Lesson Instruction
Learning Activity 1:
After the teacher asks the students to consider what ways we can solve a
multiplication equation (bar model, equation, complete sentence, and
array), the students will be instructed to demonstrate two of these ways
with the factors 4 and 6 using their dry-erase boards. The teacher will
review dry-erase boards as they are held up (facing the front of the class)
for correctness and way of thinking.
The teacher will model how to recognize that the factors and product in
an equation actually represent items/things. The teacher will write 5 x
number of pencils Mary has = number of pencils Mary needs. The
equation is 5 x 4 = 20, or 20 is 5 times as many as 4.
Graphic Organizer
The teacher will present a word problem in which a product is given along
with one factor, and a question asking students to find the missing factor:
Johnny has 5 times as many appleseeds as June.
Johnny has 35 appleseeds. How many appleseeds does Johnny
have?
The teacher will ask, How can we write this equation? [5 x A = 35, or
The teacher will then lead students through another example, and then
allow students to work in groups to solve two equations with a missing
factor and a given product:
Sandra is moving. The large box can hold 8 times as
many cups as the small box. The large box can hold 24 cups.
How many cups can the small box hold?
6 times as many butterflies in the garden have orange
wings than red wings. 24 butterflies have orange wings. How
many butterflies have red wings?
Tori cooked all day. For dinner, she used 9 times as many
eggs as she did for breakfast. Tori used 54 eggs while cooking
dinner. How many eggs did she use while cooking breakfast?
The teacher will then lead students through working pages 56 and 57 in
the Ready Mathematics Instruction textbook, except numbers 16 and 17
which students will work on in groups. The teacher will review these two
answers after students have a chance to review together.
Assignment
Learning Activity 3:
Students will work in pairs to complete a Tell, Tell, Ask, Solve model for
word problems with missing factors:
Beth reads 4 times as many pages per night as Holly.
Beth reads 16 pages per night. How many pages does Holly read
each night?
The pond by Tonyas house has 8 times as many frogs in
it as the pond by her grandmothers house. The pond by Tonyas
house has 48 frogs in it. How many frogs are in the pond by her
grandmothers house?
Jake purchased 64 candles. Jordan purchased 8 times
as many candles as Maggie. How many candles did Maggie
purchase?
Assessment Prompt for LA 3:
Students will complete pages 58 & 60 in Practice & Problem Solving
book independently.
