Word Problem and Reviewing Informal Methods to Add Three-Digit Numbers


(Stepping Stones 8.1)

Central Focus (Enduring Understandings)


A description of the important understanding(s) and concept(s)
There are different methods to solving problems. Comparing the different methods for recording sums of
three-digit numbers will help you determine which method is easier to do. Different methods include
recording addition questions vertically, using number lines, or drawing pictures.
Content Standard(s)
The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) or Hawaii Content & Performance Standards III (HCPS III)
that align with the central focus and address essential understandings, concepts, and skills
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.3.NBT.A.1
Use place value understanding to round whole numbers to the nearest 10 or 100.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.3.NBT.A.2
Fluently add and subtract within 1000 using strategies and algorithms based on place value, properties of
operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction.
Student Learning Objectives
Outcomes to be achieved by the students by the end of the lesson or by the end of the multi-lesson
learning segment
Students will compare different methods for recording sums of addition questions.
Students will be able to add three digit numbers and find the sum/total.
Students will use the vertical methods to record the steps they are using mentally.
Assessments
The procedures to gather evidence of students learning of learning objective(s) to include formative
(informal) assessments applied throughout the lesson and summative assessments (formal) of what
students learned by the end of the lesson (include any assessment tools)

Informal Assessment:
Choral Response
Student Math Notebook Sometime during instruction, students will be testing out different
methods of solving addition questions in their notebooks. They will also be able to explain their
thinking to a peer and work with a peer to solve a three-digit addition problem.
Formal Assessment:
Student Journal 8.1 During independent practice, students will be completing pages 176-177.
They will need to estimate what they think the sum of the two numbers will be and then use a
method that they are comfortable doing to solve the exact total.

Story Problem Practice (15 min)


Begin class by explaining that they will be doing
another quick practice of story problems
independently for about five minutes to calm us
down from recess.
Have students glue the story problem slip into
their math notebook and begin right away.

Glue their story problem slip into their math


notebook and begin solving the problem.

When time is up, have students place their pencil


in their notebook and close their notebook for
now. Then direct students attention to the front
and discuss the question of word problem. Break
down the question using the cubes strategy. Ask
for a volunteer to write out the strategy onto the
word problem.

Place pencil in notebook and direct attention to the


front of the room to discuss the word problem.

Discuss how to solve the problem step by step as


a class. Use students as examples to help the class
visualize the problem. Ask guiding questions to
scaffold students understanding of how to solve
the problem.

Selected students will stand at the front of the class


to represent the problem. Students who did not
complete the word problem will add to their
notebook as I work through the problem.

Select about two students to share their


notebooks to the class of how they got their
problem and the different methods they used.

Selected students will explain their understanding


while everyone else observes their work and has their
notebooks closed.

Lesson Introduction
Explain that for math today, they will be looking
at different methods to solving the sum of a
problem. Ask students what are some methods
they use when solving an addition question.

Share some of their favorite methods when solving


an addition problem.

Teaching the Lesson/Practice (20 min)


Project the price tags $224 and $273 and ask,
What do you think is the total you will pay for
these two items? How do you know?

Have a volunteer come up to show the cubes


strategy to the class.

Make guesses in their head of what the sum might


be.

Write estimated guesses on board.


Have students try to solve the problem in their
math notebook using a strategy they are
comfortable doing for a few minutes.

Solve the problem in their math notebook using a


strategy they know.

Stop the class and discuss some of the answers


they got and the method they used.

Share their thinking process to the class.

Work through the different methods to show how


they could record their thinking in vertical
formats.

Observe how vertical formats can be used to solve an


addition problem.

Project the price tags $632 and $152 and ask,


What do you think is the total you will pay for
these two items? How do you know?

Make guesses in their head of what the sum might


be.

Write estimated guesses on board.


Have students try to solve the problem in their
math notebook using a strategy they are
comfortable doing or the vertical format they
learned a few minutes ago.

Solve the problem in their math notebook using a


strategy they know or using the vertical format they
just learned.

Then have students discuss with a peer their


thinking process when solving the problem.

Share their thinking process with a peer.

Work with a peer to solve the next problem,


$345 and $624. Have students estimate the sum
first then work together to solve the problem in
their notebook.

Work with a partner to solve the problem.

When finished, students will close their


notebooks and focus their attention to the front.
Independent Practice (10 min)
Go over the questions that students will be
completing independently on pages 176 to 177.

Listen to directions, and then open their Student


Journal to begin 8.1 independently.

Walk around the class to support struggling


students.
Closing
Ask the class to close up their notebooks and
share one thing they learned in math today. Ask
students to share which method they find easier
to do to solve the sum of three-digit addition
problems.

Share what they learned and what method they find


easier to do.

Differentiation
Instructional strategies and planned supports to meet the needs of individuals, and/or groups of students
who are in your class during the lesson and may require different strategies or support.
Encourage accelerated students to show other methods and struggling individuals to draw picture to
show their thought process.
Teacher will walk around the classroom to support students.
Instructional Resources and Materials
Books, texts, and other materials needed for the lesson

Math Notebook
Student Journal 8.1
