Subject/ Topic/ Theme Multiplication Game Activity
Grade 3rd grade
I. Objectives
How does this lesson connect to the unit plan?
Students are working on multiplication. Before they move on to next lesson and learn about arrays, they need to practice simple
multiplication problems and be familiar with equal groups.
cognitivephysical
socioLearners will be able to:
R U Ap An E C* development emotional
Ap
solve one-digit multiplication problems.
x
x
Ap
develop their fluency of multiplication facts through playing game with their partners.
x
Ap
use various strategies (using pebbles, equal groups, skip counting) to solve multiplication
problems.
Common Core standards (or GLCEs if not available in Common Core) addressed:
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.3.OA.A.1 : Interpret products of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 5 7 as the total number of objects in 5
groups of 7 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a total number of objects can be expressed as 5 7.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.3.OA.A.3 : Use multiplication and division within 100 to solve word problems in situations involving
equal groups, arrays, and measurement quantities, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to
represent the problem.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.SL.3.1: Engage effectively in a range of collaborative discussions (one-on-one, in groups, and teacher-led)
with diverse partners on grade 3 topics and texts, building on others' ideas and expressing their own clearly.
(Note: Write as many as needed. Indicate taxonomy levels and connections to applicable national or state standards. If an objective applies to particular learners
write the name(s) of the learner(s) to whom it applies.)

II. Before you start

Identify prerequisite
knowledge and skills.
Students will need to understand how multiplication works. Also, they will need to know how to do
addition, and how to model and count equal groups.
Pre-assessment (for learning): I will check students previous homework and see how they did. Were
they able to get correct answers?
Formative (for learning):
I will monitoring students' understanding by asking questions during the lesson and by having
students do multiplication. Also, while students are playing "Trap It" game, I will walk around, check
their answers, and help students who need extra help.
Outline assessment
activities
(applicable to this lesson)
Formative (as learning):

Students will assess their own learning by seeing if their answers were correct or not. Also, they will
compare their answers with their math partners.
Summative (of learning):

At the end of lesson, I will hand out a worksheet. Students will solve eight multiplication story
problems. If students will not be able to finish it by the end of lesson, that will be their homework. I
will collect the worksheets and grade them. Also, I will collect the pink sheets that students used while
they are playing game. I will check their math work.

Describe teacher activities

AND
student activities
for each component of the lesson. Include important higher order thinking questions and/or
prompts.
Before begin the lesson, ask students to bring a
scrap paper and a pink sheet.
1.Show Counting by 5s video to students.
Motivation
(opening/
introduction/
engagement)
-listen to the song and count numbers by 5s.
2. After watch a video, give two story problems to

students.
3. Show the problem using projector and read the
first problem to students.
1) Katherine went to the store to buy some candies.
She bought 3 boxes of orange candies and 4 boxes
of strawberry candies. There were 3 candies in
each box. In total, how many candies did Katherine
buy at the store? Draw a quick picture to show the
equal groups and find the answer.
4. Ask students to give me a thumb up when they
finish.
-solve the first problem.
5. Walk around and check their answers.

6.Ask students, "how can we model this problem?
how many boxes did Katherine buy? how many
candies were in each box? let's draw equal groups."
Draw equal groups and explain the answer.
-response to my questions.
7. Ask students, "How can we use multiplication to

find the answer?" Pick one of the students to
answer. 7 groups of 3 = 7x3 = 21 candies
8. Give another story problem.
2)Each day, Maxim read 9 pages. How many pages
does Maxim read in one week?
9. Ask students to give a thumb up when they
finish.
-solve the second problem.
10. Go over the answer with students.

7 groups of 9 = 7x9 = 63 pages

cover the space with its product.
-Take turns until one player covers the final
hexagon around one of the frogs.
-read the directions together.
-who is the winner? the first player who trap one

of the frogs.
14. Ask students to record their math work on the
folded pink sheet while they are playing game. Ask
them to fold the pink sheet and make 10 spaces.
"When you solve a problem, show your math work
on your pink sheet. One problem for each box. For
example, write down 3 groups of 4 and show your
math work. "
-fold the pink sheet and make 10 spaces.
"Once your group has a winner, check the next

directions on the screen and follow the directions."
-ask questions.
15. Ask student, "Do you have any question?"
16. Answer to their questions.
-find a partner and bring materials.
17. Ask students to find their math partner and
bring materials to play game.

20.write down 5 direction on the screen.

1) put the game boards on the white chair.
2) put counters and clipboards, back into the box.
3) give your pink sheet to Miss Choi.
4) bring a worksheet and a new pink sheet on the
tall chair and go back to your seat.
5)solve 8 problems on the folded pink sheet.
-follow the next directions.
21. "Great job learners. We solved lots of

multiplication problems today. It's time for
transition. If you were not able to finish the
worksheet, this will be your homework for
tomorrow. Solve all 8 problems and write down
your answers on the folded pink sheet and bring it
tomorrow. If you finished all 8 problems, give your
pink sheet to me."
-follow the directions and clean up
Your reflection about the lesson, including evidence(s) of student learning and engagement, as well as ideas for improvement
for next time. (Write this after teaching the lesson, if you had a chance to teach it. If you did not teach this lesson, focus on the
process of preparing the lesson.)
1-19-13
I ran out of time. A Spanish teacher came into the classroom before students cleaned up everything. Students successfully solved two
story problems in the beginning of the lesson. Also, they really enjoyed watching and singing "Counting by 5s." After I explained the
game directions, almost every student raised their hands to ask me questions. Students asked unexpected questions and the most
questions were about the game directions. When I planned this lesson, I thought this was an easy game. Actually, this game's
directions were easier than the previous games that students played before. I concluded that it was my fault. Because my directions
were not clear enough, students had so many questions. I spent almost 15 minutes to answer all the questions. When I checked the
time, I had only 13 minutes left. It was not enough to play a game and also do a worksheet. So, I let students play this game for the
rest of the time and assigned a worksheet as a homework for tomorrow. From this lesson, I learned that a teacher should be flexible
and be prepared to teach. Also, I learned that the lesson may not go as well as I hope. For next time, I will explain the directions more
specifically.
