A little Bit about
Me…
● My name is Mr. Paul Le. You guys
can call me Mr. Le.
● I teach third grade mathematics.
● I like to have fun while I’m
learning.
● Spongebob is my favorite
character.
Student Materials

● Pencils
● Paper
● Folder
● Of course, your BRAINS
Book We Will Be Using
Objective

The standard objectives of today's class are to: solve problems involving multiplication and division of whole numbers, learning the

relationship between multiplication and division, and solve more problems involving all four operations.
Some Questions You Guys Might Have

Question 1: What would I use this for?- You use this in a lot of things you do. For example, let’s say I make 10 dollars an hour. I work

for five hours. I would not want my employer to give me less that what I am owed.

Question 2: Why can’t I just use addition instead of multiplication?- At a certain point, the numbers get too big to use in addition. It is

easier to use multiplication.

Procedure

I will greet the students as they come through the door. I will have them do the brainwork that I have made. I will go over the answers of

the brainwork. Next is to review key vocabulary terms. Then, I will go over a page in the book that introduces the concepts (lesson).

Next is doing classwork with them. Then, I will have them do some problems by themselves (independent practice). Next, I will have

them take a non-graded quiz so I can test their knowledge. We will review the answers after they are finished. Finally, I will have them

do a special closing activity as well as giving them their homework.

Brainwork

What do you think multiplication is?

What do you think division is?

The first person who gets the answer right on each question will receive candy.
Important Vocabulary

Inverse Operations- opposite operations where one reverses the effect of the other (Division is the inverse operation of multiplication)

Product- result of two or more numbers multiplied together

Quotient- the numbers we obtain when we divide one number by another

Lesson

Go to chapter five in your textbook. Did you know that there are some cool tricks to do

multiplication? The examples below are to multiply by sets of two or three​​. For sets of

two, all you have to do is double the number! It is the same doubles from addition. For

example, 5x2=10 because 5+5=10! For threes, the rule is to double the number and then

add one more of that same number! I know this might seem difficult at first, but it is easier

once you see how it is done! For example, 6x3=18 because 6+6=12 (double the 6) and

12+6=18 (add one more 6). Let's look at other multiplication examples. I want you guys to

draw a picture of 5 groups of 6 on your paper. These could be whatever objects you would

like them to be. Just make 5 groups of 6. If you don’t understand how to do this, just think

of 5+5+5+5+5+5 or 6+6+6+6+6. You should get 30. The last example is 8x8. I’ll wait a

few minutes. Make sure to use the same process as the previous problem. The answer

should be 64! Are there any thoughts or questions?

Lesson continued…

Division is a whole another concept. Let’s take a box of cookies for example.

How many cookies with 5 cookies in each box can be made with 25 cookies?

You should be asking yourself how many 5’s are in 25. Five times what number

is 25? How much is 25 divided by 5? The answer is 5. Let’s do another

example. What is 72 divided by 12. In other words, how many times can 12

go/multiply to make 72? The answer should be 6. The last example is a three

digit number. What is 100/10? Use the same process that you used for the first

two. The answer should be 10. Another trick is that you can use multiplication

to figure out division. For example, 7x7=49. If you get a problem that asks what

49/7 is, you should know it is 7. Are there any thoughts or questions?

Independent Practice
Assessment/quiz

Now it is time for an assessment/quiz! This won’t be for a grade, it is just for me to check your understanding.

What is the product of 9x8?

What is the quotient of 66/11?

What is the product of 5x7?

What is the quotient of 84/7?

What is the relationship between multiplication and division?

Homework
Closing Activities/Summary

Okay class, great job today! Remember to do your homework and to

not overstress about this! If you do it enough, I am sure you will

succeed! Your ticket out the door is to answer a rapid fire

multiplication or division question. I will give you candy when you

get it right!
