Subject: Mathematics

Grade Level: 3

Topic: Expanded Form

Objective:
By the end of the lesson, students will be able to write and read numbers up to 4 digits in expanded notation.

Standards:

  • Number and Operations in Base Ten: Understand place value.

Materials Needed:

  • Whiteboard and markers
  • Place value mats (thousands, hundreds, tens, ones)
  • Digit cards or dice (optional)
  • Worksheet for practice
  • Manipulatives such as base ten blocks
  • Projector
  • Students’ Chromebooks
  • Teacher’s blogsite  (janicebowes3.blogspot.com )

 

Lesson Plan Outline (5E Model)

Engage (5 minutes)

Objective: Introduce the concept and activate prior knowledge.

  • Begin with a quick review of place value (thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones).
  • Ask students, "What does each digit represent in the number 3,456?"
  • Show a number on the board (e.g., 2,345) and ask students what they notice about the digits.
  • Introduce expanded notation using an example like 2,345 = 2,000 + 300 + 40 + 5.

Explore (10 minutes)

Objective: Allow students to manipulate and explore numbers in expanded notation.

  • Hand out base ten blocks or place value charts.
  • Write a few 4-digit numbers on the board (e.g., 1,234; 5,678).
  • Ask students to represent each number using base ten blocks.
  • Guide them as they expand the number by saying aloud each component (e.g., 5,678 = 5,000 + 600 + 70 + 8).
  • Watch a video clip from teacher’s blogsite which further clarifies topic in question.
  • Complete an oral activity from the blogsite.

Explain (15 minutes)

Objective: Formal explanation and guided practice on expanded notation.

  • Write a few examples on the board, such as:
    • 3,254 = 3,000 + 200 + 50 + 4
    • 7,681 = 7,000 + 600 + 80 + 1
  • Ask students to break the numbers down with the help of place value charts or base ten blocks.
  • Write numbers and ask students to say the expanded form aloud as a class.
  • Introduce an interactive activity where students work in pairs to write 3-4 examples of 4-digit numbers in expanded form.
  • Provide examples from the blogsite for further support.

Elaborate (15 minutes)

Objective: Students independently apply their knowledge to new problems.

  • Hand out a worksheet with several 4-digit numbers.
  • Students will write the expanded form of each number.
  • For differentiation, give some students numbers up to 3 digits to practice.
  • Circulate around the classroom to check on understanding and provide support.

Challenge Activity (for early finishers):

  • Have students create their own 4-digit number and write the expanded form on a mini whiteboard or notebook. Then, they can swap with a partner to check each other’s work.
  • Complete activities from teacher’s blogsite on their own and check their scores.

Evaluate (10 minutes)

Objective: Assess students' understanding through tiered evaluation.

  • Tier 1 (Basic):
    • Give students a 4-digit number and ask them to write its expanded notation on their exit ticket (e.g., 4,567).
    • Expected response: 4,000 + 500 + 60 + 7
  • Tier 2 (Intermediate):
    • Provide numbers with missing parts of expanded notation (e.g., 3,000 + ___ + 70 + 6). Ask students to fill in the blanks. (3376)
    • Expected response: 300
  • Tier 3 (Advanced):
    • Provide the expanded form of a number and ask students to write the standard number (e.g., 7,000 + 200 + 50 + 3).
    • Expected response: 7,253

Closing:

  • Briefly review the day's objective and key takeaways.
  • Ask students to share one thing they learned about expanded notation.
