Materials for the lesson

No Materials are needed

Layout of the classroom

Teacher is going to clap his / her hands and students will move in the classroom and also students are going to make a circle to count rhythmic numbers. So an empty space is needed for presentation activity.

Students are going to work in groups in practice and evaluation part.

Phase 1

Saying “All of you is going to walk when I clap my hands once and when it becomes twice all of you is going to stop where you are and observing the students walking and stopping in the classroom when I clap my hands twice, I mean when you stop, say the numbers of the letters of the alphabet in your names and surnames to nearest student  and walk again with my new command (sign)

Phase 2

Saying “walk through different directions, stop with my stop command and write the imaginary numbers forward five by five, ten by ten to the ground, to the board, the ceiling of the classroom, the Windows using your finger, hands, elbows, heads…

Phase 3

Saying to the students STANDING up like a circle wanting to come in the middle of the circle from a volunteer student. Saying a letter to the student in the circle wanting from the student in the circle to say the name of a vegetable, a fruit, food, drinks… Starting with this letter and at the same time wanting from the students out of the circle to count back two by two, four by four in loo. Having the student in the circle take out when she/ he can’t say anything or say the repeated Word and continuing the game with the rest of the students.

Phase 4

Think of moments in your life that you should definitely count. Maybe there are some important things about counting numbers in your memories. Maybe you can dream something now. Make groups of equal numbers among you. Share what you think in these groups. Then decide how to act / dramatize it. I want a short drama from each group.

Phase 5

Result / Evaluation Activity:

Class discussion on groups work. Rhythmic counting forward and backword within 100. Listening to student views about rhythmic counting.
