Succession planning session

Math

• The 7-8 year old student has learned the concept of sequencing and order through the succession planning activity. They understand how to arrange items in a specific order based on criteria.
• They have grasped the concept of time and scheduling, as they had to plan and organize the activities and events in the succession planning session based on a timeline.
• The student has learned basic addition and subtraction skills, as they had to calculate and adjust the schedule accordingly, considering the availability of resources and time constraints.
• They have also learned the concept of patterns and repetition, as they had to consider repetitive tasks or activities and create a pattern for the succession plan.

After the succession planning session, it would be beneficial for the student to engage in activities that involve creating timelines for different tasks or events, such as planning a day's schedule or creating a project timeline. They can also practice mathematical sequencing through activities like sorting objects based on different criteria or arranging numbers in order. Additionally, incorporating games and puzzles that involve patterns and sequences can further enhance their understanding of these concepts.
