This numbers and operations in base ten lesson covers how to write numbers in expanded form. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students are asked to identify the place value of each digit in a three-digit number, and then write the number as the addition of the value of each digit.

This number sense lesson focuses on identifying the place value of digits in a number. The lesson includes research-based strategies and questions that help prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students identify a specific digit in a number and identify the place of the digit. Then, they identify the value of the digit. 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 adding decimal numbers. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students identify the decimal numbers being added, is necessary. Then, they line up the decimal numbers by place value, making the decimal points line up. Finally, they add the decimal numbers, line up the decimal point in the sum, and interpret the sum. In addition to the lesson, there are eight pages of Independent Practice and Periodic Review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items and six flashcards on lining up the decimal numbers.

This algebra and functions lesson focuses on using parentheses in expressions. The lesson includes research-based strategies and questions that help prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students write the given expression twice. Then, they insert parentheses around different locations of the expression and evaluate each expression to determine which is correct. Finally, students interpret their answer and read aloud. 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 and operations--fractions lesson teaches students how to subtract fractions with unlike denominators. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students create equivalent fractions to subtract fractions with unlike denominators. Reducing the results is not addressed. This lesson focuses on unlike denominators that require both fractions to be changed.

This algebra and functions lesson focuses on evaluating expressions by using the order of operations. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students substitute the given value of each variable into the expression. Then, they evaluate the expression by determining which operation to perform first (using PEMDAS) and repeating the order until no more operations can be performed. Finally, they compute the value and interpret the answer. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items and 12 flashcards for the order of operations.

This algebra and functions lesson focuses on using a variable to write an algebraic expression. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the problem, identifying the unknown amount, the given number or known amount, and the operation (using clue words or actions such as sum, difference, product, or quotient). Then, they write the algebraic expression. In addition to the lesson, there are eight pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.

This algebra and functions lesson focuses on using the order of operations. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students determine which operation to perform first (using PEMDAS) and repeat the order of operations until no more can be performed. Then, they compute the final value. In addition to the lesson, there are thirteen 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 number sense lesson focuses on using exponent rules. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students identify exponential expressions with the same base. Then, they determine which exponent rule to use. Finally, they use the exponent rules to perform the operation and then interpret an exponential expression. In addition to the lesson, there are eight pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items as well six pages of flashcards about the exponent rules.
