Lesson Plan #8 Title: Expanded, Standard Sort

Lesson Overview: Students will draw on their knowledge of the expanded form of a number

and be able to read a 3-digit number in expanded form and then match the expanded form to its

standard form.

Performance Objective 8: Given 8 3-digit numbers in expanded form, students will write the

standard form of the number correctly 2 out of 3 times.

Time: 65 Minutes.

Step 1: Pre-Instructional Activities: (10 minutes)

 Review with students the expanded form of a number. Ask students what does expanded

form mean.

 Call on a few students to come to the board to write the expanded form of a number given

by the teacher.
  Explain the goal of the lesson of taking the expanded form of a number and being able to

read the expanded form and take the number and write it in standard form.

Step 2: Content Presentation (10 Minutes)

 Write the number 275 on the board and next to it write “Standard Form.”

 Below the number write the number in expanded form, “2 hundreds + 7 tens + 5 ones,

and then write “Expanded Form” next to it.

 Explain to students that numbers can be written in several ways. Normally we only see

the standard form of a number, but in order to understand a numbers value, we also need

to understand the expanded form of a number which tells us the value of each digit and

with this knowledge it will help us with other math skills, such as money, addition and

subtraction with regrouping, and multiplication and so forth.

 Explain to students the activity they will be completing for this lesson.

 Students will be given a piece of construction paper and 10 sort cards. The sort cards

have the expanded form of a number written out and students will have to write the

standard form of the given expanded form. In addition, students will draw the base-10

blocks representation of each number.

 They will glue the cards on the construction paper and use a crayon to write the number,

and the base-10 blocks representation.

Step 3: Learner Participation (25 Minutes)

 Students will work independently completing the sort. Teacher will walk around the

room and provide assistance to students who need help.

Step 4: Assessment (15 Minutes)

  Students will use IXL Learning to practice place value skills. There is no grade taken for

this assessment. IXL Learning: Convert Expanded Form Up to Hundreds Link:

models-up-to-hundreds (IXL Learning, 2018)

 Teacher will observe students and provide feedback to students who need additional

support, or give positive reinforcement feedback to students

Step 5: Follow-Through Activities (5 Minutes)

 Have students come to the carpet and ask students if they know of another way to write

numbers. Explain to students they will be required to write numbers in written form,

which is similar to expanded form, but they will use just words to write numbers.

Provide an example of the number on the board: One hundred sixty-four. Tell students

to take note there is no “and” in the number and when we say numbers, we don’t use the

word “and” when saying numbers.

 Ask students to share what their favorite activity was during the place value lessons and

why. Ask students if they have any questions they would like to ask about place value.
