Whole Numbers – Ordering and writing of Numbers from 31 To 40. Reverse Counting of Numbers.

1️⃣ First, let’s look at the numbers from 31 to 40:

31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40

2️⃣ Now, let’s learn how to order them from smallest to largest. Can you tell me which number is the smallest among these?

👦 Student: 31 is the smallest!

3️⃣ Great job! Now, which number is the largest?

👦 Student: 40 is the largest!

4️⃣ Excellent! Now, let’s practice counting backward from 40 to 31. Can you do it?

👦 Student: Sure! 40, 39, 38, 37, 36, 35, 34, 33, 32, 31.

5️⃣ Fantastic! You’ve got it! Remember, when you order numbers, the smallest comes first, and the largest comes last. Keep practicing, and you’ll become a math expert! 🌟

Read number 31 to 36 and read the inverse 

To read the numbers 31 through 36 backwards, we can list them in the following order:

36, 35, 34, 33, 32, 31

So, the numbers 31 through 36, read backwards, are 36, 35, 34, 33, 32, 31

To read the numbers 31 through 36 backwards, we can simply list them in reverse order, starting with the highest number and ending with the lowest number. In this case, the numbers 31 through 36, read backwards, are 36, 35, 34, 33, 32, 31. Reading numbers backwards is a simple process that involves rearranging the order of the numbers from high to low or low to high. This can be useful in a variety of contexts, such as when counting down from a high number or when trying to remember a sequence of numbers in a particular order.

1️⃣ First, let’s look at all the numbers from 1 to 40:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40

2️⃣ Now, let’s learn how to order them from the smallest to the largest. Can you tell me which number is the smallest among these?

👦 Student: 1 is the smallest!

3️⃣ Well done! Now, which number is the largest?

👦 Student: 40 is the largest!

4️⃣ Great job! Now, let’s practice counting backward from 40 to 1. Can you do it?

👦 Student: Of course! 40, 39, 38, 37, 36, 35, 34, 33, 32, 31, 30, 29, 28, 27, 26, 25, 24, 23, 22, 21, 20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

5️⃣ Excellent! You’ve mastered ordering and counting numbers from 1 to 40 and even counting backward! Keep practicing, and you’ll become a math superstar! 🌟

Trace and write number 1 and 30

To trace and write any number , you can follow these steps:

1. Begin by drawing a straight horizontal line across the top of your page.
2. Draw a vertical line straight down from the center of the horizontal line.
3. Write the numeral “3” above the top horizontal line and to the left of the vertical line. Write the numeral “4” below the bottom horizontal line and to the right of the vertical line.

It’s important to take your time and pay attention to the correct formation of each numeral as you trace and write them. You may want to practice writing the numbers a few times before you are confident in your ability to write them neatly and accurately.

Step 2.

He introduces the new topic.

Step 3:

The class teacher allows the pupils to give their own examples and he corrects them when the needs arise.

Teacher’s Activities (15 minutes):

1. Start with a brief recap of numbers 1 to 30 to ensure students remember the basics.
2. Display number cards from 31 to 40 on the board.
3. Explain that we’ll be ordering these numbers from smallest to largest.
4. Ask students to identify the smallest and largest numbers in this range (interactive discussion).
5. Show a visual aid (e.g., number line or chart) to help visualize the order.
6. Work together to arrange the numbers in order on the board.
7. Discuss why it’s essential to know how to order numbers.

Learners’ Activities (15 minutes):

1. Distribute number cards (31 to 40) to students.
2. Ask students to work in pairs to order the numbers and write them in their notebooks.
3. Encourage peer learning and teamwork.
4. Walk around to provide assistance and ensure everyone participates.

Assessment (5 minutes):

• To assess understanding, call on individual students to:
  • Identify the smallest number between 31 and 40.
  • Identify the largest number between 31 and 40.
  • Count backward from 40 to 31.
• Provide praise and feedback to encourage participation.

Conclusion

The class teacher wraps up or concludes the lesson by giving out short notes to summarize the topic that he or she has just taught.

The class teacher also goes round to make sure that the notes are well copied or well written by the pupils.

He or she does the necessary corrections when and where the needs arise.

Homework:

• Practice writing numbers from 31 to 40.
• Count backward from 40 to 31.

This detailed lesson plan ensures that students not only learn the content but also actively engage in the process. It includes a variety of teaching strategies to cater to different learning styles and abilities
