Teacher Actions Student Actions

Do Now (5 – 10 minutes) – Teacher reviews problem from the

previous day. Review the problem and go over any

misconception.

Introduction (5 – 10 minutes): Introduction to new ideas,

definition of purpose, outline the objective.

Introduce new concepts or methods. This can be achieved by

showing a video tutorial of the process. Here the teacher will

show a video of dividing a whole number by a decimal and the

necessary process of converting both numbers into whole

numbers.

Students are given access to Pear Deck. Interactive software

allows the students to give answers.

Students take notes while the video is playing, as well as

when the new information is being broken down by the

teacher.

Guided Practice (20 minutes): Includes questioning tactics,

engagement strategies and feedback methods

Teacher introduces the I DO problem. A problem that is

worked out by the teacher showing the methods just

introduced.

Teacher demonstrates a real-life scenario problem about

making handmade headbands. Each headband needs a certain

amount of fabric to be made. So, the teacher shows you must

divide the total amount of fabric by the amount needed to

create one. This gives you the total amount yielded.

Students repeat the example problems along with the

teacher.

Although this is the I DO example problem, the students

should still engage in the steps that they are familiar with.

For example, when dividing or multiplying numbers after

they have been set up for that step.

Monitor: checks for understanding- formative assessments Monitor and gauge the students understanding. Poll the

classroom for answers and continuously ask questions of

their understanding.

Adjust / re-teach / additional practice (5 minutes):

If needed, teacher walks through another example. The second

example is the WE DO. Review any material that is not

understood.

Additional examples as needed. Re-teach as needed using a

different approach or slower pace.

Independent practice:

Students are given independent questions based on the lesson

objective.

Students are given the Independent Assignment for the day.

Closure (5 minutes): connect ideas, concepts, and skills together and with lesson objectives
