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 operations and algebraic thinking lesson teaches students how to determine all the factor pairs of a number. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will determine all of the factor pairs of a given number. This is in preparation for later mathematics where students will need to determine a variety of factors for fractions, factoring equations, and several other uses for this particular skill. It is an excellent introduction to factoring and provides several real-world examples for students to practice with.

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 creating a list of factors. The lesson includes research-based strategies and questions that help prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students look at the product given and write the first-factor pair. Then, they list any other factor pairs which have the given product. Finally, students interpret the list of factors. In addition to the lesson, there are 9 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 number sense lesson focuses on determining the greatest common factor of two 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 two numbers and write the numbers as a product of prime factors. Then, they determine the greatest common factor by identifying the prime factors both numbers share and find the product of the shared factors, if necessary. Finally, they read the statement with the greatest common factor. In addition to the lesson, there are five pages of Independent Practice and Periodic Reviews with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.

This number system lesson teaches students how to find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers by finding all the factors of both numbers and comparing them.  This lesson also includes real-world word problems for students to solve.
