5. SECTION A: EMERGENT MATHEMATICS

ACTIVITY 1 - PLAN AND DESIGN RESOURCES FOR GRADE R

Plan and design resources suitable for Grade R for ONE of the following Shape and Space activities:

1. An obstacle course
2. A treasure hunt
3. An activity about 2D shapes
4. An activity about 3D shapes


Grade: R Topic: An activity about 2D

Ask your mentor teacher about the possible teaching and learning resources that can be
used to teach the topic you selected and list them here.

 Pattern blocks introduce Grade R learners to mathematical concepts like
symmetry, sorting, counting, patterns, tessellation and so much more.
These blocks also introduce them to 2D shapes.
 2D shapes can be created by cutting paper of different textures or
other materials(buttons, popcorn seeds) and creating a shape collage.
 Matchsticks or popsicle sticks can also be used to create 2D shapes. They
also introduce the learner to sorting, counting, symmetry and many more.


From your list above, select the teaching and learning resources that you can use to
introduce your lesson and explain how you will design them. Take pictures of the resources
and paste them in the space below

 Pop Sticks:
Pop sticks in various colours will be used to create various 2D shapes.
Learners can use a different colour for each shape which will encourage sorting
and counting (learners can count how many sticks of each colour they have. They
can also count the number of corners the shapes they make has)
