DO FIRST:

The students will come into the classroom and turn in the homework from last
night. On the white board, there will be a 3-word problems that the students
will have to solve. The word problems will be simple multiplication and division
problems and include some of the student's names.

I will give the students about 5 minutes to complete the problems, and if they
have any problems, they can ask for help from a classmate or myself.

After the time is up, I will go over the problems and answers with the
students. At that time, I will also explain to them that today we will be
working on doing word problems.

I will select a few students to had out fake paper money. I had previously
printed out and lamented to use during the lesson. I will also ask the students
to take at their notebooks.
• To start the lesson I will play a video by Khan Academy
about writing equations that are in word problems.
• After watching the video, I’ll explain how to write an
equation step by step to the students. Explain to the
students that's it's a three-step process on how to solve
3. the word problems. I will also pass out an equation that

• Those steps are to define a variable, constant, and total
MINI-LESSON amount, write the equation, and solve for the answer.
• I will use a part of a PowerPoint to also explain more on
how to solve and write the equations. Slides 20-22
• To help students with kinesthetic learning styles I will
use a bean bag to toss the student if they have a
question. I will first ask if anyone has a question.

GUIDED PRACTICE
Lucy started a new job at the grocery store. She currently makes $9 per hour.
She wants to know how many hours she must work to get paid $180. Write the
equation and solve.
1. Find the variables, constant, and total amount.
x= how many hour she work she gets paid $9 per hour the total is $180
2. Write the equation. 9x=180
3. Solve 9x=180
/9 /9
x=20
Lucy must work 20 hours to make $180.

GUIDED PRACTICE
Max wants to buy new shoes. He budgets himself to spending only $80. The online
store has a shipping price of $7 per purchase . All the shoes on the website cost
$21. How many pairs of shoes can Max buy without going over his budget? Write
the equation and solve.
1. Find the variables, constant, and total amount. x=how many shoes Max can buy
the shoes are $21 each the $7 shipping price $80 is the total
2. Write the equation. 21x+7=80
3. Solve. 21x+7=80 Round x to the lower amount because he wants

After the guided practice I will


hand out a worksheet for the
students to do. The worksheet will
review what we did in the guided
practice. The students will still be
able to use the paper money from
the guided practice to help them
with the problems. I continue using
the bean bag method to answer
any of the student's questions. I
will also separate the students in
groups of 5 to help each other
after trying to work by themselves.

EXIT SLIP
• Once the students are all done with the
worksheet, we will do a class review over all
the problems. I would have the students pass
the assignment to the student in front of them
to be graded. After the grading is done, the
students will receive their original worksheet
back knowing which are wrong and which are
correct answers. Then we'll all go through
each problem step-by-step individually. To help
each student understand what they did wrong.

1.In the 7th grade, students need to be able to do one and two step word problems. These were problems
usually include an algebraic expression where you must find a total amount. Student would previously need
to know how to do expressions. Students will also need to know how to write expressions from word
problems and to solve them.

2. I think students will enjoy lessons more when you incorporate them into the lessons. I can do this by
using the student's names in word problems. I can also incorporate them by using the bean bag method

answering questions. This will keep the students engaged into what each person is asking. Also using the
money will show students are engaged and focused on the assignment.

REFLECTION
3. Some of the strengths in this lesson plan is that you can use some of the students to engage them. I also
like the bean bag method because it focuses on one single at a time. Another strength is that using
worksheets I can keep track on how the students are doing in the classroom if they're focused or not. I can
also see if the students need more help on the lesson. I also like the use of paper money because students
can visualize how much money they have. I think peer discussion is also important because students can
learn from each other. In weakness in this lesson plan is that I rely on videos to teach for me. Also it's hard
to find worksheets that set the Common Core needs.

4. I practice my ITASC standards by incorporating peer-review and pure discussions in the lesson plan. This
is so that students can learn from each other as well as having social interactions. Word problems also
solve issues in different ways. And you can look at word problems in different perspective by creating your
own instead of using textbooks.
