1) The lesson objective was to teach students to multiply whole numbers by 10, 100, and 1000 at levels 3 and 4. A card sorting activity was used as an entry task to review basic math skills. 2) Students used whiteboards to practice multiplying numbers by 10, 100, and 1000 with teacher demonstration. They showed their understanding using RAG cards. 3) An activity with correct and incorrect examples was completed, followed by demonstration on the interactive board. Students came up to show their work. 4) Students demonstrated understanding of multiples using whiteboards and did a poster activity in pairs to identify multiples of 10, 100, and 1000.
