Content-based Material on Subtraction for grade II

Content-based materials description:

I have created a content-based material using ICT tools such as laptop and phone, internet, etc. The materials used are pictures and graphics, shape, colours. The topic that I chose was "Subtraction" for grade two since during that stage, kids are bound to learn and explore about 'Subtraction' (taking away, left over, decreasing, reducing, etc). To teach the class two kids the Subtraction, firstly I drew a small scene of a beautiful village and the pets (cats) as most of the kids tend to often see the cats around their village or home and adopting pet is a common culture in most of the community. Also, kids that age are more likely to love the pets so boosting their interest in learning the topic using the object that they love to see. Using the pets (cats) as the symbols for representing the numbers that are required to find the difference (subtraction), I was intended to teach my grade two students the clear concept of Subtraction successfully.

I have voice recorded the whole process of doing the subtraction using the animation tools from the power-point presentation which is provided beneath: 

For the learning activities, I have designed the pictures and shapes using the ICT tools where I gave few questions with clear word problems so that children can understand the questions properly as given below:

Learning Activity:

Instruction:

• Teacher will give the children with pictorial word questions regarding subtraction.
• Students will see the pictures and solve the questions using the any subtraction strategies taught by the teacher before.
• Looking at the pictures, kids will subtract and with the help of shapes and graphics, provide a correct answer.
• Children will fill up the blank of the answers provided in the picture.
• After the completion of the activity, students will be required to send their work through teacher’s email.
• The activity should be all due before the next class.
