects to pairs or small groups of students. Students place up to 12 objects in cartons to determine if the number is even or odd. If every item has a partner, the number is even. If one item does not have a partner, the number of objects is odd. (DOK: 2, RBT: Understand)

1 Connecting to the Student Edition: Assessment The second Assessment page utilizes an open-response format. Students may complete this page in either the print or online component. This page is teacher graded but allows students to communicate their thinking.

2 Answers5. Equations and pictures will vary. Students should draw an even number of flowers.6. odd

Explanations will vary. Students might explain that there is a leftover penny when the coins are paired, that the pennies cannot be separated into two equal groups, that the number 17 is not named when skip counting by 2s, or that 17 is not the sum of a doubles fact.

7. oddeven

3 Interventions (Select from the following activities.) 1. The teacher provides each student pair with stir straws and 20 or fewer berries, grapes, marshmallows,

or other objects that fit easily on stir straws. The partners count the objects and state whether the number is odd or even. To verify the answer, the partners place pairs of objects on each stir straw until all objects have been used. If there is a straw with only one object, students determine that the number is odd. If each straw holds two objects, students determine that the number is even. Students record the numbers and classifications in math journals. If a number is even, students record an equation to represent the number as the sum of two equal addends. The addends will be the same as the number of stir straws used. For example, for the even number 8, students use 4 straws and record 4 + 4 = 8. (DOK: 2, RBT: Understand)

2. The teacher provides a set of three cards printed with numbers between 1 and 20 to each pair of students. Some sets contain two cards printed with even numbers and one card printed with an odd number. Other sets contain one card printed with an even number and two cards printed with odd numbers. The partners state which number is not like the others and explain their reasoning. Students may use cubes or counters to justify their responses. Students may ask questions or offer feedback on the reasoning of others. (DOK: 2, RBT: Analyze)

3. The teacher calls a group of students to stand at the front of the classroom. Students determine if the number of standing students is even or odd. Students might choose to stand in pairs. If a student is without a partner, the teacher emphasizes that there is an odd number of students. Alternatively, the students might attempt to divide into two equal groups. If two equal groups can be formed, the number of students is even. Otherwise, the number is odd. (DOK: 2, RBT: Understand)

4 Formative Assessment (DOK: 1, RBT: Understand)Students work in pairs. In turn, one partner tells how to determine if a number is even or odd. The other partner provides feedback, suggestions, or clarifications. Students then share their mutual understandings with the larger group. The teacher monitors student discussions, providing further clarifications or feedback as needed.

1 Connecting to the Student Edition: Critical ThinkingThe teacher determines if students will complete the Critical Thinking questions in the print or online version and assigns one or both questions. Students may work individually, with partners, or in small groups to solve the problems. The teacher may also choose to solve one or both problems as a whole group activity, projecting the Critical Thinking page from the online component. In addition, the teacher may elect to assign the Critical Thinking questions over more than one class period.

2 Answers1. Equations will vary.

2. Pictures will vary.

3 Extending Student Thinking Extending Student Thinking offers suggestions for differentiated instruction for students in need of an additional challenge.

The teacher reviews Even Steven and Odd Todd, read during the Introduction Activity. Students design houses for an Even/Odd street. The teacher assigns each student a house number 1 to 20. Students use construction paper to create houses with the assigned numbers clearly visible. If a house number is even, the house should have an even number of windows, flowers, bricks, chimneys, etc. If a house number is odd, the house should have an odd number of windows, flowers, bricks, chimneys, etc. Students decorate houses to reflect even or odd numbers. (DOK: 3, RBT: Create)

4 Formative Assessment (DOK: 2, RBT: Understand)The teacher displays the houses created during Extending Student Thinking in order on a wall or bulletin board, with the even numbers on one side of the street and the odd numbers on the other. Students create a name for the street. During the week, each student records, in a personal math journal, two reflections or insights about the even and odd house numbers. The teacher reviews the journal entries and offers appropriate feedback.
