Partial-Products Algorithm: Buying at the Stock-Up Sale

Name: Haven Bassett Date and Time: April 3rd 11:10 11:50 Smith Elementary, 3rd, Christensen
Topic: Partial-Products Algorithm Purpose: Guide students as they multiply using mental math and the partial-products algorithm Students and Context: Introduced partial-products algorithm in the previous lesson Vocabulary: Partial-products algorithm Standards or GLCEs:
N.MR.03.15 N.FL.03.13 SWABT: Use the partial-products algorithm and multiplication facts to multiply 1-digit numbers by multi-digit numbers. Make reasonable estimates using mental math.

Instructional Objectives /Assessments

Student Assessment: Student will participate in whole class discussion as well as use the partialproducts algorithm to solve problem #2 on page 217, working in pairs. Student will use estimation to solve the math message and participate as we discuss strategies as a whole class. Teacher Assessment: Teacher will look for participation from a range of students and use of the partialproducts algorithm to solve problem #2 on page 217. Teacher will look for participation from a range of students and walk around and monitor student work on whiteboards.

Duration: 40 minutes Materials: Keynote, Math Journals, Whiteboards, and Markers Teaching Sequence: Time/Task
2 minutes Transition

Instructional Moves

Considerations/Keynote Slides

Transition: Time to get your math journal and go to your math spots. One person from your table should collect whiteboards and markers for your group.

10 minutes Introduction Discussion

Use your whiteboards to solve the math message: Gift-wrapping paper costs $2.35 per roll. Estimate whether $10 is enough to buy 4 rolls of gift-wrapping paper. How did you solve this problem? What did you do? Why did you do that? Remember an efficient estimation strategy requires simple mental math and gives an answer that is reasonably close to the exact answer. Ok so lets check our estimation; work in your table groups to find the exact cost using your whiteboards. How did you solve this problem? What did you do? Why did you do that? Did anyone use a different strategy to solve this problem?

15 minutes Journal Page 217

Open your math journals to page 217. Who would like to read problem #1 aloud for us? What do you think we should do first to solve this problem? Why? What should we do next? Ok work with your math partners to solve problem #2. What did you do to solve this problem? Why did you do that? Did anyone do it a different way?

Supplement with SRB information that a bar of soap costs $0.65 each and a toothbrush costs $1.13 each.

13 minutes Math Boxes

Now turn to page 218 and complete the math boxes. If you finish early, finish the math boxes on page 216 from yesterday. Its time for lunch. When I say go put your math journals back in your desk, elect one person to take care of your tables whiteboards and makers, wash your hands and lineup for lunch.
