Group, partition and rearrange collections up to 1000 in hundreds, tens and ones to facilitate more efficient counting (ACMNA028)
The lesson
Lesson outcome Children understanding three-digit numbers as comprised of hundreds, tens and ones/units
Differentiation and learner considerations: The gifted Students with a learning disability Indigenous Students EAL/D
We do: (Examples)
Scaffolding efficient counting as a whole group, using thinking aloud and student input to make: (a) $150 (b) $175 (C) $240
Make and record what you used in your mathematical journal: (a) $250 (b) $375 (c) $140
Enabling prompts:
Asking the student to summarise their knowledge what have you tried (Sullivan, 2011) Reducing the size of the number Embedding more concrete representations to support counting, such as a hundreds chart.
Create five different combinations of money totalling $300. Ask students to make $150, $175, $450 using any notes and record in their mathematical journal Use mathematical thinking stars for students to record their reasoning in their journals Inquire if you only had hundred dollar notes, how many to give me if something costs $275, $380 or $550.
Class communication, for reasoning, relating ideas and analysing student conjectures.
Students share their methods and thinking that they recorded in their mathematical thinking diaries. Teacher is facilitator and scaffolder of class discussion New ways of thinking and efficient ways of counting (grouping in like notes) is recorded on the white board, or on large sheets of paper to be used as display, focused teaching and for reference for future teaching
Students can make numbers with specific number of notes, for example, making $550 with 10 notes and then with 20 notes, or with as little or as many notes as possible. Students can explore the relationship between using more notes and the increasing difficulty of counting Students can explore the difference between making $660 with only the same notes and or with as many different notes as possible
