The thought process that leads to the development of quality,
meaningful lesson plans

Guiding questions that will provide the framework for the lesson. (Respond to each question.)
Who will you be teaching? (Identify student grade level as well as academic functioning level and specific needs of individual students)
I will be teaching students who are at the 4th grade level. My students may range from 4th to 12th grade. These students may need additional
supports to grasp this concept.

Who (if anybody) will assist with the presentation of this lesson, and what will their role be?
I will be the main instructor. On select days, I will be assisted by the math coach, the teacher’s aid, and/or or special education teachers.

What is the long range goal(s) that is tied to this lesson?


The long range goals are to complete a long division problem, dividing a 1 digit numeral into a 4 digit numeral, by the end of the 5 day division
lesson.

What is the specific learning math objective(s) for this lesson?


TLW be able to divide a 1 digit number into a 4 digit number that has a remainder.

What prerequisite skills/knowledge will students need to effectively access and participate in this lesson?
The perquisite skills required for long division are to know the one through 12 times tables. The student will be able to multiply 1 digit by 3 digit
numbers; addition; and subtraction.
.
When within the stages of learning will this lesson be presented? (Is it a learning acquisition lesson, learning fluency lesson, learning
maintenance lesson, or learning generalization lesson?)
The long division lesson is a learning acquisition lesson. It will be taught after the acquisition of multiplication of one, two and three digit
numbers.

When will this lesson be completed? (Will it be a one-day lesson or a multiple day lesson?)
The lesson will be completed in five teaching days, the concept will continue to be taught and complete at the end of the 9 week grading period.

Where should this lesson be presented to ensure maximum student access and participation? (computer lab, classroom, science lab…) AND
what materials will be needed?
The lesson will be taught in the classroom, utilizing the whole class, groups, small groups, and partners. Materials that will be used for this
lesson include a variety of manipulatives, the smart board, white boards, markers, web sites, Youtube video demonstration, worksheets, and
paper and pencil.

Why are you planning to teach this lesson? Why must this information/skill be presented to the students?
I am planning to teach this lesson because it is required by the school district and the state of Pennsylvania. It is a skill that is tested on the 5th
grade PSSA examination.

How does this lesson relate to the PA Academic Standards?


2.2.5 A.Create and solve word problems involving addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of whole numbers. 2.2.5.E.
Determine through estimations the reasonableness of answers to problems involving addition, subtraction, multiplication and
division of whole numbers. 2.2.5 H. Explain multiplication and division algorithms. 2.2.3. D. Demonstrate the concept of
division as repeated subtraction and as sharing. 2.2.8. B. Add, subtract, multiply and divide different kinds and forms of
rational numbers including integers, decimal fractions, percents and proper and improper fractions.

How does this lesson relate to the previous lesson? How does this lesson relate to future lessons?
Division relates to the last skill that was multiplication. Multiplication is the inverse operation of division. Division will be utilized in all aspects of
future mathematics. Division is used in fractions, percents, decimals, algebra, calculus, geometry, and probability.

How will you determine if students have met the lesson objective? (Think assessment)
I will know the students have met the lesson objective when they can successfully divide a 2 digit numeral into a 4 digit numeral. This will be
proven on a division exam.

How should this lesson be presented to ensure maximum student access and participation? (lecture, whole group activities, small group
activities, cooperative learning groups…)
The lesson will be demonstrated by the teacher in a whole class setting. The teacher will demonstrate true-to-life scenerios wherein division is
necessary. The teacher will provide examples, using manipulatives, lectures, Youtube video demonstrations, and website video
demonstrations. All of the students will practice together step-by-step, using white boards, work in groups, small groups, and with partners.
The students work will be informally assessed using the white board, practice worksheets, and using a paper and pencil assessment.
