Adding and Subtracting Multi-Digit Whole Numbers
Overview
3rd grade math problem trail lesson plan to practice accurately adding and subtracting multi-digit numbers incorporating physical activity.
Student Activity
3.CA.1 Fluently add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using strategies and algorithms based on place value, properties of operations, and relationships between addition and subtraction.
Make sure to put the students in equal groups with a mix of students who may excel in the subject and some that may need extra support. This is in the hope that there will be some peer coaching and support.
The formative assessment for this lesson will be completed by monitoring and observing the students as they complete the activity. I will be looking for active participation and usage of the learned math techniques.
For the summative assessment, I will be taking a grade on the completed worksheet looking for at least 80% accuracy upon first attempt. Should students get problems incorrect, I would mark it and instruct them to reattempt the problem as a group.

SPED Scaffolding: In order to better support any SPED student that may have a mobility issue, I would reorganize the classroom specifically for this assignment so that it is easy/safe to maneuver around the room and get to each station. This includes being wheelchair friendly.
ELL Scaffolding: In order to better support any ELL student, I would have them directly partner up with another student or an instructional assistant (if available) within their group so that they may get some extra help if necessary.
For a high ability student, I would have them work directly with another student that may need some extra support and have them peer coach/teach.
The task is to move around the room to the various stations where you will find different math problems on a piece of paper. Your job is to locate all of the stations and complete each problem AS A GROUP.
Each student will have their own worksheet where they will show their work and write the answer. I will also be monitoring the room to make sure that every student is contributing. The first group to complete the worksheet with 100% accuracy wins a prize.
All students in a group must turn in the worksheet at the same time and have all of the same answers. If no work is shown, then there is no credit. I will grade each paper and return it to you if corrections are needed.
