Key vocabulary with definitions (and pictures if appropriate):

Arrays

glossary definition

image

Items (such as objects, numbers, etc.) arranged in rows

and columns.

Students Prior Knowledge:

Students already have practiced how to multiplication.
Possible Problems :
- Students may cause noise and mess when they work in groups.
Solutions for the Possible Problems:
-Teacher will prepare rewards for them if they followed the rules.
Misconceptions:

Students may not be able to differentiate between the question of write the number of arrays
and the question of representation the equation by drawing the because of their poor reading
skills.
Solutions for Misconceptions:

Teacher will ask them to draw a tick above the word of "write equation" and a circle above
the word "drawing".

Lesson Schedule
Targeted teacher questions to promote HOTS
Student communication and use of math language
Engage (warm up, review prior knowledge):
Teacher will explain the management tool. She will give them some rules they
have to follow during the group work.
Teacher will start with review the multiplication table through the dominoes
game.

Core (introduce and practice new concepts & procedures):
1. Teacher will move to get into the core part. After writing the equation
on the board, the teacher will tell them that these rows and columns
with these objects are called "Array" and it helps us to find the total
number of object easily using addition and multiplication.
2. Teacher will explain for the students three example of how they can
use addition and multiplication to solve the the question easily.

3. Finally, teacher will tell student that we have learned how arrays look
like when we have real items and pictures. Teacher will give them
individual work to check their understanding and she will move around
to mark their answers.

Close (wrap up, discussion, brief review activity or assessment):

1. Teacher will explain the activity for students. She will give the
instructions of what they have to do. She will choese 4 students to play
a puzzle.
2. To end the class, Teacher will ask students to open their math book
then, each one will work on it individually. She will move around to
mark their answers.
