Grade 1 Module 2 Lesson 5 Topic A: This product is part of a series that double as digital lessons for the Concept Development portion of the Engage New York Eureka lessons and also has interactive Google slides for student practice. Join the Math Detectives as they investigate Professor Winston's invention of the math robots. The goal of this lesson is to compare strategies of making a 10 versus counting on when the addend in an addition problem is 9.

The Math Detectives watch as the robots face off in a competition of quick and efficient ways of solving for the unknown sum in addition problems with an addend of 9. The math robots calculate on their screens their thinking process of each strategy. Students are encouraged to also solve on their individual whiteboards or in their notebooks as the math robots arrive to their answers through their chosen process.

Following the lesson are independent slides containing fill ins to demonstrate comprehension of the lesson (text boxes are set up and ready as is). The slides are scaffolded to provide for differentiated instruction amongst each learner's individual needs providing a variety of supports as well as various unknowns to be solved for a comprehensive demonstration of the fluency of this objective.

This product promotes independence by following the model "I do, we do, you do" for gradual release of responsibility for students to become independent in mastering this objective as the Math Detectives ask questions and students are encouraged to discuss, use their manipulatives correctly, and draw on their whiteboards during the lesson. Independent slides are scaffolded to meet the needs of various learners. PLEASE NOTE: The lesson portion is to be displayed in present mode. The independent slides are only interactive when completed in edit mode.

This product has 20 interactive Google slides for independent or small group practice after the whole group lesson to be shared on your interactive whiteboard or other screen. The practice portion can be assigned in Google Classroom or Seesaw (again: this portion is interactive only when in edit mode but can be presented in present mode and annotated using Smartboard tools or Zoom annotation tools if using them as guided practice done together).

This lesson supports CCSS Operations and Algebraic Thinking, particularly CCSS.1.OA.3 and CCSS.1.OA.6. It also reinforces critical mathematical practices, particularly MP1 and MP2. It is designed for early first grade (more specifically it is aligned with Module 2 Lesson 5 of Eureka) but can also be used for second half of kindergarten to address operations and algebraic thinking standards or as a second grade review. Please note that this product can be incorporated into any curriculum to enhance the comprehension of the CCSS and math practices that are universally taught.

The slides in this product line are designed to appear as though you are looking through binoculars, using a camera to take photos, using a magnifying glass, and taking notes on a notepad - just like a real detective hunting for number clues! This lesson will help your kiddos conceptualize fluency with addition and subtraction and recognize that there is more than one way to solve a math problem but still arrive at the same answer!

The scenes in this product presents a storyline similar to word problems and promotes problem-solving skills that are mainly designed to promote student discourse and discussion to learn to explain their mathematical thinking.

Use this lesson as whole group shared on your Interactive whiteboard in the classroom, share on your screen on Google Meet or Zoom for distant learning, or displayed for a small group lesson. Remember, use the lesson portion in present mode! Each slide is annotated with dialogue in speech bubbles to guide your lesson, but feel free to make it your own! These lessons cover the Concept Development portion of Eureka lessons (but will enhance any curriculum addressing Common Core State Standards) and serve as an engaging visual lesson for your students, all while making it no-prep for you as the teacher! Each slide is designed to serve as a foundation for which math discourse in the classroom can build and grow!

After the lesson are the independent slides for students. You can assign these slides in Google Classroom or on Seesaw (or any other program that supports Google slide products). Simply hold "ctrl" to select the slides you want to assign, go to file and make a copy. From there you can assign as you normally would on your preferred digital platform. These slides are interactive when in edit mode only! These slides are great as a supplement for the Problem Set in Eureka, independent practice, homework, early finishers, or for virtual math centers.
