# Session 2: Number concept- 2
**Session Title** **Number concepts**
Objective 1. Understand the concepts of whole numbers, natural numbers, even numbers, and odd numbers. 2. Identify and classify numbers into different types. 3. Apply simple methods to recognize and differentiate number types through engaging activities.
Concepts Number types help categorize numbers based on their properties: 1. Natural Numbers: Counting numbers starting from 1 (1, 2, 3...) 2. Whole Numbers: Natural numbers including 0 (0, 1, 2, 3...) 3. Even Numbers: Numbers divisible by 2 (0, 2, 4...) 4. Odd Numbers: Numbers not divisible by 2 (1, 3, 5…)
Materials Required 1. Board & Chalk, 2. Number flashcards 3. Number line 4. Colored markers 5. Chart paper 6. Bingo card for each students
Methodology Activity-based Learning: Games, sorting, and movement. Experiential Learning: Applying number types to daily life scenarios.
Session Duration 90 minutes
### Introduction Activity (10 minutes): ##### Number sorting challenge Place number flashcards (1–50) in a basket. Students pick one card at a time and run to the correct labelled section (Natural, Whole, Even, or Odd) on the classroom walls. The Teacher checks their placement and facilitates a brief discussion to reinforce understanding. ### Main Activity (70 minutes): ##### Number Grid Hope (20 minutes) 1. Draw a large 1–100 number grid on the floor. 2. Call out number properties (e.g., "Step on an even number!" or "Find a number that is whole but not natural!") 3. Students respond by hopping on the correct numbers. 4. Discuss each response and reinforce definitions. ##### Number Bingo (25 minutes) 1. Prepare Bingo cards with a mix of number types. 2. Call out clues like "An odd number under 20" or "A natural number that’s also even." 3. Students mark the correct numbers on their cards. 4. The first to complete a row shouts "Bingo!" and explains their answers.
