Date/Timeline October 15-November 29

SLO
X Motivated Lifelong Learners
X Effective Communicators
X Successful Individuals
Learning Goals/Objectives(GDOE& Common Core State Standards)

Standards:

3.OA.1 Interpret products of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 5 × 7 as the total number of
objects in 5 groups of 7 objects each.

I Can Statements

I can understand multiplication by thinking about groups of objects

Proficiency Scale for Collaborative Discussion

Score 4.0 More Complex Learning Goal – The student will be able to use multiplication strategies to
solve a word problem. The student collaborative conversations with diverse partners about
grade-appropriate topics and text.
Score 3.0 TARGET LEARNING GOAL – The student will be able to understand multiplication by
thinking about groups of objects. They will be able to understand how arrays and equal groups
work.
Score 2.0 Simpler Learning goal - The student will be able to identify a group of equal shares. The
student will be able to write a number sentence of equal groups.

Score 1.0 With help, Partial success at score 2.0 content but not at score 3.0 content.

Instructional Strategies/Lesson Activity

Whole Class: Direct Math Instruction, Collaborative Discussion (Reinforcing effort and
providing recognition), and Cooperative Learning
Focused Learning: Multiplication Strategies
1. Anticipatory Set: Mirror teaching and review. Demonstrate and reinforce identifying different factors and
using them in groups, arrays, and repeated addition sentences. Students will repeat and teach peers on key
concepts.

2. Post (As Needed): I Can statements

3. Direct Math Instructions, Math Vocabulary Words with Collaborative Discussion: On the chalkboard write
down key concepts and notes.
Students will take notes in their notebooks with practice samples.
4. Direct Math Instructions with Collaborative Discussions: Teacher will give examples on the board.
Students will work with the teacher on a few giving feedback as to how to solve the problem. Student will then
be given more practice problems to solve individually and then with peers.

5. Direct Math Instructions with Collaborative Discussion for student seat work: Teacher determines the
practice needed and will scaffold based on what the majority of the students need. Work on board and
worksheets will be based on prerequisite skills needed, on target work, and a higher-leveled problem.

7. Instruction Closure and Student Remotivation: Can anyone tell me what we learned today? Go over I
Can statements and encourage student to take home and practice.

8. Remove I CAN Statements

Instructional Strategies/Lesson Activity

Small Group: Direct Math Instruction, Math Accuracy, Cooperative Learning, with
Collaborative Discussion and Feedback

Focused RtI Learning: Improving Math Skill(s): Accuracy

Adding and subtracting with and without regrouping.
Teacher will use drills, manipulatives, small groups, and math centers to monitor progress
