Year 4: Number and Place Value: Reading Roman Numerals to 100

Transcription

1 JAN ISSUE 5 featured in Year 4: Number and Place Value: Reading Roman Numerals to 100 (easily adapted for Year 5 : NPV 6: Read Roman Numerals to 1000) Summary: This lesson is designed to familiarise children with recognising Roman Numerals to 100. Find all the supporting resources for this lesson at pull out and keep! Starter: Present children with two number squares side by side. The first, the number square that they are familiar with; the second the equivalent presented in Roman Numerals. Use to engage initial partner discussion and investigation into patterns, comparisons, rules and values the children can identify for their Roman Numerals. This is a great Assessment for Learning opportunity. Teaching Input: Step 1: Explain that in this lesson we will be learning to read Roman Numerals to 100. Be sure to use children s interpretations, questions and any misconceptions gathered in the starter. Introduce the value of Roman Numerals: I, V, X,L, and C - our building blocks for making Roman Numerals to 100. Activities: This lesson plan suggests a range of activities suitable for a differentiated carousel or for securing and developing activities over several lessons. Activity 1: Roman Numeral learning through the DoodleMaths App. Load Reading Roman Numerals to 100 content prior to the lesson for your pupils to engage with on class tablets. Use 'Added Extras' in the teacher dashboard to assign 'Roman Numerals to C' content to your students. 'Roman Numerals to M' can be used as a learning extension. (Tip - set yourself up as a DoodleMaths student so you can model to children) Step 2: Demonstrate that numbers are formed by putting symbols together, largest first, and adding their values. Sometimes, to avoid having four symbols, we put a smaller symbol before a larger symbol. This means 'subtract', so for example, IV means 4. This concept will take the longest to secure in your teaching phase, but you will find that by engaging in a mastery style investigation in your starter, children are already beginning to build their understanding. Activity 2: Board Games! The children have already used their number squares as a discussion scaffold. Now get them to quickly draw three snakes and two ladders on their Roman Numeral square. Provide a dice and counters and play Roman Numeral snakes and ladders. When a child lands on a square, expect them to recognise its value, break down the component parts and justify its construction before they are allowed to place their counter.

2 LESSON PLAN: Year 4: Number and Place Value: Reading Roman Numerals to 100 This activity consolidates visual recognition of symbols and place value and starts to embed understanding of how numbers are formed. At this point, the 100 square is a scaffold. Find the resources to support ths lesson at Extras: Before the lesson begins, log onto the teacher dashboard. Select your class, add highlight all (including your own secret teacher pupil account!) and using the bulk tool, add extra topics to all student profiles: YR4 NPV 9 - Read Roman numerals to 100 (I to C) and know that over time, the numeral system changed to include the concept of zero and place value. YR5 NPV 6 - Read Roman numerals to 1000 (M) and recognise years written in Roman numerals. (YR3 MEAS 4 - Tell and write the time from an analogue clock, including using Roman numerals from I to XII, and 12-hour and 24-hour clocks.) Develop this activity by presenting a new board, where the Roman Numerals are now out sequence. It s an easy assessment to ask the children to identify the value of the Roman Numeral each time and extend their understanding by asking them to justify their reasoning. Activity 3: Roman Numeral Role-play - the Roman version of the 1 shop! All items cost no more than 100 and children create their own Roman coinage using a simple template. Children practice reading Roman Numerals through providing the right coinage for their shopping. As an extension, asking the shopkeeper to provide the correct change will deepen understanding. This game is perfect to challenge the thinking of your more able pupils and will create quality concept discussion. This activity can be easily adapted for all levels of differentiation. Board games, bingo, washing line and shopping activities all work well with this learning concept. For a bit of added enjoyment, why not create your own class Roman Numeral Number Rap? Just like the traditional square, there are so many other ways to use your Roman Numeral grid in activities to support concept understanding. Think outside the box! Plenary: Assess pupil understanding to inform your next teaching steps. Display questions related to the teaching concept from the DoodleMaths App on the IWB to support.
