Mathematics Instructional Design Lesson Planning Template Class: 6th Grade Lesson: CMP3 Inv 3 Prob3.1 Date: 2016-2017 Important Mathematics to Develop Factorization (factor/s), Prime factorization, prime numbers, nonprime numbers, classifying the Number “1” Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic- each whole number can be written as a product of primes in one way and only one way. Focus Question: How can you find the prime factorization of a number? Standards for Mathematical Practice and Content 6.EE.A.2a Write expressions that record operations with numbers and with letters standing for numbers. Note: The development of in this lesson/ Unit is primarily with numerical expressions is further developed with expressions containing variables in Variables and Patterns. 6.EE.A.2b Identify parts of an expression using mathematical terms (sum, term, product, factor, quotient, coefficient); view one or more parts of an expression as a single entity. Note: the words term and coefficient are developed in Variables and Patterns. 6.NS.B.4 Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12. Use the distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1-100 with a common factor (as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor. For example, express 36 + 8 as 4 (9 + 2). Note: the development of the Distributive Property with variables is contained in Variables and Patterns. SMP.3 Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. SMP.8 Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. Learning Intention We are learning that all whole numbers (greater than 1) can be represented as a product of factors. Success Criteria We will be successful when we can: decompose a number into its factors. demonstrate the factorization of a number into its prime factors. articulate the strategies used in the factorization of a number into its prime factors. Mathematical Task and needed material Additional notes Labsheet 3.1A The Product Puzzle (one per student) Labsheet 3.1B List of Factor Strings (accessibility) Students can work in pairs and then share their work with other pairs. 6/2016 5-10 minutes Notes/Reflection Launch Connecting to Prior Knowledge (TE pg.135 ): Discuss and Connect to the idea of creating factor pairs for a number and move the thinking to creating a longer string of factors. Demonstrate using a factor tree and show factor string. Eg. Factor pairs: 24 = 4 x 6, 2 x 12, or 3 x 8. Ask students if they can think of three factors for 24 that do not include the number 1. Is there a different string of three numbers that will give you a product of 24? Longer strings 24 = 4 x 2 x 3, 2 x 2 x 6, 3 x 4 x 2 Let’s look at 360. What numbers can you multiply to get a product of 360? How could we organize our solution? Show factor tree after students suggestions Launch Video to illustrate the concept of factor strings. Factor tree and factor string Focus on the factors and not the order of the factors. 4 x 2 x 3 vs 3 x 4 x 2 (same factors) Consider using video for visual learners. Presenting the Challenge: Pass out Present the Product PuzzleState the Problem as searching for strings that are the factorization of 840. Explore 20- 30 minutes Whole group Questions for students to consider as they work on the Product Puzzle, “How do you know when you have found the longest possible string?” Small group/ Individual Have students record the strings they find on the Labsheets 3.1A. and 3.1B As you (teacher) circulate push students to find strings longer than those they may have. You may have students record their findings on the board or on a large poster, listing the strings they have found. Summarize 10-15 minutes Whole group Ask students to look closely/ carefully at the strings on the board. Discuss any revisions, strings that could be added. Relate strings with two factors and those with three. Ask students to provide explanation for how a string with three factors relate to a string with four factors. How could we use a string with five factors to get a string with six factors? Six to seven?.... Longest string of factors made up of prime numbers is called the prime factorization of the number. *How can you find the prime factorization of a number? *How could students apply this process of prime factorization to their lives? Apply *Consider what are the main ideas you want students to leave with? Assign problems from ACE (Application, Connections Extensions) relative to Problem 3.1 (pgs. 54-60) Assign questions from Mathematical Reflections(pg. 61) 5-10 minutes Mr. Rawlings has 60 cookies. He wants to give each of his 16 grandchildren the same number of cookies. What is the greatest number of whole cookies he can give each child? After he gives his grandchildren their cookies, how many will he have left? Use the following questions to assess students understanding at the end of the lesson. What evidence do I have that students understand the Focus Question? o Where did my students get stuck? o What strategies did they use? o What breakthroughs did my students have today? 6/2016 Students may work in pairs. Create a large poster for students to record their strings. Look for problems/tasks that are more than just additional practice but an application of the skill taught.
