Students will learn to classify whole numbers as prime, composite, or neither based on their factors. They will look up definitions individually and then work as a class to come up with examples and student-friendly definitions of prime and composite numbers. A prime number is only divisible by 1 and itself, a composite number has three or more factors, and a number that is only divisible by itself is neither prime nor composite.
