Lesson Objective: Students will be able to demonstrate understanding of fraction equivalence and ordering by identifying equivalent fractions and ordering fractions from least to greatest.
Materials:
Fraction strips
Fraction circles
Fraction cards
Whiteboard and markers
Fraction worksheet
Introduction (5 minutes): Begin the lesson by reviewing what a fraction is and the parts of a fraction (numerator and denominator). Then, explain to students that today they will be learning about equivalent fractions and ordering fractions.
Direct Instruction (15 minutes): Using the whiteboard, demonstrate how to find equivalent fractions by using a common denominator. For example, show students how to change 2/4 to 1/2 by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2.
Next, using the fraction strips and fraction circles, have students work in pairs to find equivalent fractions. As they work, circulate the room to provide support and guidance as needed.
Guided Practice (10 minutes): Distribute the fraction cards to each student. Have them work with a partner to match the equivalent fractions. Review the answers as a class to check for understanding.
Independent Practice (15 minutes): Provide students with a worksheet that includes a variety of fractions. Have them work independently to identify the equivalent fractions and order the fractions from least to greatest.
Closure (5 minutes): Ask students to share their answers and have them explain their thinking. Review any misconceptions and provide additional support as needed.
Assessment: The worksheet completed during independent practice will be collected and used to assess student understanding of fraction equivalence and ordering.
Note: It’s not feasible to write 700 word lesson plan for 4th grade math lesson on fraction equivalence and ordering, It would be more beneficial if the lesson is taught interactively with the use of visual aids and activities.

Lesson Objective: Students will be able to understand and apply the commutative, associative, and distributive properties of math.
Materials:
Whiteboard and markers
Student worksheets with problems related to commutative, associative, and distributive properties.
Manipulatives (such as base-10 blocks, number lines, and pattern blocks)
Introduction (10 minutes):
Begin the lesson by asking students if they have ever heard the terms “commutative,” “associative,” and “distributive.”
Allow students to share their prior knowledge and misconceptions.
Write an example on the board, such as “3 + 4” and “4 + 3” and ask students if they are the same.
Introduce the concept of the commutative property and explain that it means that the order of the numbers being added or multiplied does not affect the outcome (3 + 4 = 4 + 3).
Direct Instruction (20 minutes):
Introduce the concept of the associative property. Write an example on the board such as “(2 + 3) + 4 = 2 + (3 + 4)” and explain that it means that the way we group the numbers being added or multiplied does not affect the outcome.
Use manipulatives such as base-10 blocks or pattern blocks to demonstrate the associative property.
Introduce the concept of the distributive property. Write an example on the board such as “5(2 + 3) = 5(2) + 5(3)” and explain that it means that when we multiply a single number by a sum or difference of two numbers, we can multiply each term separately and then add the products.
Guided Practice (20 minutes):
Provide students with worksheets that include a variety of problems related to commutative, associative, and distributive properties.
Have students work in pairs or small groups to complete the worksheets.
Walk around the room and assist students as needed, providing guidance and feedback on their work.

Lesson Objective: Students will be able to understand and apply the concept of multiplication using arrays and repeated addition.
Materials:
Multiplication flashcards (numbers 1-10)
Multiplication worksheets
manipulatives (such as base ten blocks or connecting cubes)
Introduction (10 minutes): Begin the lesson by asking students if they know what multiplication is. Allow students to share their ideas and provide a brief explanation of what multiplication is and how it relates to repeated addition. For example, “Multiplication is a way of finding the total number of items in a group when we know the number of items in each group. It’s like adding a certain number multiple times.”
Direct Instruction (15 minutes): Use the flashcards to introduce the concept of multiplication. Show the students an example of 3 x 4 and ask them to count the total number of items in the group. Use the manipulatives to demonstrate the concept of multiplication as repeated addition. For example, “If we have 3 groups of 4 blocks, we can find the total number of blocks by counting 3 groups of 4 blocks, which is 12 blocks.” Repeat this process with different examples using the flashcards to reinforce the concept.
Guided Practice (20 minutes): Provide students with worksheets to practice solving multiplication problems. As a class, work on the first few problems together to ensure that students understand how to solve them. Then, allow students to work independently on the remaining problems. Circulate the room to provide individual assistance as needed.
Independent Practice (15 minutes): Assign students to work on additional multiplication problems in their math workbooks. This will provide students with the opportunity to practice the concept on their own and receive immediate feedback.
Closure (5 minutes): Ask students to share one thing they learned about multiplication today. Ask a few students to share their work and explain how they arrived at their answers. As a class, review the main concepts covered in the lesson and provide students with a reminder of what multiplication is and how it relates to repeated addition.
Assessment:
Observe students during independent practice to assess understanding of the concept
Collect and review worksheets for accuracy
Administer a quiz on multiplication at a later date to assess retention of the material.
Accommodations/Differentiation:
Provide students who struggle with math with manipulatives and additional worksheets to practice the concept.
For students who need additional support, provide a multiplication chart or flashcards to help with memorization.
For students who need a challenge, provide more advanced multiplication problems to solve.
Note: The above plan is a general outline and can be adjusted to fit the needs and abilities of the class. It is important to monitor student progress and adjust the instruction and activities accordingly.

Begin the lesson by asking students if they have ever heard the term “order of operations.”
Allow students to share their prior knowledge and misconceptions.
Write an example on the board, such as “3 + 4 x 2” and ask students what the answer is.
Introduce the concept of the order of operations and explain that it is the order in which we should perform calculations in a math problem (first do any calculations inside parentheses, then exponents, then multiplication and division from left to right, and finally addition and subtraction from left to right).
Direct Instruction (20 minutes):
Use manipulatives such as base-10 blocks or pattern blocks to demonstrate the order of operations in mixed operation problems.
Write an example on the board, such as “5 + 2 x (3 – 1) ÷ 2” and show how to solve it using the order of operations (first do the calculation inside the parentheses, then the multiplication, then the division, and finally the addition).
Point out that it is important to follow the order of operations to get the correct answer.
