Phase 1: Starterpreparing the brain for learning Review learners understanding in the previous lesson using questions and answers Engage learners to play games and sing songs to begin the lesson. Tuesday Let learners solve this Using only addition, how can you use eight eights to get the number 1000? Answer: 888+88+8+8+8 Wednesday Draw a 6 by 6 multiplication chart and use it as a game board to play the 3-in-a-line game with a pair of dice or playing cards.
Players take turns in throwing a one dice and mark (or cover) a number that can be divided by the results (i.e. a quotient). The winner is the one who obtains three numbers in a line.
Have learners to solve the following within a given duration. Complete with “>”, “<” and “=” Teacher calls out numbers from 1 to 20
Have learners to write number patterns in the air. Randomly call learners to write a said number on the board 45 67 475 457 17 71 45-10 70-9 | Phase 2: Mainnew learning including assessment Apply the distributive property to determine a given product involving multiplying factors that can be written in the expanded form E.g., 6×18 = (6×10) + (6×8) = 60+48 = 108.
Guide learners to apply the distributive property to determine a given product involving multiplying factors that are close to multiples of 10 e.g., 29×7 = (30×7) – (1×7) = 203. Explain the property for determining the answer when multiplying numbers by 1 and 0 Multiplication of whole numbers using the “expand and box” method (partial decomposition method). lead learners to multiply a 3-digit number by a 1-digit number as shown below, For example 448 × 2 =? X 400 40 8 2 800 80 16
448 × 2 = (400 × 2) + (40 × 2) + (8 × 2) = 800 + 80 + 16 = 800 + 80 + (10 + 6) = 800 + 90 + 6 = 896 Assessment: Have leaners to practice with more examples Multiplication of whole numbers using the Column or vertical method; i.e. 25×32
Multiplication of whole numbers using the Distributive property; i.e. 25×32
Have leaners to practice with more examples Multiplication of whole numbers using the lattice method. have learners draw a 2 by 3 lattice for solving 345 × 27; and 3 by 3 and 3 by 3 lattice for solving 382 × 856.
Have leaners to practice with more examples
For this activity, learners use bottle tops, bundles of sticks and exercise books to model the stated operation concretely and record matching number sentences and solutions. | Phase 3plenary / reflections Give learners task to complete whiles you go round to guide those who don’t understand.
