N/A
Daily Fluency Practice (~5-8 min)

I canadd numbers using the standard addition algorithm and model
problems using tape diagrams.
Standard addition algorithm sounds scary show example raise your
hand if you have seen a problem written like this better question, who can
solve this problem? This is the standard addition algorithm, you all have
been using it for years but now it has a name. So what is this called?
15 mins
9:00-9:15
Show 3,134 + 2,493 vertically. Say this problem with me.

What is this called again? (Standard addition algorithm)
What are the two parts that make up the whole? (3,134 and 2,493)
Show on a tape diagram.
Can anyone tell me what this is? Hint* look back at our I canstatement
What is the unknown here? What are we looking for? (The whole)
Show the unknown whole on the tape diagram
Where do we start when using the standard addition algorithm? (Right)
Good! Now stay with me. Go through the problem, find solution, show
solution on tape diagram
With a neighbor I want you to try this problem. (40,762 + 30,473) Be sure
to draw a tape diagram to model your problem. When you are finished I
want you to show me your answer. After I check it you may work on some
of our challenge problems until we come back together.
Check together.
Okay, now alone try 207,426 + 128,744. Make sure you draw a tape
diagram to model your problem. When you are finished, show me. After I
check it you may work on our challenge problems until we come together.
Check together.
20 mins
(9:15-9:35)
explain, justify, evaluate, etc.

Guided Practice:
*Activity related to
presentation/objectives
*Active student participation
~provide rationale for assignment
~multi-sensory and real world
~instructional dialogue
*Transfer of control
~students explain, justify, clarify,
think
aloud
*Check for understanding
~ensure high success rate
~appropriate feedback: praise,
prompt,
probe/question (in ZPD)
Individual Practice:
~assess/error drill
~monitor and adjust instruction
*Management/monitoring
~scan, circulate, assess, support,
praise
Closing:
*Adequate time
*Students summarize content and
accomplishments
*Assess/identify new goals
*Link to future learning
If Extra Time:
Okay, when I say go, you are going to head back to your seats and turn in
your workbook to lesson 11 problem set. For number 1 (the front side), I
want you to do the vowels, j, and k. Then I want you to turn the page and do
number 2. When you are finished raise your hand and get it checked by Mrs.
van Biljon or myself and then you may work on the challenge sheet until we
come back together.
15 mins
(9:35-9:50)
Check problem set together.

Assign homework (lesson 11 homework, 1 vowels, 2)
Go through word problems.
