# of Students: 23 Grade Level: 5th

Central Focus
Evaluate Numerical Expressions

Lesson Topic
Order of Operations

New York Common

Core/Next Gen. Stand. 5.OA.1Apply the order of operations to evaluate numerical expressions.

Learning Objective SWBAT: Understand in what order operations must be evaluated to

find the solution by using the strategy PEMDAS (Parentheses,
Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition and Subtraction).

Students already know:

What a numerical expression is
Prior Knowledge* How to solve one a numerical expression.
The different properties
Exponents

Academic Language* Evaluate: Finding the value of a numerical expression with more than
one type of operation
Order of Operations: The order of operations tells you in what order
you should evaluate an expression.

Plan of Action

Introduce the lesson with a Do Now/Hook—

Use the problem: 6 x 12 - (84 - 10) + 2 x 30 ÷ 5

Ask students how they might go about solving the problem.

Mini-lesson/ Launch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdgcItiemoY (Order of
(10 – 15 minutes) Operations Rap) explaining the right way to do the order of operations.

As a class we will then revisit the Do Now problem and go through the
steps together answering any questions that students have may have.
Provide students with the “Cheat Code” Please Excuse My Dear Aunt
Sally when they are asked to evaluate numerical expressions.

Work Time Students will have the opportunity to complete pages 67-70 in their Go
(30 – 40 minutes) Math workbook
 The teacher will put a timer on for 20 mins, and after the allotted time,
the teacher will review the pages that the students were asked to
complete.
Check for understanding from students by getting a thumbs up if they
Share and Conclude
understand, a thumb to the side if they are iffy and a thumbs down if
(5 – 10 minutes)
they completely don’t understand. I will take a mental note and for the
next lesson see where they are struggling.
Accessibilities for Diverse Learners
Pertinent IEP Goals
and/or Struggling Leaners- Allow for students that are struggling to utilize the
Emergent Bilingual working space in the back to work with the teacher.
Learners
Struggling Learners Enrichment Learners- Allow for students who are excelling with the
and/or order of operations to help other students.
Enrichment
Assessment
Students will complete an Exit Ticket with a problem like the Do Now
to check for understanding. The teacher is then able to see who
understands order of operations.
Formative Assessment
Use the problem: 40 + 1 - 5 x 7 + 6 ÷ (3 x 2)
