Waynesburg University
Lesson Objective(s
TLW identify and practice that a smaller numeral can fit into a larger number. TLW identify that this process is called dividing.
TLW identify that division is the opposite of multiplication; just as addition is the opposite of subtraction. TLW will practice with
multiplication problems that they already know such as the 9’s times tables. For example 8 x 9 = 72. TLW utilize 72 manipulatives
to be divided 9 ways; the result being 8 groups. TLW take the concept and show how it is written mathematically. TLW repeat
this process using all of the 9s times tables. TLW use glogster.com to create an online poster, to demonstrate understanding.
Assessment Plan
(What will be done to determine if lesson objectives have been met?)
TLW be assessed using 72 / 9 = 8. TLW set up, and solve the problem using the correct procedures and symbols.
TLW demonstrate using the 9’s times tables to divide the numbers 90, 81, 72, 63, 54, 45, 36, 27, 18, and 9 by 9.
TLW write 8 x 9 = 72; 72 / 9 = 8. TLW continue this process using the numbers 90, 81, 72, 63, 54, 45, 36, 27, 18, and.
TLW use the correct mathematical procedures and symbols to show this concept.
TLW demonstrate comprehension of this concept by creating an online poster.
TLW log onto: www.glogster.com .
TLW register by creating a user nickname and password.
TLW click on “create a glog.”
TLW hit the EDIT key and input 72/9 = 8; and 8 x 9 = 72.
TLW utilize the functions of glogster to create and complete their online posters.
TLW demonstrate understanding using their creativity on glogster.
TLW use a minimum of 5 glogster applications on their poster.
Materials: manipulatives to divide; worksheets, pencil, eraser, paper, white board, marker, eraser, smart board , computer,
Youtube,gameaquarium.org, and www.glogster.com
Enrichment Techniques:
TLW log onto the web site: http://www.gamequarium.org/dir/SqoolTube_Videos/Math/Division/ and view the 4 enrichment videos
online, upon teacher discretion.
TLW log onto the web site: http://www.gamequarium.org/dir/Gamequarium/Math/Division/ and play game #4 Division Bingo, upon
teacher discretion.
TLW utilize more advanced applications using glogster.com on their poster.
Lesson Differentiation (What modifications/accommodations will be made to ensure that ALL students have access to and are able
to participate in the lesson):
The classroom set up will be so that all students can see and hear the instructor. All manipulatives and handouts will be large
enough so that all students and see and use them. The desks will be placed together for small group work. Each student will
create a glogster at their own pace. TLW be required to use fewer applications.
Lesson Presentation
Introduction/Motivational Activities/Anticipatory Set:
TLW decide how a Hershey’s chocolate bar will be divided among classmates. TLW decide how a number of objects, provided by
the teacher, can be distributed equally, among classmates. TLW then watch as 72 manipulatives are divided 9 ways. TLW estimate
how many groups there will be. TLW divide 72 manipulatives 9 ways and see that they will get 8 groups. After the manipulative
demonstration, TLW use a white board and demonstrate 72 / 9 = 8, using proper procedures and symbols. TLW will learn that the
problem is complete because there are no other numbers to bring down, and because 9 goes into 72 evenly.
Closure: TLW be asked how they think we could divide a number when there it does not divide evenly. A number they do not
know the times tables for.
