Lesson Title: Digging into Multiplication and Division Grade: 5 Date: April 16 and 17
Subject/Strand: Mathematics / Number Sense and Numeration Unit: Multiplication and Division Location: Portable 808
Times: 11:30 – 12:20 *This lesson will be extended over 2 period
Lesson Plan Description (What are you teaching? How does it fit into the context of the unit? What are the big ideas/essential/enduring understandings?)
****This lesson is being resubmitted in whole as students required longer to review single digit multiplication than expected. It has
been added that this lesson will cover a two day period after this previous lesson experience.
This is the beginning of a new unit for students. It continues to explore Number Sense and Numeration, but digs deeper into
Multiplication and Division. Student have been exposed to beginning Multiplication and Division in their daily 180 days of math board
work but this will be the first formal lesson on the topic. Exploring Multiplication will give students a foundation for division which will
be the next topic in their number sense unit.
STEP 1 : CURRICULUM CONNECTIONS
Ontario Curricular Overall Expectations (numbers from documents and details)
Number Sense and Numeration
solve problems involving the multiplication and division of multi-digit whole numbers, and involving the addition and subtraction of
decimal numbers to hundredths, using a variety of strategies
Ontario Curricular Specific Expectations and Achievement Chart Categories
(Numbers from documents and details) selected & listed from the Ont. Curriculum, (refined when necessary): realistic number of expectations (1 or 2), connect to
assessment. Indicate category in brackets beside specific expectation :Knowledge and Understanding( K ) Thinking (T); Communication (C); Application(A)
Number Sense and Numeration
- multiply two-digit whole numbers by two-digit whole numbers, using estimation, student-generated algorithms, and standard
algorithms (A and C)
Learning Goals Discuss with students: What will I be learning today? (Clearly identify what students are expected to know and be able to do, in language that
students can readily understand.)
Today we are learning to
- multiply one and two digit numbers using a variety of strategies
STEP 2: ASSESSMENT
Purpose of the lesson (indicate purpose for this lesson/assessment) [ X ] FOR [ ] AS [ ] OF
Success Criteria Discuss with students: How will I know I have learned what I need to learn? (Clearly identify the criteria to assess student’s learning: evidence of
learning students will provide to demonstrate their knowledge, skills and thinking, in language that students can readily understand). Indicate the Achievement Chart
criteria.
We will know we are successful when we can
- model and explain our answers (C)
- practice solving problems using a variety of strategies including lattice method and mixed arrays (A)
Assessment Mode- Written, Oral, Assessment Strategy and Task for Students- Assessment Tool - Instrument used to
Performance (Write, Say, Do) What are the students doing to show their learning? assess; Record Keeping format
Do Students will explore various methods of solving Teacher will collect individual student
multiplication problems. They will complete work to assess progress and understanding
board problems as well as work their math of multiplication strategies.
books which will be collected by teacher for
review and structuring next lesson in the unit
going forward.
STEP 3: CONSIDERATIONS FOR PLANNING
Prior Learning: Prior to this lesson, students will have
As mentioned previously, students have basic understanding of their multiplication time’s table and have been exposed to practice
questions during their daily 180 days of math practice. There are also multiplication tables posted in the classroom that students use
on a regular basis.
I.E.P. program implications: Accommodations, Modifications
There are no students on IEP for mathematics.
There is one student on an alternative IEP and does not follow the curriculum expectation. His goal for this lesson will be to sit with his
peers for social interaction
Differentiation: Content, Process, Product, Environment, Assessment
Students can work in pairs and small groups to complete the board problems.
If needed, students can use scribe to have their answers submitted to their workbooks and their worksheets.
Learning Skills/Work Habits: [ X] responsibility, [ ] organization, [ X] independent work, [ ] collaboration, [ ] initiative, [ X ] self-regulation
Vocabulary: (for word wall addition or reference and/or to develop schema for this lesson. To be addressed in lesson)

Resources and Materials /Technology Integration: List ALL items necessary for delivery of the lesson. Include any attachments of student worksheets used
and teacher support material that will support communication of instruction. Include the use of Information Technology (ICT) in your lesson plan where appropriate.

required in each section.
Minds on: Motivational Hook/engagement /Introduction (5-15 min)
Establish a positive learning environment, connect to prior learning, set the context for learning, pre-determine key questions to guide lesson.

Upon completion of the timer, students will share their response

Probes
- do we still need to line up our numbers if we are
multiplying?
- How can we prove that is the answer?
Personal Reflection - Choose at least one question from each area that best allows you reflect on this lesson. Questions should
vary over the week and specific plans.
