Mathematics Lesson Plan: Division

This 3rd grade mathematics lesson plan focuses on revision of multiplication and division concepts. The lesson will begin with a tables game to engage students. Students will then use manipulatives like unifix cubes to form arrays and practice multiplication and division facts up to 100. They will draw arrays on whiteboards and solve word problems involving division. An independent written task will assess understanding of division statements and application of the commutative property. The lesson concludes with students playing multiplying or loop card games in groups.

Mathematics Lesson Plan: Division

Strand: Number

Strand Unit: Operations- Multiplication and Division

Lesson: Revision of Multiplication and Division I have already covered with class

Class: 3rd

Date: 12/03/2020

Time: 9:00

Materials/equipment required: textbook, unifix cubes, deck of cards, loop card


game

Curriculum Objective(s):
The child should be enabled to:
1. Explore, understand and apply the zero, commutative and distributive
properties of multiplication and division
2. Recall multiplication and division facts within 100.

Specific Objectives for this Lesson:


The child should be enabled to:
1. Explore, understand and apply the commutative property of division in
relation to multiples of 3 up to 30
2. Revise and/or recall multiplication and division facts within 100

Introduction:

Going to introduce the lesson by playing the tables game with the class so they are in

the correct frame of mind to be dealing with multiplication and division.


Step 1 Concrete (Make it): Using Arrays
Having already taught multiplication and division facts up to 100, I will reinforce this
by getting the class to use unifix cubes to form multiples up to 100 and call out
different division sums for them to answer with using their own unifix cubes.

Step 2 Pictorial/Representation (Draw it):


Ask the pupils to use their whiteboards. This will help them to draw all possible
arrangements that can be made using arrays for the numbers on the board. For
example, put up 36 counters on the main whiteboard
Ask for how to make equal amounts for that group i.e. common multiples and ask for
how many groups of __ fit in the 36.
Get them to use their whiteboards to divide into prime numbers so that there must
be a remainder.
Do the same task using multiplication by getting them to draw out 5 bundles of 7 and
asking how many people can have one item.
Step 3 Abstract (Write it): Independent Written Task

(a) Present each individual student with work from their textbooks containing a
variety of division sums. Ask children to write the statement represented by
the sums in the book.
(b) Get the children to demonstrate their knowledge of division on the board
using different sums.
(c) Assess the children’s ability to deal with these exercises, if they find it too
easy try to move through the chapter faster with more challenging problems

Whilst students are engaging with the task circulate and assess whether students
understand the commutative property of multiplication. When students have
completed the task ask them to turn to their partner and compare their responses.

Conclusion: Deck of Cards Multiplying Game/ Loop Game

Get the children into groups of three and get two people to put cards against their heads.

Multiply the cards by each other and make them work out their own card number.

Or

Play Loop Card Game with the class.
