Extension Lesson-Prior to this lesson, the students worked with numbers up to 200. This lesson is an extension because
the students are working with numbers within 1,000.
Concept for this lesson: Relate manipulative representations to the subtraction algorithm, and use addition to explain why the subtraction method
works.

Understand that in adding or
subtracting three-digit numbers, one
adds or subtracts hundreds and

I knew that 7+3=10 and 17+3=20, so
I knew 170+30=200.

Lesson Reflection:
There are areas that I am challenging myself to strengthen, omit, and modify in future lessons.
This is what Ive come up with.
Allow more time for student exploration. Cover less content but dig deeper and make learning more meaningful.
The inquiry questions were effective but the students should be given more think time for their explanations.
Give the students guidance, not hints.
Keep the students actively engaged. Increase the use of random selection (student names on playing cards).
Be mindful that the students already had exposure to the strategies used in this lesson. They are building on their prior knowledge. More
scaffolding could be done in a small group setting.
Do not over-teach when being observed or recorded. I must pace myself, stick to the plan, and not over-saturate my instruction.
The lesson study process was enlightening because it helped me to explicitly understand my role as the teacher, which is to create learning
opportunities that build upon what the students already know. Using the 5E Model made lesson planning more purposeful and made my teaching
more focused.
