Expanded Form For 3 Digits Numbers Lesson Plan

This lesson plan outlines teaching 3rd grade students how to write 3-digit numbers in expanded form. The standards, objectives, assessments, and materials are described. The lesson includes modeling, guided practice using base-10 blocks and a game, independent practice, differentiation strategies, and a reflection. The goal is for students to understand the value of hundreds, tens, and ones places and write numbers like 720 as 700 + 20 + 0.

Lesson Plan for September 30, 2020

SPED 435

Topic: 3-Digit Expanded Form

Standards:
 CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.NBT.A.1: Understand that the three digits of a three-
digit number represent amounts of hundreds, tens, and ones; e.g., 706 equals 7
hundreds, 0 tens, and 6 ones.

 CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.NBT.A.3: Read and write numbers to 1000 using base-


ten numerals, number names, and expanded form.

Objective: Students will be able to show and read numbers within 1,000 in expanded
form.

Student-Friendly Objective: I can show and read 3-digit numbers in expanded form.

Assessment Plan: Orally and through observation. Students will be assessed from their
questions about the lesson concept. Students will also be assessed through observation
to make sure that they understand the lesson concept and how to write a 3-digit
number in expanded form. The worksheets will be collected at the end of the lesson.
Students will also be observed during guided practice to make sure they are correctly
writing 3-digit numbers in expanded form.

Materials Needed:
 Base 10 blocks
 Student practice (pg. 25, 82)
 Scaffolding practice (pg. 23)
 Extension practice (pg. 19)
 Stretch It game cards
 Pencils
 Whiteboard and dry erase markers

Key Vocabulary:
 Place Value: the value of each digit in a number.
 Expanded Form: writing a number to show the value of each digit.

Anticipatory Set (Gain Attention/Motivation/Recall Prior Knowledge):


 I am thinking of a mystery number. It has 2 in the tens, 7 in the hundreds, and 0
in the ones. What number am I thinking of?
Instructional Inputs:
 Students will sit on the mat during modeling and guided practice. They will
return to their home base table for the independent practice and closure.
 Students will listen and follow instructions.
 Students will wait for instructions before using the base 10 blocks.
 Show 5 hundreds, 7 tens, and 3 ones using the base 10 blocks.

Modeling:
 Write 720 on the board. Ask the students to tell you which number is in the
hundreds, tens and ones place.
 After identifying each place value, tell the students that you need to write the
number in expanded form. Or in other words, you need to stretch the number
out to 700+20+0.

Guided practice:
 Write and go through the same process in the modeling section, with these
numbers: 220, 19, 154. Or any numbers that students want to give you.
 Get out the Stretch It game. Tell students they are going to practice writing a 3-
digit number in expanded form. Go through one example with them to make
sure they understand what to do.
 Give each student a Stretch It game card. When students ask for another card,
check their previous card to make sure that they correctly wrote out the number
in expanded form.
Include checking for understanding during guided practice.
 I will check for understanding by check student’s work on one card before
giving them another card.

Closure:
 Say: “What is the big word that we learned today?” (expanded form)
 Remind the students that expanded form means taking the number and
stretching it out to see all the different parts in hundreds, tens, and ones.

Independent practice/application:
 Have students return to their home base table.
 Give students the practice worksheet.
 Answer questions as needed or give correction when applicable.

Differentiation
 Students can use 2-digit numbers to show its expanded form instead of using 3-
digit numbers.
 Scaffolding and/or extension practice pages.
 Letting students use base 10 blocks to show numbers in expanded form.
Transition:
 When a teacher rings a bell, students will put base 10 blocks away, clean up their
work area, put their folders and worksheets away, wash hands, and line up to go
to lunch.

Reflection:
 What went well…
o Every student was able to correctly write at least one 3-digit number in
expanded form. There were only a few students who needed some extra
help with making sure to add zeros to the end of the number in the
hundreds and tens place.
o The students had fun giving me numbers to work on the board for the
whole class. I think that this helped the students to see that writing a 3-
digit number in expanded form is not hard.
o The students were excited and eager to play the Stretch It game. I had a
hard time keeping up with the students because as soon as I erased one
game card, someone was ready for another one.

 Suggestions for improvement…


o If I were going to be teaching this lesson again, I would make more game
cards because there was not enough for all the students. They were just
too fast at finishing. I should have thought this part through better. It
would have been good to have something else for those fast finishers. I
understood from my mentor teacher that this was a topic the students
were struggling with. But by the end of the lesson, I would guess that
most of the students now know how to write a 3-digit number in
expanded form.
