Lesson Content
What Standards (national
or state) relate to this
lesson?

CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.MD.C.8
Solve word problems involving dollar bills, quarters, dimes, nickels, and
pennies, using $ and symbols appropriately. Example: If you have 2 dimes and
3 pennies, how many cents do you have?

Essential Understanding

How do you order coins to help find the total value of a group of coins?

Objectives- What are you

teaching?

When provided with a word problem involving coins, students will be able to order the
coins based on value and determine the sum, 80% of the time.

Rationale

Students must be able to master this strategy in order to have more strategies
available to them to use when faced with real life money situations.

Evaluation Plan- How will

you know students have
mastered your objectives?

Formative Evidence: Teacher will be taking observational notes throughout the lesson,
as well as asking students to self evaluate through out the lesson. Students group
activity sheet will be observed through the lesson to determine if they are able to
move on to the independent work.
Summative Evidence: The student will turn in their self evaluation sheet and the end of
the lesson. Students independent work in the workbook will also be reviewed.

What Content Knowledge

is necessary for a teacher
to teach this material?

Teacher must know the value of coins.

Teacher must know how to explain why you should place coins in order based on their
value.

What background
knowledge is necessary
for a student to
successfully meet these
objectives?

Students must understand the value of coins.

Students must understand that placing the coins in order will assist them in
determining the total value.

What misconceptions
might students have
about this content?

Student will probably struggle with counting the sets of different value coins using the
same value. If this occurs then I will refer back to the challenge question and how it
assisted us to place them in order based on value but that we must remember that
different coins have different values.

1. Who is
Each content area may require a different step-by-step format.
responsibl Use whichever plan is appropriate for the content taught in this
e?
lesson. For example, in science, you would detail the 5 Es here
(Engage/Encountering the Idea; Exploring the Idea;
Explanation/Organizing the Idea; Extend/Applying the Idea;
Evaluation).
1.

Review
Teacher will ask students to turn and talk with their table
teams and discuss What did we learn yesterday? Teacher will
be walking around and touch and go conferencing with as many
groups possible.
We will then discuss as a class what was talked about. What
I discussed with ____ was or What my partner said was
2.
Introduce skill focus
So far from the discussion and your self reflections from
yesterdays lesson you have shown me that you are ready to
move on to the next skill.
Teacher will then introduce the skill focus for this lesson:
Ordering coins by value.
Teacher will then ask a student to read the essential question
for the lesson:
How do you order coins to help find the total value of a
group of coins?
Have students highlight in the book. Ask why we need to
learn this, have students turn and talk then discuss.
3.

Challenge Problem
Teacher will then pretend to spill coins onto the floor. The
teacher is to pick up the coins and place them on the white board
being projected on the ELMO. Question should be written on the
mini white board and projected for students to see. Then the
teacher will say I want to buy a packet of gum, it costs $1.17, do
I have enough?

1.
Checkpoint- Ask students to complete the first check
point on the self evaluation.
4.

Model problem
Teacher can completely model a problem, or may call on a
student to come up and work the problem. Teacher should be
asking guiding questions during this time.
