The document outlines a mathematics lesson plan for class B7 on numeration systems. The lesson plan covers three key areas: (1) modeling large numbers using place value concepts, (2) comparing and ordering numbers greater than 1 billion using symbols like > and =, and (3) rounding whole numbers greater than 1 billion to varying place values and significant figures. The plan details learning activities, assessments, and resources to help students understand and apply these numeration concepts.

PHASE 1: STARTER Recap with learners to find out what they already know
about rounding off and significant figures.

Share with learners the performance indicators.

PHASE 2: NEW Guide learners to round off whole numbers up to Counters, bundle

For example, 1,879,653 to the nearest Bundle of sticks
i. hundred thousand is 1,900,000 since 1,879,653 is
nearer to 1,900,000 than 1 ,800,000

ii. ten thousand is 1,880,000 since 1,879,653 is


nearer to 1,880,000 than 1,870,000.

Guide learners to explain the differences between


the “round up” and “round down” concepts.

When rounding up, we consider the larger number,


while when rounding down, we consider the smaller
of the two.

The table below may bring out the meaning of the


concept.
Guide learners to express whole numbers to
significant figures
For example 857386321
i. five significant figures is 857390000
the fifth significant figure is 8 but the figure after it
(i.e. the 6th significant figure) is 6 which is greater
than 5. Therefore we add 1 to 8 to give 9.

ii. four significant figures is 857400000


the fourth significant figure is 3 but the figure after it
(i.e. the 5th significant figure) is 8 which is greater
than 5. Therefore we add 1 to 3 to give 4

iii. three significant figures is 857000000


the third significant figure is 7 but the figure after it
(i.e. the 4th significant figure) is 3 which is less than 5.
Therefore we leave 7 as it is.

Let learners investigate and determine basic division


facts including divisibility test.
(i) determine how a given number is divisible by 2,3,
4, 5, 6, 7 8, 9,10, etc.

For example, a number is divisible by 3 if the sum of


its digits is divisible by 3.
So, 72 is divisible by 3 because 7+2 = 9. Hence since
9 is divisible by 3, then 72 is divisible by 3.

Also, to find out if a number is divisible by 7, take the


last digit in the number then double it and subtract
from the rest of the number. If the answer is 0 or a
multiple of 7, then the number is divisible by 7.

So, 595 is divisible by 7 because 5 x 2 =10. 59 – 10 =


49. Therefore, 595 is divisible by 7.

and the other piece is 30 cm wide. She wants to cut both
pieces into strips of equal width that are as wide as possible.
How wide should she cut the strips?

Answer: This problem can be solved using H.C.F. because


we are cutting or “dividing” the strips of cloth into smaller
pieces (Factor) of 24 and 30 (Common) and we are looking
for the widest possible strips (Highest).
So, H.C.F. of 24 and 30 is 6 So we can say that

techniques to determine the product of two given
numbers.
i. 28 x 5, think 14 x 10=140
ii. 125 x 4, think (125 x 2) x 2 = 250 x 2 = 500

Have learners to solve mathematics problems


involving the properties of operations.
Example: the commutative property.
In mathematics, a binary operation is commutative if
changing the order of the operands does not change the
result.
If a and b are rational numbers and --- a x b = b x a.
Then we say multiplication of rational numbers is
commutative.
E.g. 2 x 3 = 3 x 2
Guide learners use mental strategies to perform
subtraction using words like minus, from a number
take, , find the difference, and what must be added to
make;
E.g.1. what is 109 minus 49 = 60
E.g.2. from 89 take away 32

Engage learners to express a given number as a


product of a given number or numbers.
E.g. i. 32 = 2×2×2×2×2 . = 25
ii. 81 = 3×3×3×3 = 34
iii. 49 = 7×7 = 72
iv. 16 × 27 = 2×2×2×2 × 3×3×3 = 24 × 33

Perform activities with pupils to discover that for any


natural number a, a0 = 1
Example:
24
i.e. (i) 24 ÷ 24 = 1 2222 2222
24
(ii) 24 ÷ 24 = 24-4 = 20 = 1

Guide learners to verify why the value of any natural


number with exponent zero is 1.
Verification:.
𝑥 𝑥
𝑥
=1, but from indices, 𝑥 =𝑥0 , hence 𝑥0=1 for any
natural number

Assessment
Simplify the following
6) 23 x 2-4
7) 22x24x2-3
8) 56x5-2x5-3
9) 24x2-3
10) 53x5-3

Express the following as a product of their prime


factors
1) 180 2) 72 3)81 4) 49 5) 16
PHASE 3: Use peer discussion and effective questioning to find out
REFLECTION from learners what they have learnt during the lesson.

Take feedback from learners and summarize the lesson.
