Vocabulary: set, adding, subtracting, primary color, secondary color
Instructional Strategies: Using the activity board will motivate students to engage in learning by participating in activity.
Modifications: Since the class will be working together in solving the story problems, students who have special needs will be included in the whole group activity. This will benefit these students because they will be among peers who excel in this area and will learn from watching them.
Assessment: How well students do during lesson and on the extension activity will determine what needs to be re-taught and how well students understand the concept.
