This operations and algebraic thinking lesson covers how to memorize multiplication facts. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will practice the multiplication facts of numbers 2 through 10 by a combination of reading aloud and writing each fact many times in horizontal and vertical formats.

This number sense lesson focuses on using the relationship between multiplication and division to check answers. The lesson includes research-based strategies and questions that help prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students identify the operation needed to check the answer. Then, they set up the multiplication or division problem and identify the numbers used to create the problem. Finally, students check the answer by solving the problem. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.

This number sense lesson focuses on determining if a number is prime or composite. The lesson includes research-based strategies and questions that help prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the number. Then, they determine if it is composite or prime by trying to divide by either 2, 3, 5, or 7. Finally, students justify their answer. In addition to the lesson, there are eight pages of Independent Practice and Periodic Reviews with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.

This number sense lesson focuses on determining the prime factorization of numbers. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students determine the prime factorization of the number using a factorization tree, factoring all composite numbers until they are prime. Finally, they write the prime factorization using exponents if necessary and checking and interpreting the answer. In addition to the lesson, there are twelve pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.

This number sense lesson focuses on multiplying decimal numbers. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students multiply the bottom factor with each digit of the top factor, regrouping if needed. Then, they count the total number of decimal places in the two factors and place a decimal in the product that many places to the left. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and Periodic Reviews with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.

This algebra and functions lesson focuses on using the distributive property in expressions with variables. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students identify the factor and then multiply the factor outside the parentheses to each value inside the parentheses. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items and six flash cards.

This expressions and equations lesson teaches students how to write numerical expressions using exponential form. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will use the exponential form to represent different values. Students will also relate exponents to place value and develop other conceptual understandings of what exponents are. This lesson does not cover evaluating expressions with exponents.

This expressions and equations lesson covers how to factor expressions. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will determine a factor the terms have in common, rewrite each term as a product using the common factor, and rewrite the expression as a product of expressions using the common factor. Finally, they will interpret the factored expression stating what it is equivalent to.

This number sense lesson focuses on simplifying radical expressions. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the radical expression and identify the radicand. Then, they find the prime factors of the radical expression and rewrite it as the product of prime factors of the radicand. Finally, they simplify the radical expression and interpret the solution. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.

This Algebra 1 lesson teaches students how to multiply rational expressions. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. Students will factor the polynomials in the numerator and denominator, if possible, and then reduce common factors if possible. Finally, they will multiply the rational expressions. In addition to the lesson, there is one page of Independent Practice and three pages of periodic review.
