Engagement
To begin the lesson, the teacher will ask the students who enjoys comic
strips and who has made a comic strip before. The teacher will also ask
who remembers the process for subtracting two digit numbers and what
strategies can be used. The students will share their responses for a few
minutes to allow students to start thinking about the different strategies.
The teacher will explain the purpose of the lesson and ask students to
get a piece of paper and a pencil out to work the practice problems.

Assessment observe students for engagement in the discussion.
Exploration
The teacher will provide three problems on the Viewboard. The students
should work the problems using different strategies. Students should
compare answers with their elbow buddy as they finish.
Two students will be called up for each problem, and each student
should work the same problem using a different strategy (for example,
one student answers with the drawing tens and ones strategy and the
other uses the break apart strategy). The students should discuss how
they got the answer throughout the method that they chose.
Explanation The teacher will explain the process of creating a comic strip and give
ideas on how to create one on subtraction strategies. The students
should select which strategy they want to create a comic strip on and
what numbers they will use. The students may discuss their
ideas with their table buddies or the teacher. Students will explore the
comic strip site.

Assessment teacher should provide input to students as they move throughout the
next steps.
