Lesson Plan: Halves Mathematics • First Year of Primary School
This lesson plan includes the objectives, prerequisites, and exclusions of the lesson teaching students how to divide shapes into two equal parts, name each part as a half, and know how many halves make a whole.
Objectives
Students will be able to
- divide circles and rectangles into two equal parts, identifying them each as a half,
- identify how many halves make a whole,
- understand that decomposing circles and rectangles into halves makes smaller shares.
Prerequisites
Students should already be familiar with
- dividing 2D shapes into equal parts.
Exclusions
Students will not cover
- fraction notation.
