CCSS Math Strand:

Unit 1 operations chapter 3 lesson 4 ThreeDigits subtraction by regrouping

CCSS Standards:
According to CCSS standard, for operation lessons students generally will grasp the concept of subtraction

as taking apart and taking from. Moreover, fluently add and subtract within 100 using strategies based
on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and
subtraction.

Main Lesson Aims (Concepts, Procedures, & Processes):

Learning objectives:
At the end of the lesson the students will be able to subtract numbers that consists of three digits by
regrouping to find the differences.
PowerPoint, papers of money, place value cubes (ones, tens, hundreds), worksheets, four
colored strips.

Key vocabulary with definitions (and pictures if appropriate):

word

Minus sign



Equal sign

glossary definition

image

The symbol ( )used for showing that one number is to be

taken from another.

The symbol =
Shows that what is on the left of the sign is equal in
value or amount to what is on the right of the sign.

Subtraction
sentence

A number sentence or simply an equation used to

express subtraction.

subtract

To take a number or amount from another number or

amount or to take away a small part of something.

Difference

The result of a subtraction problem.

5 - 3 = 2

Students Prior Knowledge:

-

Students did recognize and identify in the last lesson subtract mentally, subtract by estimation, and
normal subtraction without borrowing, so they will be able to realize the new subtraction by
regrouping and borrowing to find the exact difference of subtraction sentences, as it will be feasibly
works.

Possible Problems :

Problem: The time may not be enough; the teacher must give students enough time to get the task
concept.
Solution: The teacher must set a timer, and look at the time. To do not take a long time in the pre and
post stage, or Teacher must to take another session to practice the students and take a time in post stage
as it is very important to drill the concept which is by training.

Misconceptions:
-

Problem:

Students may have misconception and errors on steps or orders of solving the subtraction

sentence.
In each group there will be small cards that show an example of solved question. As the
teacher will display several example that to let the students memorize the steps by seeing and acting out.
Solution:

Problem:

The students may face problem with the content area which is identifying how

tens when borrowed from hundreds becomes more, e.g.

number 245 after it borrowing from hundreds it
becomes 14 rather than 5.
-

the second digit which is 4 in the top

Solution:

Teacher while she is explaining will clarify that by giving example, asking and let the
students act out the operation and shows them how digit comes like that after borrowing.

Lesson Schedule
Targeted teacher questions to promote HOTS
Student communication and use of math language
Engage (warm up, review prior knowledge):

T will greet the students and then display the classroom rules which are
asked from students:
- Be good listener.
- Raise your hand up before you give an answer.
- Respect your classmates.
- Do not shouting.

T & S interaction

Teacher: will
give the rules.
And then write
some
examples, then
she will open
the PP.

When you want to go bathroom you have to turn over the hanged
paper on the door and go quietly, then after your comeback return
over that paper.
Each group will have a tree on a paper and the group that done the
requirement firstly will get 3 stickers of birds on their tree, and the
second group will get two birds, and for the third will get one bird,
then the last group will get nothing. The winner group will get gifts at
the end. Moreover, it will be motivated for interactive students, and
quiet group.
When you see the teacher raise her hand that means you have to shut
your mouth and focus with her.
T will ask students to breathe deeply and then she will start to give
some examples from the last lesson which is about normal subtraction
and ask students to write their answer (individually) on their small
boards, then check on the answers quickly that to make sure students
understand the basic of subtraction, then also she will remind them on
the pp same examples.
T reminds her sts about 100-0=100, 100-100=0.
T will write the objective or she will present it in the PowerPoint.

Students: will

follow her
instructions.

Core (introduce and practice new concepts & procedures):

Through this stage the teacher will explain the new concept of
subtraction then she will apply three activities for all three levels:
First, teacher will show that one ten = 10 ones, and one hundred =
10 tens
First activity for whole class: T will start with interesting story
about one girl who would like to buy a toy and then she went to her
mother which represents the ones place to get money, but her
mother did not have that much, so she will borrow from the father
which represent the tens place to give her daughteretc.

Ask
questions
that related
to the
subtraction
steps to
solve it.

Motivate
students to
think and
explore.

The next activity: it will be about using place value cubes activity
for whole class. In this activity:

1- There will be four strips sticked on the floor as you see in this pic
hundreds

hundreds

tens

tens

ones

ones

2- T will write the question on the board 345 126=?

3- T will ask 3 students to represent the number 345 by using place
value cubes and then stand on the first line on their number place
that means student who have 300 stand on hundreds place, 40 on
tens place, and 5 units on ones place.
4- T will choose another 3 students and will ask each one to stand up
behind the first line students. Ones behind ones, tens behind tens,
and hundreds behind hundreds.

Students:

They will
respons
e to the
teacher
and
interact
with her.

5- Then t ask students about the operation that we are going to use
which is subtraction, then she will ask them about meaning of the
last line (which considers a line equal).
6- T will ask the student on the second line which is on the ones place
to take six ones from the student who stopped on ones place at the
first line, But the first student has no enough ones to give her. So
the second student will ask her to borrow 1 ten from tens.
7- Then T ask the students how many ones there are with the first
students? It will be 15 so now the second student can take from her
6 ones.
8- T will ask one student to come and write the answer under the last
line.
9- Then complete the subtraction for the other digits in same way until
get the difference (i.e. result).
10- This activity it can be repeated with more complex which means
two times to borrow in the question.

After the whole class activities are be done teacher will give
each group their activity:

Activity for High Students ability:

For high students: they will work as a group, there will be a worksheet that includes one
problem solving and they will be provided with place value cubes.
- Students will read the question
- Form the number in vertical way
- Use the place value cubes to present the numbers
- Subtract the numbers from each as they learned and they will find the difference.

1. Read the
question
2. Re write the
subtraction
sentence by
using
number and
symbols.
3. Using place
value cubes
to represent
your
numbers
then
complete
the solving
and borrow
when you
need to.

4. Find the
difference.
5. When you
finish raise

quietly.
Students: will read,
explore, draw,
represent numbers
and find the solution.

Activity Medium Students: (work in group)

Students with medium ability would have worksheet includes a
ready question and also they will use place value cubes to
represent the numbers, and then they have to solve it as they
learned.

Teacher: will
give the paper
for the
students,
explain the
instruction first
and solve the
activity with the
whole class at
the end.

Students: they
will follow
activitys
instructions,
find the
requirements
and then go to
present their
solve on the
board.

Teacher: will
give the paper
for the
students,
explain the
activity.

Students:
have to reorder

Close (wrap up, discussion, brief review activity or
assessment):

Teacher: she

teacher.

Teacher will
end the lesson
and give the

3digit-learning subtraction game will be

presented at the end of the lesson Post Stage after the core doing the
activities.
The teacher will display a
