Big Idea: Understand multiplying by 2’s

I can… I can multiply one digit numbers by multiples of two.

Launch: Introduce problem (10 minutes)

- Bring students to the floor to read Minnie’s Diner: A multiplying Menu. Today we are

going to be reading a book called Minnie’s Diner. Show the book and let the students

predict what the book will be about. When you see the front cover, what do you think

the book is going to be about? For the think, pair, share ask the students what they think

the book will be about, group them up and have them discuss with each other what they

think it will be about. Each group thought of something different, let’s get started to

find out what happens.

- Today, I want you to listen and try to figure out what we will be doing today with

our worksheet. Read the story aloud to class.

- Now we will try to test our knowledge since we have read the whole book. Give each

child a worksheet, each of them needs to fill out their own, but they can work together to

get the answers. Ask the students for a whole group response. Why are we using this

worksheet and this book? To learn math!

- Discuss again what the big idea was, we are trying to help Minnie figure out how

much food to give to each person. Give children the choice to use manipulatives to

work on the worksheet. You can now go back to your tables and begin working with

your group to complete the worksheet. Raise your hand if you need help, go ahead

and get started!

- Group goal: Students can work together to get the answers.

- Individual accountability: Each student needs to fill out their own worksheet.

- Students go back to their tables and begin working on their worksheets.

- Have the students discuss what their strategies are in their group.

- Have the children try to think of different ways they can solve their division problems

and then let them try another students strategy.

- Clarifying: What happens when someone else comes to Minnie’s? What is Minnie trying

to multiply? Why are we using multiplication instead of addition? What is the problem

asking?

- Eliciting: What strategy did you use to solve this problem? Did you try a different

strategy first? Can you show me how you got the answer? Tell me more about your

answer.

- Ask a few different students who have different strategies to put their strategies up on the

board.

- Extending: Can you solve this using another strategy? Can you use different numbers?

How is this strategy similar/different to your partners? Can you use this problem in real

life?

- Assessment:

o Look for correct answers on worksheets and strategies used to put on the board

 Manipulatives

 Multiplication

 Derived facts

 Repeated addition

Summarize: Teacher guided discussion (10 minutes)

- Bring the students back to the floor. I saw lots of good strategies being used and you

all worked really well together today, I am very proud of you so far. We are going to

look at the worksheet you all just completed. As you can see, we have a few

strategies up on the board already. What do you guys see? Please raise your hand. I

see one strategy using manipulatives. I see one strategy using lots of addition. This

strategy was the same as mine, they drew out the food items!

- Have students discuss other student’s strategies in front of the class to see if they can

understand other student’s way of thinking. Who wants to explain this strategy? What

do you see? They solved it by doubling the order and counting all of the food items

separately. How was their strategy similar or different to yours? My strategy was

similar because I doubled each food item and then counted each drawing to find the

correct answer. Continue the same process for each strategy on the board.

- Students will now think, pair, share with a partner on a brand new problem while in the

group discussion for extra understanding. One group will put their strategy on the board

for another group to explain their thought process to the whole group.

- When they are finished use this strategy to ask the class how this strategy is similar or

different to the other strategies we used before with the book Minnie’s Diner: A

Multiplying Menu.

- What do you think our big idea was today? Call on a student without their hand raised.

We learned how to multiply by two. Our big idea today was to understand multiplying

by 2’s. What do you think our “I CAN” statement was for this lesson? Call on a

student without their hand raised. Our “I CAN” statement might have been I can double
Lesson Plans Isabella Edminster

to find an answer. Our “I CAN” statement today was I can multiply one digit

numbers by multiples of two. What was our big idea today again? Whole group

response. Our big idea today was to understand multiplying by 2’s.

- So, what did we learn today? We learned how to multiply one digit numbers by two.

What strategies did we use? We used manipulatives, repeated addition, multiplication,

and facts we know.

Evaluation: Individual Assignment

- Give students an exit ticket with different numbers. For students who were struggling, they will

receive a worksheet with smaller numbers. For students that worked very efficiently and knew

how to explain multiple strategies without struggle, they will receive bigger numbers on their

worksheet.

-If students work with manipulatives, let them know that they can use anything to help them

solve their problems.

Accommodations:

- Extension: do 64 of each food item, use strategies without manipulatives, start to use

number sentences (writing them)
